    I've said it before but Traore is good for nothing except selling drugs and unlocking stolen phones.

    now that has ruined my weekend..............................................................






    just read the report and he is being rested as a precaution..

    A precaution in case he cannot get to the bank to take out his wage for the month?

    Bloke has had a bad knee injury
    I actually think he could be a good asset for us

    A good asset as what? He'd be incompetent selling programmes. He has the attention span of a spaniel.

    I am not certain that any of our players are safe from our fans

    What does that say about us?

    Attaching yourselves to Austin and Faurlin where do you go from there?

    Time to understand the illness

    I agree with your position about the nature of our support but you haven't actually answered Watford's question. It seems that Traore's talents are the only thing that you and Queenslander ever really agreed about. It's clearly lost on the rest of us so please elucidate. In what way is he a good asset?

    You can count all the times he has exhibited these traits since August 2011 on your fingers and toes. Wenger got rid for a reason. He doesn't have the minerals.

    I'll give you that he can cross a good ball at pace. I've seen him do it. Twice. In four years. And both led to goals including the memorable one at the Etihad. Trouble is I've never seen him come anywhere near that since then. Are you sure you've not been on the bottle and confused him with the original DT? Now there was someone who could run like a hare and place crosses on a centre forward's head with the precision of a laser guided missile. Not sure about the other two though.. He seemed to lose a few yards under Redknapp and every time I've seen him play I thought he jumped for crosses as though he was afraid the ball might actually hit him

    Come now. Let's be fair. We must all be grateful for the memory of that special moment in May 12 when he bombed past the City full back and delivered a perfect cross for your very own Jamie Mackie to head us into the lead. That was one of those moments those of us who were there will remember until we die. A bit like the OBZ moment at Wembley although that one was much to do with the fact that it was totally unexpected at the time. I was sat perfectly behind it and knew it was in and that we'd won the moment he hit it.

    Very good attributes, but not for a left-back who needs to be a good defender first and foremost. We signed him immediately after Arsenal lost 8-2 at ManUre, that might give you a clue about his defensive capabilities. Perhaps a good coach may have turned him into a reasonable lower division winger but he has been a peripheral figure for around four years now, he's clearly not up to it.

    Another one who was give a lucrative contract who stayed for the money. THAT is the cancer that is the real 'illness' afflicting our club...

    That''s bollux. It''s one of the less pleasing aspects of human nature and features prominently at all pro football Clubs and any big business. Not a cancer just the way us animals are.

    brought tears to my eyes however I do agree that it could offend animal lovers. .
