Squad is coming together

Green
Onouha, Ferdiand, Hill, Buttner,
Mackie, Faurlin, Diakite, Traore,
Cisse, Zamora

Subs: Cerny, Nelson, Young, SWP, Taarabt, Buzsaky, Derry, Johnson, Helguson,

How many more new faces do you expect to see??

Interesting that Taarabt is on the bench! <whistle>

Get Taarabt in that team Drog, and then you're talking! ;)

I put him in and then took him out about 5 times :cheesy:
Traore is the best crosser of the ball at the club and if we go with two up top thats the type of service Zamora will need. Don't get me wrong, Taarabt is a exceptional talent, but i think he plays better in behind the main striker. But its not a bad dilemma to have :)

Grrr.

I'm not desperate for Tarbs to sign a new deal just because he'll make a handy addition to the squad!

Go on. Change it a 6th time but leave him in. Pretty please with icing and cherries on top...

Taarabt sub?!! <grr> <laugh><doh>
 
Interesting player and the type of unknown players that get my heart rate up #exited.

But gutted if it's true we didn't take up the option of signing Taiwo, an absolute gem and fans favourite in the making.

I would just like to point out there is a chance Mark Hughes might not agree with me and there is every chance Taarabt will start <sorry> :emoticon-0107-sweat :)

My original post was not meant to be our strongest 11, just the shape of the squad and to question what positions you guys felt needed strengthening. I agree with QPR12thman and Flyer that Hill should be back up and a big strong centre half is needed. I would also like to see us sign a nippy right winger who can take on and beat his man and without meaning to sound greedy, who might even get a cross in!
 

Norty 'Bumbandit' tried to give me stick last week on their board until i mentioned 'away support' and it all fell silent? The guy is a muppet.
On that other board 'Cottagers Corner' most of the threads/posts are about QPR?
Amazes me that AJ and BZ are now #### because they now play for us but last season they were great at Fulham?
However
Fulham are seriously losing targets at the moment. Could be a relegation fight if they don't buy.
 
Buttner: Set for Man Utd move

Southampton, Fulham and QPR have all made bids for the 23-year-old - but now it appears he is on his way to Old Trafford in a shock move.

The defender, who was included in Holland's preliminary squad for Euro 2012, now appears to be closing on a move to link up with countryman Robin van Persie, with the deal reportedly worth five million euros (£3.9million).

Speaking to regional TV station Omroep Gelderland, Buttner admitted he was about to seal his "dream" move.

"This is really a dream come true," he said.

"It was all arranged very quickly and of course I am very delighted. Happily everything is coming to an end."

Buttner has been in dispute with Vitesse over his attempts to seal a move away from the club, and had even taken his case to the KNVB (Dutch FA) - but now he looks to have got his wish of a move away from the Gelredome.

United had long been linked with a new left-back with Everton's Leighton Baines believed to be Ferguson's top target - but now it seems Buttner is the man he wants to provide competition for Patrice Evra.
 
Code:
Man U eh? There he was in advanced talks with the Saints not so long ago. Would of been a great signing for us. Shame we could do with a good quality left-back.

Doesn't look like Fabio has a place to go back to if this comes off. He better buck his ideas up sharpish if he plans to hang around Shepherds Bush.

That my friend is a very very good point.
 
Its good news that we didnt get him, I dont want that type of player at a club that demands more money once the transfer has been agreed.
