    Flyer! Really?? Come on you're getting worse at just throwing things out there to suit your argument. Do we have to go over the old ground of his survival celebration nights out, tweets and banter with players, photos together having a laugh?? He may not get on with all, some he's probably not even met!

    Grifter I don't think that he is a very good player either and not as good as Faulin, Diakite or Granero, but I do think on the pitch he has a bit of fight about him that them 3 don't have at the moment. I remember against Arsenal away last season he was the one leading the troops and getting stuck in and organising the players around him.

    Yesterday we looked like a League 1 team at stages in the 2nd half with no cohesion in the play and it was great to watch a end to end game but play like that against a better side and we will get hammered. There is not one player in that side that encourages/organises whether it is by moaning or what that is getting things done for the good of the team we have no voice out there and it is really beginning to show.

    Have you ever heard of people being 2 faced?

    They tolerated him. Nothing more.

    I follow him too, and he tweets about QPR once in a blue moon- and even then it's only directed towards Amit+Tony. They got him the move to Marseille, and they employ him, so he's bound to have a decent enough relationship with them.
    The man has been poison in every dressing room he's been part of. I think OM suit him, as his abilities to speak the language aren't strong enough for him to be as disruptive as he usually is.
    I appreciate that he had a few good games for us, but who can forget how many of us on here complained about his poor performances and lack of producing a "captains display" on so many occasions. Faurlin outperformed him last season until the cruciate injury.

    Again you base it on nothing! Just sling your comments around. If there was a load of evidence suggesting they hated him you wouldn't accept me saying that's made up! Above all having spoken to a player who was to say the least indifferent to him he said that was far from representative of the team. For the record I'm not saying I like the guy but I believe he did bring something to the team and I like to see a balanced argument.

    I'd consider including him in a three man midfield but MH isn't aware that formation exists so no, he won't play for us again.

    When I look at modern day Britain all I can think about is George Orwell's Animal Farm. The Pigs have taken control.


    He got that one right, eventually.

    He can stay where he is, the unpatriotic gimp. He's the animal and I want him nowhere near my Club to defame it again.

    I agree with Col. The biggest improvement we can make to the team is put Faurlin back into it.

    To me, Hoilett is very much a 5 minutes in the game/20 minutes out of the game type of player.

    I would drop Hoilett to the bench, replace him with Faurlin to play alongside Diakite in the defensive midfield role.

    I would then move Granero further forward to play alongside Cisse & Taarabt.

    he is not a saviour
    we are not fickle
    he is a trouble making scumbag who only came for the money

    It's a shame some fans wont admit it, but our midfield would benefit from him being in it at the moment.

    Yes, please, I think I'd like something very similar. Looks like 4-2-3-1 to me, which, with slight variations, the majority of PL teams seem to play nowadays.

    Despite my on-going support of MH, this is one area of selection/formation where I would have a debate with him. And I'm sure he would instantly bow to my superior knowledge and make these changes. Not.

    With or without Faurlin our midfield ain't the main problem in terms of results or chances created.

    D'you reckon Barton could play striker?!!
