Charlie Adam

Off to fulham, makes sense good replacement for Danny murphy probably same shirt size to

[Redspin]

he plays in a three for chelsea so he's always going to look alright but in a two he looks lightweight and unsuited to the premiership. He is very mobile and moves the ball quickly and on the continent its fine but in this country youve got to be able to put your foot in when needed.

if meireles had come here at 22 then he could have adjusted his game to add a bit of bite but the worst thing about him was that despite looking like a psycho on meth he was actually a pussy.

In fact he spent his entire career in Portugal as a defensive midfielder so was well used to tackling. It was only when he came to us that he was always played out of position

Have to say that wee LDP has done a right proper job on poor old Matt there.

but does he look like rick moranis?

doubt it.

I must admit I wanted us to sign him.

Going forward he is decent, defensively he is abysmal.

doubt it.

This is the second Google images result for "Dane Perkins":



Incidentally, I think the bloke in the red top is Michael Owen.

No, no, no - your mind probably hasn't evolved enough to understand matts points. If it had, you would see that matt has never been wrong. Ever.

and my sympathies to dan. You've gone down in matts estimation!! That's what you get for posting in a conciliatory tone! Hang in there mate. You will get through this

I know, repeating the same incorrect **** over and over again. I mean why would I get pissed off with that level of ignorance? And how dare I say I have concerns over a player after seeing him play so spectacularly badly but make a caveat that I'd have to watch more of him, I mean, the fact that Dan failed to read this is clearly my fault.

And then how dare I not think good of Veloso a player I think is lazy (and has been called as such by his previous manager), clearly disagreeing with Dan makes me a parody of myself and means I haven't watched Veloso.

Please feel free to tell me which of the players we signed that I dismissed as not being good enough have surpassed those expectations.

re: Mertesacker, he has had half a season in a new league before getting seriously injured (after being Arsenal's best player in December as well) but why let that get in the way

However, if it pleases you Dan, I apologise profusely for the not being happy with the decline in the quality of our players.

Yes, very conciliatory wasn't it, I mean clearly my opinion not fitting with his makes me wrong.

On the plus side Kris, I didn't know you knew words like conciliatory, though. 5 syllables, I am impressed.

What's wrong with being a pussy? sexists.

Boy, this thread escalated quickly ...

Haha does that mean ive gone up in your estimation?

regarding Adam, he's clearly not consistent enough to be a first choice midfielder for a club with top 4 ambitions. But there's no denying, he makes things happen. I think he'd do a good job for a mid table club. I think his stock is still reasonably high, and I don't think we'd have much trouble finding a buyer for him.
