What we dont need is Walcott playing, he will be scared stiff of them, plus he is useless and a complete waste of time, as he was for 99% of the time again saturday
Fuck me I agree with every word of your post :wink: :lol: Though I would also add that Sagna needs to get his act together as I don't think he has played at all well this season.

important to note that we'll need to be tight at the back against stoke, but as well we seem to be lacking players who have a go at the defenders, so who would you start?

i'm an attacking football lover, so i'd try eboué again.
Don't forget Cafu! :wink:
i would never, mate. cafu and roberto carlos are by far the best fullbacks i ever saw in action in my life. unbelieveble stuff. just to think we had both at the same time at the national team fills me with good memories :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:

Cant understand people wanting eboue in right midfield, we all know he can be a half decent right back that is well documented, equally we all know he has been crap as a right midfielder and it was in this position that he was given so much flack because of his deficiencies as a midfielder so why the fuck put him there again.

I'd rather have rosicky right midfield and if walcott is to play in midfield shift him over to the left where he can cut inside.

What it patently tells us is that we lack quality in certain areas of the park, big fucking areas imo.
