He should be playing Huddlestone for me in these types of games. I wouldn't have Tom in the side against pressing, quick teams like Arsenal or Liverpool but he keeps the ball well and can pick a pass well, we miss that at the moment.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/30257142 interesting to see the team we had last time we played West Brom almost two years ago - almost same points - same result against West Brom, still in bottom 3 - Phelan certainly isn't doing any worse than Bruce, yet he had a big flag saying 'In Bruce We Trust' and reading this thread, Phelan's a useless **** - and just as a reminder based on the same fixtures - Phelan's on 11 points, Bruce managed 7 - next game Newcastle at home, Bruce lost that, then Boro away, Bruce lost that as well
but he had the tactual nous to change things at 1/2 time. Diamonde has to start the next game, you couldnt expect him to play 90 minutes after he was suspended - he had to get back up to match fitness.
Only 4 mentions of the Bruce word. you must be getting near to getting over him. WTF did that uselsss ****ing Manc **** bring Meyler on. What a useless ****. Why bring him on he's ****ing ****. What sort of a **** would do that.
I agree - unfortunately Bruce (5) gave him a new contract and we don't have anyone else - personally I would tell him to go on gardening leave until his contracts up - or tell him to play Pokeman with Junior - and yes he was **** for the few seconds he was on
If Allams valuation of £100 - £130 million is based on Hernandez at £20 million, Mason at £13 million and Livermore at £8 million then he's totally deluded - furthermore, Snodgrass at £9 million with a contract that ends at the end of the season is worth almost £0 in reality - we must be first port of call on Levy's to sell list - I was hopeful about Mason, unfortunately he's failed to make any impression whatsoever
I don't really think he can't fit in. He's a centre mid supposedly. The problem is we have no wingers. Presumably we'll go back to playing Diomande wide left and the shape we started the season with for the next league game. It'll be interesting to see whether Mason starts in the middle or misses out if that does happen. He really should be our best midfielder.
Meyler touched the ball half a dozen times yesterday and every one of them was a pass to a West Brom player, he looked like a fan who'd won a competition to come on and play a few minutes.
Unless you choose to believe that Mason was hooked because he was apparently ill... in which case thats debatable...
Which is why he'll be gone in the January window. No contact offered to him would encourage him to stay at this cesspool unless we had new owners and assurances.
