well at least last night wasnt a defeat and hopefully we start to pick up form now, it wasnt a great perferomance but a lot better than what we have seen since the southampton game, i'm hoping now to see a settles back 4 (coleman, jags, stones, baines) and if coleman isn't in for the fight then let him go and play browning there, osman can't return quick enough for me, I personally think we are a lot better with him in the team and mcarthy is a big miss too but no point rushing him back if he is not 100% or he will break down again. lukaku showed what potential he has last night with some good hold up play, strength, dribbling, pace and it was probably his best performance of the season, let's all stick together blues.

I agree Rob. Seamus has looked decidedly dodgy of late. If this is down to supposed interest from the Mancs which has turned his head, then bring in Browning who has already shown the potential to be more than an adequate replacement.


I think Seamus is suffering from not having a recognised wideman in front of him with Mirralas being preferred on the left we need to get back to having two wingers or one and osman

I agree with Quinny here, I think it is a bit unfair to single out one player when the entire team has been under performing for the majority of the season. Both our full backs have not been given the freedom they enjoyed last season by opposing teams this year, which has impacted on them being able to get to the by line. Couple that with playing others in RM who don't usually play in that position and I think that is the answer as to why. Let's hope every one of them starts to perform as from now.


Rob2306, at last someone agrees with me about Osman. Did you see my posts earlier about how many games we have won or lost without him? We have only won 1 game when he has not played yet won 6 with him playing. And only lost 1 when he has played. I firmly believe players like Coleman can only make their overlapping runs when they have a good link player. We are suffering because lack of Osman and Pienaar.

Degsy, what you've posted about Osman I cannot disagree with mate. Stats don't lie. But I'm more concerned that we are pinning our recovery from this slump on him.

If that stat wasn't around then most wouldn't be all that bothered that he's out injured in the first place.

I'd like to see some fresh faces brought in, maybe an experienced keeper ala Nigel Martin who saved us a few years back when he came in in the January window. And a quick passing midfielder ala Arteta who also came in during the January window.


I agree degs, plus he's a true blue, shows passion when others lack it.

It is all to do with the change of tactics. Having wingers who want to run at full backs rather than play one twos with their full backs getting them overlapping. McGeady just does not do it. likewise, when we play Barkley, Eto or Naismith in that position, then there are no overlapping runs from the full back. It's the same on the left with no Pienaar. A different style of play. Perhaps we will see some improvements once RM has sorted it?
