MGW out injured. ?

McAtee can't play as a number 8, we need some creativity in the front 3. I'd play McAtee and Jesus behind.... Oh, if Woods is resting for the Prem, we need to play Kalimuendo.

Time for Kali to step up for Forest.

Boy do we need another striker. If anyone gets injured the period where you play two games a week or more around Xmas is going to be a joke.

Predicitons, fellow Trickes. Who do you think we'll sign up front and will we get a surprise two forwards?

Surely we are too stacked with wingers for this system? Or is Hutchinson going to be moving to CF?

Lol... here we go again. Rinse and repeat. Living the usual start-of-season nightmare... same old, same old! I do still love Big M, though - just wish he'd calm down a bit!

I think we get me and Skegs as emergency strikers. Failing that, Jimenez at Wolves. Get him cheap and he's decent. I wanted Delap before he went to Chelski, but I think he now has a flat arse from sitting on the bench all season.

Now Thiago would be great, but are there not any other strikers about? What about the other Mexican that scored against England?

Cyclist. I've remarked before that the £70 million we spent on wingers is basically wasted because we appointed a new manager who uses a system of wing-backs. Wingers are redundant except where we might be desperately chasing a game.
Another example of lack of joined up thinking and lack of continuity at our club, mate.

Skeggs and Big Larry up front!!!

They'd be passing to each other!
No one would get a touch!!!. ???

If Skegs passed to me, Rogie, I'd get a touch on. ??

We could stick Murillo in mf and play diamond with Cuhna and Milenkovic. ?

If he passed to me, Larry, I'd pass out.

Sorry you girls, missing me. ? I wouldn't pass to most of you, because next week you'd probably be wearing the opposites shirt. ?

I'd use Bowie up front, more of a "bite yer legs" striker.

The £70 million on wingers is only wasted if they leave on free transfers. If we follow the Chelski route, as with Delap, we could sell them for north of £100 million.

Yes and no, Oakham. They are on long contracts which are deteriorating in transfer value weekly, mate. Likewise, we will be paying them big wages to sit on a bench.

Ignore him, Oakham. Him and his mate Ripley just like to slate Mr M for whatever reason they can pick at. And, Stokie, why are you worried about what they get paid to sit on the bench. It's Mr M's money that pays them, not yours. Just saying. ?

Who said I was worried, Skeggs? And which part of my post is untrue?
A bit on edge today perhaps? Like I said, relax, have a beer, calm down, dear. ????

Well, you haven't answered my question, Skegs, but, as Tom Jones sang, "It's Not Unusual." ??
So, are you saying that, because it's Mr M's money, no one is entitled to an opinion?
Might as well close the site down then, eh, pal?
Anyway, I thought you'd used all your Kleenex when OG was appointed? ????
