Do we have the best midfield now during our time in the PL , the stats seem to say so , indeed do we have the toughest , most hardworking midfield in the league?
This are the stats to prove it ( so far )
Player / tackles / succes rate
Thomas Wigan 62 84%
Lucas Liverpool 49 69%
Diamé Wigan 44 70%
Cana Sunderland 41 73%
Palacios Tottenham 41 71%
Excellent. If only he’d play a left-footer on the left (N’Zogbia) and a right-footer on the right (Sinclair), and two up front, we might win some games.
I’m sure he played nzog on the left at Pompey……..
some folk eh.
and You could add a decent keeper to that.
apart form that, the rest is ok. centre backs, hugo up front, right back,
we deperately need a wide right player…….oh and bennie mcarthy please.
as for winning games, we have won more than everton at the moment, that will do for me, obviously you are hard to please

Thank you, someone that agrees with me.
Personally I think the best midfield, at the time was
Valencia Scharner Landzaat McCulloch
We nearly went down that season because this midfield rarely played together. Or not enough anyway. We drafted in Skoko, Johansson or Haestad (remember him?) all 3 were dreadful. Kilbane was decent though. So was Cotterill at times, I was a bit disappointed when we sold him. He was decent cover on the right. He’s doing well at Sheff Utd nowadays.
To put it nicely. Remember Chelsea away that year, he played a perfect through ball. Unfortunately it was too Arjen Robben who was gifted a goal and Chelsea won 4-0.
Yes he was decent that game. My personal highlight of his was him scoring at the reebok!! Never really turned it on though did he? Personally I thought he was poor, not strong or quick enough for the Prem. Technically sound though.
He might of fitted into Bobbys system and also Landsat as well
Landzaat definitely would. I think that Johannson was a bit like Gomez is today, though I think Gomez has the potential to be better, but also the potential to be slower :)

I agree, we do but unfortunately they went missing last Saturday which was the main reason we lost. Because the midfield was so ineffective we didn’t create anythnig and the defence was constantly under pressure.
I hope the real Hendry and Momo turn up on Sunday, we might stand a chance then.
