Not a chance, if you were a professional footballer you would want to test yourself at the highest level. I can tell you now I'd rather make 15-20 PL appearances a season than 40 championship ones. You train with better players, play against better players in the greatest (certainly most global)...

Possibly it is just the optimist within me..but I honestly don't think, when fully fit, there's a great deal between the two of them. Right now Keogh is a cult hero, but I think we have to look at the fact we're third bottom, and without pompey's deduction would be second bottom. A couple of...

Hang on there mate, don't think I ever said 'I don't like Keogh', I actually think he's a very good defender and also a better player overall than McPake. My point was that I think with a fully fit McPake, I don't think we lose out too much. Despite what you say, I think there have been games...

Keogh is very good for our side, but at times he flatters to deceive. Throws himself into challenges, blocks shots putting his body on the line..our John Terry, if you will. However he's in a back four that rarely keep a clean sheet, obviously it's not all down to him, but if we sold him for...

I think we're incredibly lucky to have a few of the young players coming through that we do right now, otherwise god knows where we'd be for next season. First of all we need to get rid of the deadwood, fresh start. I don't see us bouncing straight back up, hopefully two maybe three years. I...

I live in Reading now, shit club with the definition of 'fair-weather fans', but they've got money and in football is a numbers game unfortunately

Obviously feel sorry for the fans but they're pretty much cheating, deserve relegation. Apparently they paid 1 million for that hueseklep and he was on a pretty big salary as well, even after the turmoil. Plenty of clubs in the division do it though, Forest operate way beyond their means...

Admittedly you haven't criticised Norwood there, but my point was in regards to the forum as a whole, and I think by stating bigi's crosses were as good as Norwood's is very harsh on Norwood. Incidentally on another post you did have a dig at him and included some part about him thinking he was...

Nonleagueherewecome, you really don't like Norwood do you? Criticising Gael and you can't help but have a dig at Norwood. As if Bigi's passes were as good as Norwood's. Bigi put in two decent crosses, Norwood's were insightful through balls, with the perfect weight and height that led to two...

Your comments about Norwood are absolutely ridiculous. He clearly has the ability to spray 30 yard 'Hollywood passes' in his locker. Both our goals today should be heavily accredited to him. Usually the term 'Hollywood pass' is something used by sunday league players to their overly confident...

I appreciate Clingan wasn't bad today, but I don't think he does enough. He literally stands in the middle receives the ball and plays safe, average passes. Rarely plays a testing ball thats cuts the opposition open. I just think he's so average, we'll never progress with him anchoring the midfield.

Pogba off to Juve as well isn't he? or so I've heard. Poor man's scholes in my opinion, not quite got the ability, though he is similar. He lacks pace and strength, which could let him down in the PL. I imagine fergie will loan him to PL club next season and progress him accordingly

He's played out of position, it's as simple as that. Clingan, Bigi, Deegan and to a certain extent Thomas and Norwood all want to occupying that slot at the back of the diamond. But whilst it was a diamond I think Bigi did okay. Second half he was poor but he was played right midfield, he found...

he was greedy, how often are keepers beaten at that angle, should've crossed it.

I think a draw monday keeps us alive. It's a must not lose game. Barnsley look ropey, keep an eye on them

Are you joking? Played two sublime passes for both our goals and you're criticising him for trying three others which failed? I think you have to credit Clarke's defensive performance as well, the fact he got forward with two assists is surely just a bonus from a RB? I have nothing against...

completely agree, Hussey was awful, crossing was atrocious, overhit pretty much every time. Additionally misplaced several routine passes. Clarke played wonderfully, often fulfilling the job of RB and RM. Boyd was their main threat I think, but Clarke didn't let him get away from him and then...

Leicester definitely, only really experienced a short time of premier league football with cov, so i'm not bothered about villa. Leicester, then blues for me

Whatever you say physique is incredibly important unless you're a world class player. For centre midfield in the premier league you need to be a dynamic player, e.g. the gerrard mould, strong, powerful runner who's capable of going box to box. The exceptions are the top top players, the paul...

Probably get slated but... I'd like to see us bring in a couple of premier league has-beens (bare with me). Young squad, with plenty of energy and enthusiasm, I'd like to see us bring in some older heads who have been there and done it, if nothing else to act as a reminder to the young players...
