Suppose for the money you could argue he’s been poor overall. In actual matches i rarely think he plays badly. Just average most of the time. He’s a great footballer but just offers very little threat for a left sided midfielder in a top side.

Or any other. When are Russia being let back in?

He is what he is as a player.Find someone else who can score at the rate he does and they’ll be on similar wages

They were well on top before he went off. Plus he’d have likely tired as the game went on

He’s been brilliant

Add Garcia to that. Pep kept playing him because he was good at passing out from the back(even in a champions league quarter final). When it was pretty obvious he’d never make a top centre half as long as he had a hole in his arse. Pep is great as we all know but people use him for an argument...

Well,the main difference was Alba could fly past people on the overlap due to his lightning pace. Not sure at what age you’re hoping to see that happen with Rico

He’s nothing special and never will be. Done alright recently and has been playing just because of injuries

Agreed. I wasn’t angry in the slightest watching it. I was more pleasantly surprised with how well we played the first 35 minutes. Was a bit of me thinking what are Brighton doing though? Once they went back to their front foot style we had no answer. Loads of injuries but more importantly for...

Would rather have Zabba in his prime personally as he was a miles better actual footballer, link play with the likes of Siva etc. Maybe my judgement is slightly clouded though because i liked Zabba and he didn’t come across as a fucking idiot. Credit where it’s due though he’s been a fantastic...

Yeah the last 3 games have all been value backing against us. I kicked myself for not backing Spurs a couple of weeks before the game when their price was bigger. Bournemouth at evens with a plus one asian handicap was also very good value at evens. Also if we’re behind going into the last 15/20...

Don’t know what the answer is but the group stages had been fucking wank for years. At least you play some varied teams in this and a couple of decent ones. Obviously it’s many a money grab with the extra games. Football is fucked though anyway as we all know. Our club prove it regularly by...

He makes some decent points though. People who don’t watch us regularly are shocked at these latest results. Whereas anyone watching us every week could see this coming. Where i do disagree though is that there is nothing that can be done to change it. I think the first thing that needs...

Yeah, not as if they even make us more solid as they all look like they’re running through treacle. All out attack looks the only solution at the moment

I’m just assuming it was down to players fitness. No way Pep’s watching that without doing the obvious sub he made so late without fitness being a factor.Obviously it’s a shame it wasn’t earlier as we’d have probably got something out of it

Yeah, you’re right about him not really getting flying until about this time last season. He had that Newcastle performance early on but then didn’t play in the middle much more for a while. His problem could be if he doesn’t get going soon and as we all hope KDB gets back he struggles to get...

Prime Kompany around 2012 before all the injuries was as good as it gets. The fact he could comeback so many times after not playing for weeks and be our best defender in title run ins shows how great he was. Love Stones he’s brilliant but Vinnie was our greatest centre back ever

Can’t see that happening as the type of player we’d want won’t be available in January. We’ll just have to hope KDB gets back in what will probably be his swan song and then sign a long term replacement in the summer. Gundo and Foden could help if they improve and Bobb will be like a new...
