    I doubt it. They were mainly Leagues 1 and 2 players I think.

    The thing is Huddlestone looks as lean currently as at any other time in his career.

    There's got to be some issue with his fitness or something if it's not the diet, I can't see Bruce being a strict disciplinarian in this so maybe it's his fault

    Somehow I thought that Proschwitz had a good reputation for taking penalties - I could be wrong. Perhaps the Cardiff GK that day had practiced more at saving penalties. Who knows.
    You may have been better highlighting the ratio of goals scored to chances presented in open play to prove your point rather than picking on one failed penalty. Whoever it was who said "always" should have done the same.
    I seem to recall we had a discussion about penalty taking a couple of years ago Peter. <cheers>

    I have been to a Norwegian league match and I can assure you it is not Sunday League. I would say League 1 would about right so this guy could possibly be a good signing.

    It's doubt about the forwards that for me are about the only reason now why City might not have a great season. If Hernandez has found his level we could storm the division.

    The ex-missus has got a blonde wig she might want to sell cheap. Think he'll go for it ?

    Really not a fan of all this public crying out, as Berahino has done today. He has shot himself right in the foot in terms of his short term future. Davies isn't to the same degree, but if you have an issue then you should go and knock on the managers door.

    I don't know the statistics about chances to goals. The penalty was an easy one to highlight the suggestion that he always took his chances. I dont even think the penalty was the only easy chance he missed!

    Maybe, I do think the stamina of some of our players is behind where it should be, it's a visual thing that some teams go for the full 90 plus injury time. Last season we visibly wilted after 80 odd minutes - I'm sure we concede a lot of goals in the last 5-10 minutes.

    Davies was answering a question that's all
    No big deal I don't think

    What an underwhelming signing. Looks like Bruce has spun his globe and signed somebody from where his finger ends up.

    He was replaced by Harry Redknapp who took Tom and made him the key midfield figure in a side that qualified for the champions league, a key figure who captained Spurs in their champions league victory over then holders of the competition Inter Milan.

    Huddlestone is far better than what Steve Bruce is getting from him, almost certainly down to the dreadful style of football we play.

    Looks like we are sending out Luer on loan. Shame I would rather use in than this Norwegian.

    Then it's up to Huddlestone to show how good he is. Why doesn't he ever take a game by the scruff and be the match winner that we all know he has the potential to be? Can't pin it all on SB - once the players cross the white line and all that.

    Where have you seen that? I would have given him a game against Swansea since he's scored twice in the C1C.
