You need 2 players for every position, and Bentley and SWP can play in the same team.

When Tevez signed we wondered where SWP would play, and he's ended up playing in the same team.

With Elano going we are a little short of cover on the right of midfield, or central midfield if Ireland or SWP were to get injured.

that's right. two players for every position. sell petrov and we have just one for the left wing berth (bentley, swp, bellamy, ireland, all less than ideal IMO). I can't see any left-footed players hughes would fancy in this league, and the deadline is all but gone for european deals.
Who played on the left at Portsmouth when Robbie didn't play?

Even when Robbie does not play, Petrov can't get in the team so why would be a loss to sell him? You could argue he should be in the team, but I'd disagree. Some people say that Robbie doesn't deliver away from home, but that's nothing compared to Petrov who never tackles, and lacks the ability to beat his full back unless he's slow.

As controversial as Elano, and a discussion that will never be resolved
 
Re: I have just been told.............

Petrov is 10 times the player Bentley ever will be.

Massively overated, has gone down hill in a big way since going to Spuds.

Unfortunately its clear Hughes wont play Petrov again after his outburst; we end up with "What he knows" and an ass rape of a deal in return.

Will be really pissed off if this ends up hapening I cant take any positives from it, very RSC like deal much worse in fact if thats possible.

I cant understand why hughes would ruin such a good start to the season with such a shit deal.
 
Re: I have just been told.............

I believe this deal could be done,but I dont believe for one second on those terms.


and this goes against the "no more deals after lescott" rubbish....sorry we signed sylvinho then.

What no one seems to have realised yet is that this is the end for SWP.

Might explain why he couldn't crack a smile in the last game.
hope this not true would be gutted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wouldn't worry too much fella, can't see SWP going anywhere
 
Re: I have just been told.............

i agree 10m + petrov is over the top! hey id be happy with the deal, i think bentley would be a good player for us! and alot more useful than petrov would be this season!!

think about it! who will be the most productive player for us?!

bellamy at left wing is a bodge-job. it made sense to use his grit for that game, but if robbie is out for a home game? different story.

he's nowhere near as controversial as elano IMO. he wants to play, he's got the hump. not great, but what he hasn't done is stir up shit against hughes through the media. that's obviously over the line.
 
Re: I have just been told.............

Exactly he had one decent season and has become a big time after his move to spurs. To be avoided like the plague. We have just finished getting rid of a load of shit freeloaders why sign another one ?

Santa Cruz hasn't played yet so what's the point of comparing this "deal" to that? You haven't even seen him play for us yet, and you must admit that the combination of Bentley and Santa Cruz was devastating for Blackburn?

Unlike Petrov, Bentley hasn't had a whole series of injuries that have taken their toll on his ability to beat a man. Are you saying that in one season, Bentley has suddenly lost the ability to cross a ball?

he has had a bad season at Spurs, but you've got to look at why that is, and it's got more to do with the managerial changes, and the way Spurs play than it has to do with what has happened to Bentley the footballer. possibly he' lost a little focus in London, but I don't really know about that. if that's the case I think he could get that back. Anyway looks unlikely now so you don't need to worry. If Petrov stays at City, I'll cheer him on in a City shirt, and hope he proves me wrong

Given what we have seen of Hughes can you really see him standing for any shit? I'm not thrilled by the prospect either, but hughes knows a lot more about the player than any one on here.

I'm always worried about people who have "accidents" and kill other people when they're sober.

1.5 times over the limit wasn't he? 120mg? Is that about three pints of piss-beer?

Of course not, under Hughes at Blackburn he got into the England squad! maybe just maybe the manager knows him better than us?

And how the hell does getting pulled for drink driving equate to getting nicked all the time?

Have you seen Petrov play under Sven? We can argue about the past all day, but if hes not playing for Spurs why should he play for us?
