Carlos - stay here mate - you're brilliant - we can even have threads on baked beans and the best kind of underpants. FFS/SB - stay here mate - you're one of the most reasoned, intelligent posters on here and provide balance at all times. Love your posts too. Re Tarbs - my final word on the matter (for this week anyway) is more on a comment Wenger made about Alex Hleb. Hleb gave the ball away numerous times trying to play a pinpoint, defense-splitting pass. At the end of the game, he got one right and Wenger could justify it by the whole "You've got to try to succeed" (or words to that effect). I thought Hleb was a great player to watch as I do AT. Wenger's comments only apply if there is a success to counter balance the failed attempts. In that, I totally agree with you Queens - he does have to produce and he doesn't have the circumstances to hide behind. It's only one game and no-one produced (but we can see the potential of Hoilett and others despite this and AT did a couple of sublime passes to the left side but again the end result wasn't there). I guess there must be a time where Taarabt could fall into the category of wasted talent but, for me, it's too early to do that because I still enjoy watching him do his magic too much and he's a little too young to write him off yet. It might have to happen though. That said, I do still sometimes look up Denilson (the old Betis player) on Youtube and he's as much of a wasted talent as I've ever seen. I don't do that with the success stories like the Roy Keanes of the world. I love skill I guess.
Carlos...you have to stayt..there is no way you are going on the back of one of my threds. I put you in a very select catagory alongside DT, FFS.73, Brix, Uber & roller as one of the most respected and intelligent poster on this forum. I dont bother disagree-ing with you as is like trying to convince Stephen Fry he has no idea of the the english language. I really hope you stay North, wasnt upset but you must try harder -B- DT...I agree wish your whole post in theory. I prefer la liga and have said so but all the points you made are correct, just waiting for T to deliver.... From a personal stand point; I appollogise if i have upset anyone or put anyones nose out of joint. I just (and always will) call it as i see it - deal with it or do one ! For the record I am a die hard fan and ST holder for 20+ years, and nothing would make me happier to see one of the best prspective talents in the Prem (Tarbs) perform....sadly & infuriatingly I'm still waiting... not gonna bother with insults, not worth it after 1 game...but..my OP still stands although i will concede that there were many bad players out there.... As stated !! I promise you this though, if he puts together a dozen good performances where he shine..I WILL be the first here to put my hands up and say it. i think the fact that we are all arguing about him is because of the frustration we ALL feel...?
Carlos Take a leaf out of 73's book and get your head into this ... its will all make sense of how we all feel. After a summer of ****e we then lose 5-0 nil at home ... if that isn't funny then what is? 73 ... get your arse back in line are you man or mouse ... the Accutrama you need is ...

I haven't got a ****ing clue what 1 am saying to be fair 5 ****ing 0 you bunch of ****ing pussies and you fall to ground like weaklins ... go on stay down thee feeling sorry for yourselves. Carlos you are made of stronger stuff and so are you SB ...back in line
DT...you are possibly the first (wanna be) frenchman i would stand alongside.....i tried it before but they all scarppered !! Just kidding ffs
echo in here My post was aimed at Queenie and not you DT...sorry, probably should have specified that eh?!?
Which of the two replies is the replicant that is what has my brain buzzing and where is that cross dresser?
what? Carlos is a cross dresser? Does he have anything that goes with a paisley cocktail dress that i could borrow ?
Just pondering how to maintain a bit of balance, sometimes I despise myself for wasting time on here and posting crap in response to crap........it's been a long summer, the work travel kicks in again next week and equilibrium will be restored, when the forum becomes a lifeline rather than an addiction. I'm gonna give a clue here.....it's gonna be very hot and very uncomfortable......and I don't want any bullshit from anyone......that includes me. Don't slam the ****ing door! Is there a better team talk?
Sorry Jammers, didnt realise it was for me.. I have not pinned any hope on Tarbs as i dont think he will deliver. I believe we have a strong enough team to come good and we will get better. I believe in our players but am not willing to bestow all the accolades that a possible maybe player might get !! Its a team game and our team will do it...just do go praising T when its the TEAM that do it ! Top post though Jammers!
Another thing Queens - with our much improved midfield, we have enough competition for places that we're not completely reliant on AT for a creative spark and he'll ultimately get what his performances warrant. I still think he'll come good (as you still harbour doubts) but Hughes won't put himself in a position where he's jeopardising his job just because he likes watching Adel to step-overs so he will be judged on output.
Totally agree matt, and you sir, are only just out of that elite group of posters..by a whisker.... I dont remember reading a bad, stupid post from you. I respect your points even if i dont agree with all of them. Our team is strong enough to only warrant playing T when we need too. what we need to know is..when do we need him and more importantly...WHY? I guess only MH can answer that one. Top post Matt
Sorry, I got roasted by some Geezer at the lights and my Stiletto got caught on the clutch causing me to crash. God damn Saab drivers
