This would presumably be after Van EPrsie has nut megged him?
Besides, i'm sure the favour would be repayed.

Doubt it. Never seen Van Persie nutmeg anyone.

Exactly, but the resulting red cards would damage your team more than whoever Bardsley was playing for, since he's $h!t.

[quote="Zack_thfc"]Key player: Ronaldo again
Youngster to have an impact: Nani, Anderson take your pick
Best Transfer: Nani, Fits in perfectly with Rooney and Ronaldo, can play left right or upfront.
Worst Transfer: the 9 yr old aussie
Top Goalscorer: Rooney just
Player that are not good enough and still needs to be sold: Everyone is pretty good now Smith and richardson are gone
Weakness in your team: Goalkeeper is dodgy.....thats it
Prediction for the coming season..
Head Says: 1st by 5 points or so, cl semi or final f.a cup semi or final carling cup final

Agreed on everything except the weakness - that's in goal.Zack_thfc wrote:Key player: Berbatov again
Youngster to have an impact: Taarabt, exceptionally talented player, has good passing skills, can dribble and has awareness of a experienced player, he will have a impact this season, very exciting prospect...though Boetang does come close...
Best Transfer: Koubol, due to King's constant injury problems and with Rocha and Gardner as back up, not to mention if we want to be sucessful, we will end up playing over 50 games, he will be our best signing. From what I've seen, he hasn't all the quality to be a quality Centre back and his a natural leader, with King's absense, thats vital...
Worst Transfer: Really don't think we've made any bad signings at all...
Top Goalscorer: Bent, with the servive he will get, I think he will be our top goal scorer, but the good thing is, it could be any of our 4 strikers...
Player that are not good enough and still needs to be sold: Murphy, Mido and Ghaly and maybe Gardner...
Weakness in your team: Still think that our left side of our midfield might well be our Achilles Heel. Malbranque is a Very good player and we will definetly keep him, but we still don't have the natural width, because he isn't the sort of player that bombs down the flank and puts the loads of crosses in, he cuts back too much...so we are still in need of a left winger to be complete or even a creative left-sided e.g Quresma...(one can only dream)......Some might say we need a better attacking midfieler in the centre, but I have every faith that Jenas will step up and one of the youngsters to have a impact...
Prediction for the coming season..
Head Says: Narrowly missing out on 4th place but winning the F.a Cup....

Yep completely forgotten bout our weakness with regards to Robinson, but with him unfortunetly being our "undisputed no.1", no point in commenting bout him, with Jol unlikely ever to sell hi on...
O yeh, have you seen the highlights of Taarabt against partick? I know its only a friendly and the opponents not all that, but boy is he going to be class....

Key player: Cech - Best goalkeeper in the world imo. Although Cudicini is decent cover (it was unfortunate to have him injured at the same time as Cech last season), Cech is worth 10 points to us simply because of his presence in goal. As long as he stays fit, we have a very good chance of winning the Prem and the CL.
Youngster to have an impact: Mikel - Although he really did shine towards the end of last season, I'm expecting him to push up another level this season and really establish himself as one of the best youngsters in the Prem (if not Europe). Playing with Essien and Ballack will help him substantially, I'm just hoping that he isn't benched for Lampard's luxury.
Best Transfer: Alex - International CB and arguably one of the best around. He should convert to the Prem much better than Boulahrouz.
Worst Transfer: Difficult but I'm gonna say Ben Haim, simply because his time on the pitch will be limited, being 4th choice to Terry, Carvalho and Alex. A good free transfer but more just a backup player.
Top Goalscorer: Drogba (20-25).
Player that are not good enough and still needs to be sold: Hilario, Ferreira.
Weakness in your team: Right-Back. If Alves comes in and is a success it should be fine, but it's still the area where we are vulnerable.
Prediction for the coming season.. 1st or 2nd in the Prem; at least the CL quarter-finals; at least quarter-finals in FA Cup and Carling Cup.
Head Says: Prem champions; CL S-F; FA Cup S-F; Carling Cup Q-F.
Heart Says: Quadruple.

Yeah, the kid's very talented
Do you think Routledge can establish himself FINALLY with us? I have my fingers crossed...

That's a hell of a statement, given that a keeper can't win you a match. At best he converts 0 pts to 1 or 1 point to 3, and all keepers depend on their defensive unit.
I'd say 6pts maybe.

I don't think so. If you think back to some of the games where Hilario played over the Christmas period you will see that he cost them many points. The Flamini shot at Stamford Bridge wasn't even that good and most good keepers would have saved it.

I took the statement 'worth 10 points' to be in comparison to Cudicini - which I don't think is true.

Morrocan born i think but French attacking midifelder.
They signed him in the january transfer market of last year. We were in for him as well but suggested that he spent some time in the reserves whereas Tottenham let him go straight into the first team.

He made 2 Sub appearances for us - that's all.
He spent almost all the other time in the reserves.

I know you rate Routledge very highly, but the jury's still out on him due to his inconsistency. But he is a sound player technically, can cross the efficiently, has decent dribbling skills and can play on the left, which is a plus....allows us to offer Malbranque some cover...So glad we have him in our squad...
With regards to Taarabt, he is very highly rated in France, meant to be the next Zidane, little far-fetched, but the kids got huge potential..
Though he hasn't played much first team football, but the amount of playing time he had this pre-season, I think we are going to see alot of him this season and I can't wait...
