Without Samba

[James1979]

We have nothing in midfield. No drive, no protection for back 4. We're so reliant on a young player who's played < 10 games in the england.

Totally agree without Diakite we have no midfield think Barton needs him in there to play well although thought Barton did ok considering the other two clowns in there? We should be positive next week midfield of Taarabt Barton Diakite Traore

I'd still keep mackie in the team to be honest. Though I can't really think about week-end until Spurs have done the business against bolton!!

Mackie created nothing today. When he plays wide right he very rarely creates anything.

But who do we play on the right? I don't want SWP anywhere near the team. Adel seems to be suited to the left so he can cut inside. Traore on left and adel on right maybe way to go though....

At least we'll have Faurlin next season whichever league we're in!

Will he be the same player though? Cruciates a horrible injury and many a player have returned from it not half as good as they were previous. Worrying to say the least.

Always been without Samba get over it.

We have a player called Diakite though.

[Yousef]

We were always going to lose, but at least with Diakite the score could have been more respectable.

Dont count on it? if he prove his fitness pre season could leave before end of August.

I think it's more about the players that didn't turn up, but were in red & white quarters yesterday, than one of the players that didn't play.

Looked out of his depth. I hate Ashley Cole but he had Mackie worked out from minute 1. Closed him down quickly everytime Mackie got near it as he knew he offered little and was never going to go past him.

So pleased we dropped the unlucky Mango kit for this game :yush:
