When MON was in charge, technically all the midfielders were also rightbacks!

and the rightback was a left back

And rightbacks weren't that important anyway.

We had right backs when Martin was here?

As were most centre halfs

Hutton was just so horrendous. I lost count of the amount of times he somehow escaped getting well warranted red cards, that miraculously went unpunished. That he only got one red card all season is pure luck. I would actual be quite kind in saying that he should have got at least 3-4. Some of the tackles he got away with or only got a yellow for were disgusting.

Warnock was guilty of the same. He dived in at times where I was just waiting for the red card to come out.
here is a trivial idea that maybe the manager who actually has a reputation for being a coach as well as man manager may be able to do something with these players. Hutton looked a damn good player at rangers and perhaps Lambert may be able to get something else out of him. just an idea like??

Hope he can teach Given and Dunne how to defend corners too, because clearly they struggle with it for club and country!

Hopefully he can shift both Given and Dunne on and replace them with better players.

Why aren't we going after Foster?  He is surely better than Given?  Are we expecting Ruddy?  In fact we need two keepers now Guzan has gone.

Steve Bull and Carlton Palmer both spotted at Villa Park. Les Ferdinand's helicopter seen landing at Bodymoor Heath and Juninho has been looking around houses in Sutton Coldfield.

I would offer Guzan a one year deal, haven't heard of anyone being interested in him so would think he would take it. If QPR offered us what we paid for Given I would sell and get Foster.   Also heard Collins and Hutton have been transfer listed?

Every Rangers fans I have ever spoken to has said that they are still amazed that Rangers got £8m for Hutton.

Cuellar looked amazing at Rangers and average at Villa. SPL is no yardstick...

Is it possible to see these so called transfer lists?  I always hopped it would be an excel sheet with list of players and their stats which you can filter like in football manager.
