    No, but I don't think he's so good that Pardew is currently ****ing over him. He's not that good and I hope we go for better <ok>

    Don't think anyone has said he's ****. More that he doesn't seem better than what we have, which doesn't seem unfair.

    Very much like Scott Dann and Williamson.

    It's only a replacement for Perch ffs thats all we need one for. I'm happy with our first choice CBs so he'd do.

    On Tomkins, I only want us bringing in a centre back that's better than Williamson, and Tomkins most certainly isn't.

    Agreed ... and as such isn't worth £4m or more. There will be Williamson class defenders available for a fraction of that amount.

    I cant really comment on Tomkins as I havent seen him before, but I'd be wary of buying from the Championship, Routledge and Smith were some of our best players then.

    Tomkins is Williamson/Scott Dann quality. We should be aiming for better. Tomkins is a good defender but we don't just wanna will our squad with a load of good-ish players, we want quality, and quality to be able to replace quality.

    If next season we had Coloccini playing along side someone of quality, with Saylor challenging for a place and Williamson as cover, then I'd be over the moon.

    First half of the season he was class, that is frankly terrifying. We've come a long way in 3 years.

    He gave his all but he was always ****e really. I'd say Nolan highlighted the gap between the EPL and CCC more. He looked like Gerrard in the CCC but was non-existant in the Prem (even though he still got the goals). Smith was non-existant in the CCC but Nolan managed to carry him, IMO. Definitely come along way when you consider we had Guthrie-Smith-Nolan and we now have Tiote-Cabaye-HBA!

    Nolan is probably a better example, says a lot that he was carrying someone in midfield.

    I see Tomkins as being Bramblesque. Capable of putting in an outstanding tackle or interception one minute and then dropping a massive clanger or being totally out of position the next. A second rate Bramble basically.

    We need somebody better.
