Kanj

Read a handful of books about the man, I can't begin to tell you how much MORE I love and respect him. He's what football was and he should either a) still be part of this club or b) at every single match watching us from the ownership seats seeing us battle for the top places in this league. Hurts it's neither and even more so that we actually had him here again and he was daring us all to believe and dream for a short bit.

A Keegan talk in video that's been posted on here about 5,000,000x

Support the team not the regime, Yank. Go back to Canada, marra

What sick fucks who live in the city would actually want to show up now? We're not going to magically win the league or something or make Europe ffs. The club nor the players are actually going out there matching the support we've given them throughout this depressing year (and years under Ashley). Don't fucking show up, stop spending money on the club, make Ashley sit in that ground with nobody there in an empty ground that has Sports Direct written all over it. Fuck sake, people are so fucking naive, stubborn and stupid. It's really that simple. The man who only looks at money in this...HEY, STOP GIVING HIM MONEY.

There's this natural quality to him that's so refreshing to see - the way he turns with the ball, the way he dummies defenders, the way he (and other class players around the world) let the ball do the work for them and they change their body position/weight/drop a shoulder and feign and let that create separation from the defender, etc. Also he's more than fine with his back to goal in certain situations; he's not going to be holding off the likes of Kompany ffs but you've got to play the ball to him and give him an opportunity to do something with it.

Also, that entire Shearer press conference + go on and read a few of the Keegan books - you'll not once think of ever speaking badly about Keegan (not that anyone actually does that)

Bobby knew it well - had Bellamy stayed fit, we win the title that season. Sir Alex even admitted to that.

Don't think he's heartless at all, he's always running around the place trying to create something. I'd be interested to see him at a better team if he would pass more because I think that he believes that he has to do it all by himself here and doesn't trust the rest of the team Doesn't even have the heart to have one of his english speaking mates check his tweets for fucking sake, there's no heart in him at all.

He's a daft heartless headless chicken of a footballer who only uses his pace and nothing else. Moreover, he can't fucking google translate his tweets. Mercenary, idiotic footballing cunt.

daft cunt can't even google translate right

ffs he's looked better at CB than the entire lot this season.

Dekka probably made him "stretch" and hurt him on purpose.

He's pretty damn terrible, and his mentality in general on the pitch is outrageously poor. Man can't even judge bounces of balls right for headers and shit

He absolutely does care - it's pretty easy to see his mentality / reactions. Maybe he doesn't care about the club - but he cares about winning and losing and that's about all you can ask for with this shambles club.

He's f***ing excellent, how we got him ahead of other clubs after he played a good few games for Holland too is beyond me, what was he thinking? No idea - probably mates with Krul pre not giving a fuck anymore.

He was far more "all-action" today - probably more of how he played in Greece. He sat when he was on that brilliant run of form earlier - wish he would have buried a goal though.

Janmaat is fucking class, he's got a heart of a lion and I feel for him dealing with this shit man. Moment in first half he played it to Colback and yelled for it back, had me in stitches.

Soon as he got his yellow, I assumed he'd get booked again and sent off and I was proven right. He's worked his fucking ass off tonight, nobody cares in this club and it's pretty god damn clear it's infected the entire club. It only changes when a new man/staff take over capable of blocking out the Ashley factor or when Ashley no longer is part of this club. Anyway, call him lazy or stupid or unintelligent, he's basically been part of this club since we've been fucking shit bar a 1/2 season run here and there.

Nike Juve is better, but that's a fantastic kit.

Excellent post tmonkey. Just wait for his "magic" players to get sold or hurt, he'll be fucked. Then when he falls out with these said magic players, he's fucked again.

I'd say Cabaye too. Seems a thoughtful and intelligent French player. Commands respect as well. We've basically has no leader since he's left, even during his sit out period too he was clearly the main man behind the scenes.

They're all cunts

For some reason I always felt Youri Djorkaeff and Jari Litmanen would be brilliant managers.

You're perfect as a DM I'd say. Get a triangle of LFEE and yourself, I'll sit in front, nice balance. Couple of pacey wingers and someone who can finish. I'll play right wing. Just get someone to do a Tino v Barca and I'll whip the crosses in.
