But when these 'lower' teams are outspending and beating you to targets and strengthening when we're losing players/ consolidating then where does that place us?! Let's judge Moyes when he's had money to spend and not just replacing sold players.
I'd imagine there's only 1 win or so between 7th and say 4th - the real league is made up of 20 teams over 38 games each... Spurs finished 4th and were unlucky not to have finished 3rd. Well done to them - they deserve the champions league spot but I hope Chelsea nick it!
Correct and vucevic from Blackburn is - not sure if it's correct but the qu does say players... sure we've had Serbia and Montenegro players in the past (wasn't kezman?) and we've got a few Serbs but not sure about montenegro's (is that right?!) since they've become independent... good shout though marco!
You're judging the team who were looking title contenders up to around that point where Harry got linked with England on one performance in their poor patch of the season.
Spurs attacking options up to dec... Defoe, adebayor, pav, dos santos, bale, Lennon, van Der vaart, Modric, krancjaer, pienaar... have I missed anyone?! We're much better than that shite!!!
Osman's gone on from that to make over 200 apps for us - that's the point I was making. Not every player is ready at 18 or even 20 - look how important Leon has been.
I heard it was a 2yr deal. Maybe he's shown enough to make Moyes think he's a late bloomer - Osman was what 21/22 when he made his full debut vs Wolves?
Go - for what we may pay in fees I'd rather focus that on trying to get Rodellega in on a free. He's not been the best this season but he does possess class and Moyes has often got the best out of 'under performers' (okay not always strikers!)
Cabaye on Cahill incident...
http://mobile.nufc.co.uk/default.aspx?s=news-display&aid=2771256
To be fair to him he did apologise to the ballboy at half-time too.
It obviously hasn't been reported or picked up by cameras, but cabaye pushed a ball boy in the 1st half and knocked him into the advertising boards hence many of our players were very aggressive towards him especially neville and cahill. Cabaye should have been sent off on the basis g.Neville was when he kicked the ball at a fan - similar to that in a way.
Pienaar's just tweeted...
Seriously the crowd applaud Andy Carroll 4 sliding into the advertising boards wow...
To me that says what a bunch of fickle, in-bred cunts! (or maybe I'm reading too much into it!!!)
