We've also discussed that topic aswell... :roll:

Even though I agree with you I don't think he is in Malky's plans, you cannot make that assumption based on a Squad Number.

droppy usually you dont see a number 30 odd playing much UNLESS he has picked the number himself. or you got billions to spend on players thats why i thought that.
plus i havent really been clicking on the McPhail stuff recently for obvious reasons. it was something that was playing on my mind :ayatollah:

I rate mcphail but MM has kiss, cowie and Gunarrson brought in and witts has also been playing central, so we have options.

I think I'd prefer two more wide players.

yea we need a player out on the right thats for sure. i still think we need a striker. because earnie aint going to bang in the goals like he used too. we are praying that miller can do it :|

You mean like: -

Craig Bellamy: 39 (last season)
Tom Heaton: 22
Gunnarson: 17
Mason: 20
Ibby Farah: 32

All of the above probably will be in Malky's plan's this year (with the exception of Bellamy so far).


Just because a person hasn't got a squad number in 1-16 does not mean they will not be in the "plans".

However in saying that, I do agree with you about the McPhail situation.

like i said unless they picked the number. bellamy picked 39. heaton is number 2 keeper. gunnarrson not sure why hes 17 but that still not in the 30's. mason is back up. ibby farah will play about 5 games. honestly though thats usually how it goes. between 1-18 usually 1st team after that your back up :ayatollah:
