  1. There's an easy to use software that does it for you: http://gyazo.com/ All you have to do after you install it is open it, drag to select the size of your screenshot, and it will upload it automatically. After that, copy the image link and paste it through the image dialogue box inside this post box
  2. We have a heap of players that can play there though. Mata Hazard Marin Malouda Ramires Kakuta Sturridge The true winger died out a long time ago. True wingers don't cut inside and shoot. Even as far as potential goes, Hazard/Mata/De Bruyne and to a lesser extent, Sturridge, represent players who can get a whole lot better in a short space of time.
  3. Isn't he left footed? Well, whatever the case, just put him on the same side as his preferred foot.
  4. Simple solution; play him as a left winger where it'll be much harder for him to cut inside and shoot. I absolutely loathe wingers that play like that. The inside forward died out for a reason.
  5. Quite right, for some reason our expensive strikers struggle while our relatively cheaper ones in Drogba and Anelka shine.
  6. As a down payment. Pay 40 million over 5 seasons at 8 million a year. How on earth is another winger a good signing? I don't care if we sign Messi, we don't need another winger. We already have, what, 7 at the club. How's he going to play/develop? Why sign him to send him straight back out on loan again? We've invested enough in potential over the last 2 seasons in the attacking third of the pitch. Time to turn our attention to defence and midfield, where we're lightweight.
  7. What the hell are we doing, signing every winger on the planet? 8 million would be better spent as a down payment on a class midfielder, or perhaps a loan of Sahin.
  8. Wigan could do with a goalscorer like Lukaku to keep them up. Better them than West Brom.
  9. It'll give him some competition. Put more pressure on him to perform, rather than now, where he knows he only has one threat, who seems to be out of favour with the manager.
  10. If Celtic don't have a 15 point lead by Christmas they should consider sacking their manager.
  11. Hi If that's not the best milestone post in the history of the world, I don't know what more can be done to secure that crown.
  12. Actually since Mata and Hazard are adept through the middle we should look to be really fluid- changing position every 2 minutes or so, confusing man-marking systems.
  13. Haha 63 million could buy us two world class midfielders and solve a lot of problems for us.
  14. United fans are a hypocritical bunch. Rooney didn't cost a whole world less in 2004... Enjoy capitalism. It's the best, we swear.
  15. But the second goal was just a cross gone wrong, and the keeper was awful. It wasn't predetermined, planned or executed surgically anything like the French goal. Having said all that, it was a lot more spectacular than the free kick!
  16. I really like this idea, RD. Good write up Agreed, regardless of what formation we play we need a fast tempo.
  17. Wait, Coutinho left the club? No wonder I haven't been impressed by him of late, I didn't even know where he was
  18. His finish is unreliable, though, and that's what we can't afford. His runs are nothing out of the ordinary, every striker at a biggish club should be expected to do that. He's not Inzaghi.
  19. Cavani would be a very good addition I feel. Experienced, proven, one for the big matches. A cool head to guide the development of Sturridge and Lukaku in the absence of any senior striking role model (no, Torres is not a role model to Sturridge/Lukaku- if he is, I feel sorry for their careers).
  20. Torres or Sturridge plus money, yes; not Meireles. We can't replace a midfielder with a striker, we're already so lightweight in centre midfield. We have 3 proven centre midfielders, one of whom loses the ball habitually (Ramires) when played there; one who is 35 and one who many of our fans still believe is the weakest link in the squad. We need Meireles, he's by far our best 4th choice midfielder. If we let go of him we need to replace him as soon as possible with an experienced centre midfielder, Romeu, Essien, et al won't cut it for the upcoming season. We cannot make the same mistake Carlo made and replace our experienced backups with youth, that just won't work unless our youth are world beaters, which they're not by any stretch of the imagination.
  21. Coutinho didn't really impress me, in honesty. Though to be fair not many from Inter have since Jose left. The great one still taunts us and Inter from beyond the 'grave'.
