    I have seen many times the praise monty and kingsley have been given on here by fans including Me and you. They are both what i call one game wonders, But they are young and they do have the skill which they have shown in the odd game. These type of players we should be keeping for the future as they learn and get better and not give them away. The both still could have been called upon to play and both can have a good impact but now we are so thin on the ground that we have very little cover......I fear when we will be hammered by someone that we will go to pieces and nobody to call upon....

    My oldest has that Cup from his days with the Reds in the U18's and U19's at Stebonheath, went to the reds after 5 seasons at Garden Village, now playing for Mumbles, though I doubt he'll stick at it as he has become so disillusioned with the crap Swansea League ..............<ok>

    There will be some considerable work for Clement this International break, Bony's fitness or the lack of it could be an issue, but I do expect him to get up to speed by the end of October, he knows the Prem, his hold up play is better than Llorente's, and he's great header of the ball at both ends of the pitch, at least we have an equally talented second striker in Abraham, and a strong midfield supply chain in Carol, Sanchez, Fer, not to mention Ayew, so it might well take 3 or 4 games for things to click, but I'm confident that we have the tools in the midfield and up front, the only issue is the back line, it's weaker than last season now with the incredibly stupid transfer out of Kingsley, with Bartley injured it just shows how easy it is for defenders to pick up injuries, Van der Hoorne I see being used more this season, but RB is our achilles heel, just hope Naughton has a better season this season.

    I see that wales online have been doing some maths on our transfer window? Yes we have made a substantial profit, and cut the wage bill with so many of our players going out on loan, 'Loan players' is the new formula this season, and I have mixed feelings, but we will have to see how it pans out, but if you take the loan signings of Abraham and Sanchez out of the squad, then in reality the squad has been further weakened and undermined, this will eventually catch up with us, so I hope this will not be a constant feature under the Yanks................<ok>

    I will then, Fer is a crap midfielder, shudder to think how he would be at RB

    Frankly would rather see an under 23 at RB rather than Fer. Although I don't dislike him sometimes in midfield.

    Im not too worried about up front or the midfield but our defence is not at all good enough and i can see most of the play in our own half and the midfield being drawn in to play a defenders role far to much.

    Nothing on BBC site, but it wouldn't surprise me. Allardyce is available.

    Looks like Wills has 'peaked early' & fvcked up, Catherine's already up the duff!!

    He's 'messed up' & won't get the paternity leave period to coincide with the World Cup..



    Wait a minute!!...
