As we all know he's a nuisance to the other team, always on the look out for something to half inch, goal, penalty, free kick - booking for them, whatever. I'm a West Ham supporter and I find him annoying can only imagine how the other teams players find him ! But at the end of the day if he doesn't knick a goal or make one his physical contribution, is in my eyes pretty light. I'd like to think we have turned, or are turning a corner and have better goods to lay out on our stall. If he moves on in the January sales and stays in the First Division you know he's going to score against us !

I'd like to see him add that to his talents if it adds a few grand to the transfer.<br />I'm also with George that AC can and will make a difference in the last 15/20 but not at silly money/wk that could be better used, keeping Song for example. Also who's giving odds he won't be crocked again before May?<br />The Nolan 2fer is OK with me. BTW that was a serious question before, does he actually do anything worthwhile when he's on, or is it just his inspirational qualities or summat nowadays?Mr Smittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06804687140960716095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6696950118415942477.post-77962487764422393032014-11-11T14:01:55.195-08:002014-11-11T14:01:55.195-08:00Oops Filthy I'm giving Smitty credit for your ...Oops Filthy I'm giving Smitty credit for your the full exploitation of AC's talents.

I think AC will add a different side to our game when fully fit so I would like to see him stay, unless we can get our 16 million back!!<br />Think it was obvious that Sahko and Vallencia were on top form and just not getting through but AC did make a real difference at the end. I think he should have been brought on earlier say 15 or20 mins and I think we could have nicked it.

Does he do much? <br />A crunching tackle, a wily interception, a crucial pass? Fair dos he had the disallowed goal and the missed shot but I don't think it's enough.<br />That's a lot of gelt for a sub. Flog him in the fitness window and get what we can.<br />I'm sure with the new team he'll do better and score a few, but to be fair I think we'd score anyway and he will get credit for " finally coming into his own".

I think you're right and they will get time, Nolan's history for me, but I feel AC could have a part to play, as a sub to change things up.
