Can you believe it? Harry has kept it very quiet about Tarbs being fit. I bet there's a few worried faces in the Burnley dressing room.
What is Harry up to here then? As I understand it, Taarabt has only just started training this week. Given how unfit Harry has been saying he was, how in hell is he fit enough to start? At least playing 3 in the centre of midfield should help us to retain possession a little better.
I am not the biggest fan of Taarabt as somebody has noticed but i will be over the moon if he help us to win today. If not then nothing has changed. C' mooooonnn u'rrrrrrrrrrrrrsssssssss!
Brilliant...Adel Taarabt with something to prove, against an okay opposition, but nothing special. Today could be great...was wondering whether to watch or not, but will be glued to it now! Last chance for Adel, but he could shine big time today.
Well, well, a supposedly overweight and unfit Taarabt starts. The plot thickens with what goes on in Harry's head. Let's hope Taarabt rips Burnley apart.
Spoken like a true Adel hater. Positioning yourself so if he plays badly you can slag him and if he does well u can trot out line's, like " I always wanted him to do well" and "I never said he didn't have ability" Go on Adel!!
I am very supfised to see Adel start. It will be very interesting to see What happens and if he takes this opportunity. Anyway come 17:00 there will be loads of Adel threads. I am now sincerely looking forward to the match!
Go Adel! What ever the complexities, I hope you past them today. After all the discussion, threads and opinions, I think we can all agree it would be great to see him score in The Hoops again.
It's gonna be interesting. I'd have thought if he was coming back it would be best in a home game, with a home crowd behind him. Looks like he's been given a last chance. I find it a staggering turn around after all of Redknapp's rants about him. I just hope that he grabs the opportunity with both hands. (And feet).
