If it wasnt for the two games against utd i would disagree. But this club will have to survive for a season without CL football , just look at city they have had no trouble getting up there without it. But its not ove yet. just wish we could get to these games and see. as we dont have another PL game for a while. Any news on the Bham game yet?

It all depends on Champions League football. These type of players would get snapped up by the team's in the CL . I think If Trained well Neymar could become one of the best in the world. Its weird seeing so many Brazilians linked with the PL.

I cant see us putting much effort into the compertition i think we would consentrate on the Premier League.

For anybody they need time to settle in even if they have PL experiance. remember he is only used to gerrard passing to him

All i want from this is a simple good performance with maybe a 1-0/2-0 scoreline nothing fancy just get back to winning.

Agree with this 100% and i can honsestly say ive not enjoyed this season at all but even if we where in league 1 i wouldnt stop support this club as most of you wouldnt either. The winning has spoilt alot of our fanbase and got us alot more fans, but its the ones that stick around and support the team when times are bad that are the fans we want. just wish spurs would stop winning The main thing that gets to me is the press there just wating for us to fail i know i should ignore the bullshit but its everywhere.

i hope we look at this thread and laugh at the end of the season. Though for the first time in years its a real possibillity. The worst thing is its out of our control at the moment we need other teams to drop points. Though if we can get some points of utd and beat the yids at the bridge things should be alrite.

There is no chance he will go before the end of the season , he would have to be paid off and i dont think roman wants to do that. Also there is no one else available. I also would like a long term manager here , i though it would be Carlo last year but now i have doubt i just hope he can turn things around and prove all his critics wrong.

Welcome

But the question is does he have a choice ? he should be first asked but i cant see it being that way. If this was happend to Jose he would of kicked up a fuss Carlo just sits back and carry's on coaching no matter what is happening around him.

His not going to get us 15/20 goals a season. Aslo he is no spring chicken himself he will be 31 in may.

The worrying thing is could this be Frank's last season ? who could possibly come in and get 20 goals a season (bar this) from midfield.

Lets hope your right and this squad starts playing like the best squad in the league.

Good read , maybe Ray was alot more valuable than anyone thought .

Yeah i thought it was somthing like that i heard. so all we need to do is win the CL this year and were quids in ... how hard can that be

The main issue is all the top players want to play in the champions league , hence why torres came here. if we fail to qualify i dont see us getting the likes of lukaku , he will go to citeh (they will buy him just to stop someone else) etc and you will noticy cheeky bids coming in for our other top players. Even if we do make fourth and spuds finnish 5th and they win the CL (i know but its a pot luck cup) do we still get booted out ?

Spot on , this is the most fustrating thing but the only other option we seem to use is a long ball from cech....

Im always trying to look at the positives from a performace and i though we played wll yesterday much better than against liverpool. We are just struggling to break down defences we need fresh ideas.

To be honest we didn’t turned up against Liverpool we didn’t deserve to loose but we didn’t do enough to win and with all the shots we had against Fulham we should be scoring against the likes of them in open play we can’t reply on penalties. our track record with them isn’t great either

i dont think we will ever see this franks a given starter until he cant play no more and this is one of the reasons we are getting no where. some of our players seem to have a golden ticket to play theres no preasure if carlos was to drop one and play josh it just might get them to book up there ideas but its also a risky way to get performances.

exactly , can be a bit of a pre maddona though not like we havent got enough of them. though if we could get Sanchez - Torres - Neymar id be a happy man

i must say rammy has impressed me lately he really is a great prospect for the future he just seems to run forever i think he made one mistake yesterday and if it wansnt for luiz he would be my man of the match. We could really do with ballack deco and joe cole (type) back ups for when our main players arent performing.

Would that be because Torres cant play on Saturday

I just think its a big ask in getting points off Spuds utd and city in our current form.

What i think we lack is someone willing to cross the ball , Flo always cuts inside and he sometimes wastes posession ash was on the wind in a great position to cross but he decided to shoot instead we need to get the ball in the box and let torres and Drogba do what there paid for. though Drogba does have a tendancy to drift out wide which is fustrating when no ones in the box...
