Which squads in this Premier League are worse than ours?
In fact, which squads in any Premier League season ever are worse than ours?
Dunno list the squads if you want.
Rubbish. Its incomparable. Tom H hasnt been in the team for weeks. So that makes him a squad player??
We have enough good players to be doing a lot better than we are. Thats down to the manager.
I really don't get what you're trying to say here.
The 'squad' is every player registered to play for our first team this season, from the kids through to the starters, Tom is part of that squad, as is everyone else.
Youre making out our squad is ****, comparing it to Derbys, jesus. Its not. An ex england international has been sat on the bench for weeks. Now we have another, Mason, sat on the bench.
You've picked the only position where we have any decent cover. How about strikers? full backs? wingers? Which striker could we have brought on yesterday had Diomande needed to come off?
We've had kids on the bench for every game this season, if we have such experience and talent in the squad why are they on bench every game without fail?
It is that simple, we should have gone 3-5-2 when Robbo got injured, as it was equally suitable to protect an inexperienced Tymon.
We have no strikers cos Phelan signed Will sick note Keane. We have no Hernandez cos Phelan ****ed around with Hernandez and pissed him off. We have no Mbokani cos we have shocking discipline in the squad. Again down to Phelan.
We have no full backs cos Phelan decided to spunk the money on an unnecessary GK, Ryan ****ing Mason and Weir. Think where that 20 million could have been spent?
3 at the back would have protected an inexperienced Tymon, instead of being beasted by Anichebe.
The quality is there we just need it managing properly.
Keane was Brucies man - it was agreed in March - Brucie also wanted sicknote Powell and spat his dummy out because Ehab said no
Hernandez isn't good enough for the Prem - he wasn't good enough last time - now he's injured - if we can get anything like £10 million we should sell him
- what shocking discipline record - we've only had one sent off for discipline the other two were for hands ball
- we have no full backs because the best manager we've ever had got rid of them all so he could give his son a contract
it must really rile you that Phelan is doing so much better than fatty - that Meyler isn't being picked because he keeps passing to the opposition and that Tom is doing so well even though you think he's ****

What a soft **** you are. We signed Will Keane in March!!! GTF
Still blaming Bruce for everything. ****ing pathetic.
Odubajo got injured. He needed replacing. Silly **** Phelan bought Weir. Not a ****ing full back.
Giving AB a contract has nothing to with full back you stupid ****.
We have no idea what conditions Phelan was working under when those players were signed but I can't imagine he had sufficient time, money or control of the situation to sign the players he wanted. It was either sign those or literally not have enough players to name a full team.
I'm not saying it was brilliant recruitment by any stretch of the imagination but it was about the best that could have been done with the time available.
You literally just used Mason as an example of the quality and depth of our squad now your slagging him off, make your mind up!
How is it the best we could have done? We needed a Full back. We signed Weir, not a full back. We signed a gk we didnt need.
We signed a sick note that was pretty much assured to end in tears, which it did.
This isnt hindsight i said it at the time.
How do you know they didn't try to sign a full back? Do you think players were jumping at the chance to come here?
How much did Ehab give him to spend? How much was he allowed to offer as wages? How involved in the negotiations was he allowed to be?
Unless you can answer all of those with absolute certainty its unfair to be overly critical.
Dont be ridiculous. PL club and every player in the championship knows their wages will almost double coming here.
I think its important that you know what you have said there is in no way true. If you carrying on believing that then its easy to see why you have the opinions you do.
