So Arsenal are going to need a win as I don't see Sunderland getting anything at Spuds. The 6 outfield subs on the Sunderland bench have played 5 minutes of premier league football between them.
Heard Ashley has promised 1 million to backroom staff if Newcastle win today. Isn't he a Spurs fan ? Interesting angle there.
Would really like a win today, just to push us more comfortably into the mid table spots. All types of speculation Jol will leave so hopefully if we finish closer to 11th than 17th more money will open up for him.
Yeah I know. But we need to make some significant signings or we're relegation candidates next term IMO. Plus if Jol has a fit and leaves because of lack of funds then that's the type of setback that nails our coffin.
01 Schwarzer 03 Riise 04 Senderos 05 Hangeland 27 Riether 12 Frimpong 16 Duff 31 Kacaniklic 33 Enoh 09 Berbatov 11 Ruiz Substitutes 38 Etheridge 18 Hughes 14 Karagounis 21 Frei 28 Emanuelson 10 Petric 20 Rodallega That's the side today. Schwarzer is out of contract in the summer isn't he? Could potentially get another year out of him but it'd probably be wise to be looking for someone to bring in. Senderos and Hangeland are ok but you wouldn't say no to another center back. Do you have an option to buy on Riether? He's ok. If not you need to find a right back then. Riise - bleugh. Not a priority I wouldn't say. Going forward I always think you should do so much better than you do. I rate Ruiz, Kaca and Berba. Duff is a solid player. It's just the central midfield is always so limited. Sidwell basically epitomises your limitations. Mo Diarra being injured hasn't helped. He could've done a real job for you. That's where you need to make a signing IMO. Need someone better than Rodallega as your second choice striker too. Ugh. Volkan Demriel, Kolo Toure, Matthieu Flamini and Saviola are all on free transfers this summer as it stands. Would be four very good signings for you IMO.
