Impressed with players who played against us

[Greg]

If we get in Debuchy, Douglas and another striker I honestly think we will have another right go at getting in the top 4. Not saying we will as it is very hard to do but we will give it a go.This team really excites me. We were very poor by our standards on Saturday, a vital 3 points really but that is what happens when you have genuine quality at the top end of the field.

When?!

Banging grannies, trouble on the pitch, arguements with his manager. Sounds tenuous, but no more than Ben Arfa

Spurs 1 -1 WBA

Lukaku.. He's really a beast isn't he. What does he feed on?
fortune was tricky and w had to track him with two players and that tired us out a bit
morrison cones up with the goods for them consistently. He is a year younger than Lennon but better goal to games ratio.

Always liked Morrison, busy and with good touch.

 

[nayimfromthehalfwayline]

Morrison is a very good player, hugely under rated IMO. Lukaku looked fantastic, we couldnt handle him at all.

Ive been impressed by Long every time Ive seen him and thought McAuley stood out as well.

we should be looking at players like this to plug some obvious gaps

 

[Park Lane James]

Lukaku looked leeked like an absolute beast yesterday. Relatively quick, immensely strong, good in the air, holds the ball up well, good movement and decent ball control. His inclusion meant that the momentum started to turn their way - Gallas couldn't handle him.
