Lol good point, but I think we're a bit more pragmatic than given credit. Our 2 man frustrations this year have been RDM tactics.. 1) Playing Ramires as a winger 2) Not benching Torres That has certainly led to a massive amount of frustration on my part - skewing my posts negatively. Lets see how RDM responds. I've said it before and will say it again, if we can't get Falcao in Jan - lets look for a decent loan signing - there must be some great forwards available for loan. Spurs got Adebayor - ok he's not brilliant and has issues, but he can score goals... Wonder if we could get Ballotlli on loan? Him and Mancini have fell out big time, without Mancini winding him up, and with RDM calming Italian influence, could be a great bit of business?

A Cap a day helps you work, rest and play? Edit: Also hasn't our dip in form coincided with Caps absence? We'd be doing the team a huge favour by reinstating him

Yup - at least think we should consider an EMERGENCY LOAN SIGNING or something - there has to be some good 'older' Strikers in Spain/Germany/Holland etc available for Loan... Just anybody! It's unlikely that we will get a great signing in January and I agree - we should see how things pan-out over the season - I just cannot see (as much as I want) Falcao coming in Jan A Loan signing will help - I still dont think that Lukaku is ready yet, he might be a good sub when defenders are tired... but not ready to lead the line...

That wasn't all Bertrands fault, he was left exposed a few times by Hazard not tracking back. Don't get me wrong AC is an awesome player and is a true legend, but my opinion is that his performances have dropped a little since the contract wrangling. However a rest may have done him good! I hope if he plays he has an awesome game, if not hope Bertrand has one too.

I still wish we'd signed Berbatov - Fulham could have won this match and Berbatov was instrumental in everything... 6 million? Amazing bit of business... Loans window ends Thursday, surely there are some Loan strikers we could get?

Our Serbian girl speaks some good sense like (ran out of likes today)!!!

Ok Danny might miss a few until he gets his eye in, but ask any 'Expert' about Studge and they will tell you he takes the ball early, which is a great thing, unsettles defenders and keepers, he doesn't need a touch... I honestly believe he could be a great striker with more games and the team we have, do we need another Strikerv- sure, but lets give Danny a chance before condemning him...

Because he's the manager... He must deliver a strategy for the club on players, acquisitions and loans. I cannot see that he was never consulted, that just seems unbelievable! I think it's being used as a smokescreen to deflect any negativity towards him. He's also been talking about Falcao, so if we get him is that RDM or the Board?

Is Cole fit? I think Bertrand is in better form than Cole! Since the contract problems, Cole has looked shaky IMHO

Agreed - but he was playing as a Winger! So not even a CF. And when RDM took over, he sidelined Sturridge... So he did well and CAN do well again. I will eat my words, but I'm 100% confident with some game time he will be scoring again... Plus his movement DOES open up space

Like (out of likes) I said before SURELY RDM has influence in this, which is why I think he is a little naive... Yes, it's not good business to have players sitting around earning fortunes, but it's not good business not being in the top 3 - thank god Arsenal, Spurs, Liverpool and Newcastle are shit - but that won't last forever... Hope we can get the players lifted and ready for Juve match.

Wow I remember that night against Lazio I love stats - let's smash them to pieces!

Also, know some old Pro's - from a former job and they all rate Danny... As former Pro's - they should know... As for Selfish, I asked them about it and they said, "You should worry if your striker isn't selfish" - that kinda sums up Torres doesn't it...

Yeah if Torres had done that - we'd have had 4 million pages of how great his movement is, how he moves defenders around and at least 4 or 5 images of how well he did... But because it's Danny, he's a C**T for missing the chances... Honestly... I just dont get it... Danny was our best player under AVB and he tries every game - what more can you ask for?

Drogba is not the answer... Sorry - but he isn't.... We need to give Studge time and buy/loan another striker... Having Didier will encourage us to just lump balls forward - thought we were moving away from that? Also Drog retired as a hero, coming back is a risk - he could be shit and then tarnish his reputation... We need to look forward not back...

LIKE (run out of likes)

Yup - it's typical someone ALWAYS has the game of their life against us But Sturridge looked as good as ANY striker - he has pace, dribbling ability and just needs some time... Look at Giroud - couldn't score in a Brothel, Arsenal fans and Manager stuck with him and he's knocking them in for fun now...!!!

LMAO... He is a quality player though at Youth Level - there's a HUGE GAP between that and the Premiership... He could be awesome in a few years... I'd take Balotelli on LOAN right now from City - he could easily score plenty for us and Mancini wants out... IF we get him on Loan can get some better deals in the summer... 2 Strikers on Loan would be great in January if we don't sign Falcao / Cavanni etc?

Im with you guys... GIVE studge 3-4 games and watch the goals roll in.... He's proven he can score goals with Bolton... BOLTON - they dont have the players we have.... The ease that Mata and Oscar found him with bodes really well If anybody had cared to follow him - he needs game time to sharpen up - LIKE NEARLY ALL Strikers (except Hernandez and Solskjaer - 2 amazing exceptions to the rule)... Give him some games - bench Torres - who has got progressively worse, put him out of his misery... Danny SHOULD start against Juve - he WILL SCORE - Anybody want to bet otherwise?

Anybody wishing to see Leeds scum - playing vs Millwall today 13:00 kick off

I think what didierforever was asking, is that previously in the competition have last years champions failed to make it to the knockout stages - wasn't a specific question about the match itself...?

Yup agree - Luiz just isn't cutting it at CB... Strongest pairing IMHO is Iva + Terry... Then Iva + Cahill We should try Luiz in DP - who knows could e the making of him...

LOL HUTCHO happy This equals out our defeat

Cmon!!!! YEEEEES GET IN FUCK YOU FERGIE !!!!

I know great chance and 4+Ref Time minutes of extra time.... C'mon Canaries!!!!
