I can't understand not giving N'Doye at least 10 to 15 mins towards the end of the game. We sign a lad to score goals why not put him on? Surely he is fit enough for at least 10 mins. I understand the need to take at least a point out the game but it was there for the taking. We are playing Bournemouth for ****s sake. Go for it!!! My understanding is that were were going to sign the players in this window that would hit the ground running? Our first signing lasted 20 mins and was horrendous and didn't make the bench for his second game. Our next signing can't be given 10 mins? Instead Rodwell came on....I just couldn't believe it. If a player isn't fit for 10 mins then it's going to take a couple of months to get up to speed....by then we are ****ed and the season is over. Three signings for $750,000....hope Sam is a miracle worker because we are going to need another one.....
The side is terrible right now, and that includes Sam. N'Doye did very well last year for Hull, proven scorer, saw a lot of him. He can be hard to handle. Ridiculous that Rodwell was subbed on over him. Unless he was hurt, l can't imagine why you wouldn't give him his chance. Bournemouth was happily absorbing the pressure by then. Mind boggling.
When Rodwell came on to me it basically stated our intentions were to take a point. I understand the need to take a point if you can't get all three but when you are playing Bournemouth at home I would hope the belief would be we can still get three points. The EPL is slightly different this year in that many bottom teams are taking points off the higher teams such as Swansea's win today against Everton. Draws may not be enough soon....
The next week in the transfer market will determine our fate. It's not looking good at the moment but still time left. Got to get another striker to score goals. Ship out Rodwell, Fletcher, Gomez, Roberge, Mavrias etc, etc. if that happened I would be happy lol
I'm happy with our strikers. I want creativity and competence on the ball. I want the AM we still haven't replaced adequately since Sess left. Bout time that slot was filled.
What about bring Sess back? He's not a regular for them and surely we could afford it lol? Maybe we would offer $50,000 for him...
When we had Sess, yes he was our best CAM, but he was always better wide. He was one of those players where three managers couldn't find the right position to get consistency out of him. And that's my problem with Sess, consistency. It would be a no for me. I'd rather go for rosicky on loan and if we stay up invest heavily in a permanent AM who's naturally a central player.
What about Felliani from Man Utd on loan till end of season. Aren't you United looking to unload him? Would add a bit height and some goals.
Don't know mate but always thought he looked better playing deeper. Him next to M'Villa would be Awesome. Cat's would be well and truly benched.
My thought would be Defoe up top with Felliani just behind him. Two wide man with M'Vila and Catts in mid. A sort of 4 4 1 1 type of thing. If we are chasing a game drop him deeper and say take Catts off. Bring N'Doye on and go 4 4 2
