    Ah jaysus. I predict an upturn in bannings very soon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,629 ✭✭✭googled eyes


    Rumour has it that Joe Allen figured we had too many midfielders

    He wanted to break back into the team

    He got injections for that heel injury, returned to training, and then broke his other foot.

    Injections are never a good thing, likely means the injury hasn't gone away. I know it's the other foot he broke but I believe if someone isn't right then it makes them susceptible in general. Like it might effect their running style, balance, how they "take" a tackle.

    I think that's partly Sturridge's issue anyway.

    Well he has plenty of time for that injury to heal properly now anyhow.

    Lucas, Allen, can, rossiter, other chap from midweek, Milner, coutinho, ferminio, Ibe.... Plenty of options imo, Henderson is a loss but not anywhere near sturridge levels... These things happen.

    "Lucas, Allen, can, rossiter, other chap from midweek, Milner" are our options for the middle. Piss poor. Plenty of options but no quality.

    Coutinho/Firmino would be destroyed in the middle. Not sure why you've added Ibe in as an option.

    Soft and easy to play against in general, and I agree about Henderson, we are already lacking in the middle.

    Milner isn't quality? Interesting.

    Well lads.

    So you still in love with Rodgers or have you seen enough?

    He's a midfielder, winger .... advanced player. Why wouldn't I list him?

    I listed all our midfield options, I wasn't suggesting all the listed players are direct Henderson replacements.

    awful news but hopefully means dropping coutinho back a bit deeper like the season before last.

    So back to the big picture, Arsenal 3 pts ahead and we have a game in hand, Chelsea same as us, 7 pts and we have a game in hand.

    Utd (3 pts ahead of us) playing away to away to S'ton tomorrow and we are at home to Norwich.

    Spurs at home to C' Pal are a point behind us currently.

    Everton a pt ahead are away to Swansea.

    3 pts tomorrow for Liverpool and we are not in a bad position after 6 PL games imo.

    So another terrible performance but a 1-0 win and everything will be rosy?

    No, he didn't say that, he said a win and we're not in a bad position after 6 games.

    Indeed, even if we win 5 - 0 or so everything won't be rosy. We need a run that yields a decent PL points haul to keep us close to or better than 2ppg and we nee to profgess in the EL.

    At the moment things arent even rosey for man city after losing the lead & the game midweek.

    One can be fully behind the current regime without thinking all is rosey.

    Thanks, I can read. I also don't just look at a league table to blindly judge how things are going. I want to look forward to seeing us play with a sense of excitement and hope rather than dread.

    Well not really. Fully behind means that you are happy with everything they are doing (within reason), and there are so many things we are doing wrong now that it's hard to be fully behind the current regime.

    Considering you deem not in a bad position and everything rosey to be the same I'll happily disregard your definition of fully behind :) no doubt you can read but one needs to complement that with comprehension too.

    To summarise, I don't think everything is rosey but I am fully behind the current regime, yes really.

    How did you draw the conclusion that he said everything would be rosy with a scrappy 1-0 win?

    Who looks at the table and blindly judges how things are going?

    If Liverpool thrash Norwich will that mean everything is rosy to you as it will give you something to look forward to?

    I've heard of women's menstrual cycle's synchronising before, but this is the first time I've seen those of the posters in all the clubs threads & forums do so


  • Subscribers Posts: 32,867 ✭✭✭✭5starpool


    I deem everything rosy the same as everything is grand, not everything rosy is everything is fantastic.

    I probably took a little liberty with the use of everything is rosy, but still. I hate change for the sake of change, but I think we are beyond that now into where we just need change (provided it's not a wasted opportunity of course).

    There is still a chance Rodgers can pull things around where the majority opinion swings back in his favour, and I'd be happy to have that happen, but I see far too many signs that this won't happen.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,347 ✭✭✭✭Grayditch


    I'd love to be able to look at tables and think 3 more points and it isn't so bad, but I've seen us actually play this season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,983 ✭✭✭✭NukaCola

    Decent nothing more


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,296 ✭✭✭shamrock55


    Our midfield is one of the poorest in the league even with henderson in it, should be an interesting 8wks ahead

    I was going to say its as bad a Midfield I've seen in 10 years but we did have a Spearing/Adam midfield partnership.....shudder.......at least that was only because of injuries.

    Yep. I was delighted when we signed him but it's becoming very obvious he isn't a central midfielder.
