I believe several journalists, pundits and dubiously titled 'experts' have used a similar sentiment to analyse his contributions in recent times. Shame about ol' Luka. Perhaps an unpopular opinion but I thought he was an astute signing for us at the time and proved to be a very valuable member of our team. The past few seasons however have seen a sharp and premature (for a CDM) decline and he now looks very much a Big Sam signing, sorely out of place in a revamped, new look, Vieira, youth driven, promising squad. I'd be sincerely shocked to see him line up for us at any point next season. Here's hoping he gets a move to see out his career with some retention of dignity and fonder memories of him are held as opposed to the more recent ones. I concur with these sentiments.

Luka was great when he first signed and the following season, but he seems to have been on a downward trajectory since. He's had well publicised family problems and his head just doesn't seem in the game, plus at times he has actually looked quite unwell. He makes at least one big mistake in every appearance these days and seems well off the pace. He does seem like a good character, but I think his time here is done.

In his first 2 seasons he scored a total of 22 goals for us, mainly penalties and free kicks.

Probably,a 2-0 defeat as we continue to lick our wounds after semis defeat.

Feel compelled to google now. Agree with post they mirror my thoughts asides from that which I am sorely ignorant.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

Can’t see us getting anything out of this as they are on a roll. So were Manchester City when we beat them 2-1 to us

I think Sandcastle will expect us to arrive with a hangover from Sunday but we will surprise them in a positive way & will leave on the journey home with the 3 points.

Defeat, I'm afraid. I don't think we'll fancy this, and the last two performances give me no reason for confidence. 2 or 3 - nil.

I prefer not to make predictions, but one thing that was noticeable over the past couple of seasons is that when we reached a reasonable level of safety the players switched off / stopped playing, call it what you will. It is true that the empty stadiums didn't provide the reminder to the players that there were still points to play for.

We were a little onfortunate not to have scored at least one at Wemberley so I am going for a 1-2 in our favour.
Enjoying getting up later and not having someone who knows better than me (apart from the missus of course). |

Seems like a massive letdown for us after Sunday, and Newcastle seem to win every match these days. If they're smart, they will pressure us early, and the match could be over in the first half. The only positive is Gallagher, Clyne, and Mateta should be rested. The scary thing is we are 3 points out of 9th, but only 5 points out of 16th. We can't really afford to have a drop in form, and we need to continue to get some points over the next month. Anything below 12th would be a big disappointment this season, and we're currently in 13th.
