    I've "grasped the concept", thank you. It's not as black and white as you make it out though. We didnt use Kadar once last season and he is clearly the replacement for Campbell within the squad.

    Wats so hard about understanding the names on the team sheet this time last year. To now? eh?

    U trying to get me to snap?

    Why u on about Kadar? He was here last season! And why has the 4th choice Centre back become so important?

    Because weve seen him at LB and CB and not let the side down. Unlike Campbell and Perch

    Because the comparison you're making is irrelevant, you cant say we havent improved our centre backs for example because Taylor plays there now over Williamson, and we had them both last year. We didnt have a season with Carroll and Ben Arfa, you may as well say Gosling played.

    Er, no it wasn't. We had neither Tiote or Ben Arfa at the start of last season.

    What?! What the hell is this? hahahaha

    This is brilliant. Total lack of understanding of the concept of This time last year heading into the season. To This time right now heading into the season.

    Im actually enjoying this. Keep going.

    Anyone else want to make a comment?

    Exactly, the plan was to play Smith at DM all year.

    Are you ******ed? You're just trying to make our team last season seem great, and the one we have now seem ****, so it will emphasise your point. What relevance does it have who we had going into the season? Because I think you'll find Smith and Perch were in that line up, and Ben Arfa and Tiote werent.

    So you're comparing the team at the start of September last year to the team at the start of August this year?

    Surely we should be fair and compare the team at the start of August 2010 and the team now. Right?

    Hahaha I love it. I absolutely love it.

    The team I put up was arguably the strongest team come the end of August. Not based on actual line ups throughout the season, injuries gained, or whatever.

    I tell you what. I'll wait until 1st September to provide the exact same point, seeing as I am inundated with more lack of foresight.

    I made the mistake. I apologise.

    Haha. Cracking.

    Knit-picking about certain positions like 4th choice centre back. Totally missing the point of the actual article.

    I love u all
