His comment on Skrtel was less than complimentary about his ability with the ball. They basically targeted him as a weak link by pressing up high whenever the ball was going to go to him. Given he is not fancied now anyway i can only assume he will go once we get another body in.

You can take it for granted that it will be pointed out if the signings are made so expect it if they aren't. And if they aren't made and the questions are asked, don't be dare infer that the posters are taking satisfaction out of it. They are passionate about our club and they don't believe that it is being run as well as it should and some even think that the owners are consciously misleading fans. If either points in the previous sentence are even slightly true, they are perfectly entitled to shout about it from the rooftops.

Mr Alan wrote: » Milner, who has been a stand out player for good spells at Man City over the last few years, wouldn't do for us. Not up to the high standards of Rodgers, Borini, Allen & Co. Honestly, it's like some people here want us to be incredibly average.

Mr Alan wrote: » He could play in midfield in place of Allen or Henderson. With ease. And be an instant upgrade on both. He could also play out wide & be an instant upgrade on Aspas.
