I'm being unable to quote due to being in the Third World country Brazil with slow internet. However, yes it depends where Ganso goes, but this kid just has this thing about him which is special. His ball control reminds a lot of players such as Zidane, the able he protects it and his vision and intelligence on the pitch is incredible. If i were him I'd chose Italy to develop as this offensive playmaker.

CRonaldo won the Champions League because Terry is a shit penalty taker to be honest. And Nobody, how come winning the World Cup doesn't matter? I mean he was the top goal scorer for the best national team in the World? CRonaldo is a great player no doubt, but to compare him with the original Ronaldo is a bit heavy, he hasn't done half of what Ronaldo has done. Ronaldo was twice the Worlds best player at the age of 21, and was heavily injured but still came back after two years and won it again.

That's the thing though VI, Messi will out-trophy him every single time, and in three season you'll have a player named Ganso who probably will be there winning battling it out and probably winning it in 2014 if Brazil wins the World Cup. I have my doubts Ronaldo will win it 3 times and if he does, than you can also remember that Ronaldo missed two whole year right after he peaked as a footballer which probably would've brought him at least one trophy. The real Ronaldo was also a big match winner, something CRonaldo isn't. Ronaldo scoring three past Man Utd in that Champions League tie for Real is just classic.

You guys are fucking high. He'll never win the World Cup twice, play twice in the World Cup final and he won't be chosen the worlds best player 3 times. He will never be regarded as better than the real Ronaldo by people who knows football.

Alright, It sucked to lose, but at least this wasn't a wake up call for how bad we ARE. The players just didn't want to put a performance in. I was ridiculed by the starting 11 not playing hungry youngsters and couple of the veterans. Risking Tiote was stupid but in the end he had no other choice, we were playing so bad in the middle of the park and Pardew probably thought we still had a chance. The change should've come when they scored their first goal though. Abysmal performance, but I feel we wouldn't win this cup anyways and our squad is to thin to really have a go for it. Now lets look forward to the Shitland match.

Happy to see Best playing. Who knows maybe he scores another 3 and has 6 goals in two matches. Would be huge for the derby and his confidence!

People are really living in a dreamworld suggesting a £1 million deal for Seb Larsson would be bad. I'd take him for even £2 million. In the end we need players who can come of the bench and we also need danger from set pieces which we havn't had since Nobby and Laurent Robert. I mean in the end we can score goals from set pieces by crossing the ball, but we are no danger on direct free-kicks. He is also a hardworker and good passer of the ball. Exactly what we need.

Luis Enrique ? Or do you mean the American player he elbowed at the World Cup during the last sixteen? Anyways, he's the best looking manager too

5th thread about the same thing but doesnt hurt. Merry Christmas to you and rest on here too.

Ozil has been very good, its hard to get a mention in a team which has a player who gets all the media coverage. But has without a doubt been one of their top performer and for his first year he has really settled in well.

Ozil is the better player guys. Come on! How can you say Afellay is terrific. He has never had any success in a better league and in Holland even Afonso Alves was dominating! Ozil has been great for Real this season I find it difficult to see Afellay getting games directly with the way Pedro - Villa - Messi are playing. Will be a good option off the bench no doubt, but he has a lot to prove.

I'm sorry but the appointment of Leonardo will make Inter the strongest team in the league. Best manager last season behind Ranieri and Mourinho. First year of managing. Now its his second year, he has experience, made Milan a strong team last season even though there was not one good player fit and he likes to play an attacking minded football. Still can't see them running infront of Milan due to the big gap. But with luck and if he's given time he will revive players like Maicon and Milito and he will also give Coutinho more playing time. Was very disappointed to see him leave last season from Milan and disappointed that he has gone to Inter now. But this will turn this Serie A a little more feisty.

make up sex is great...thats assuming we get a result as you'll not be bothered if we get beat, right ? Thank you sir. Great advice.

Fuck me! Will have to compromise with girl who after over 20 hours of flight from Sweden to Brazil probably won't be happy when I say i cant go to the beach because i want to watch the game. Going to get my head cut off. Anyways I hope Smith plays last 20 and breaks de Jongs leg. Cheers!

I'd keep Campbell. rest can leave.

I agree. I mean all goalies need experience to develop. Krul won't be at his peak until he's at least 27 or 28. But many seasons in the Premiership will do him wonders. He has shown he's a very good shot stopper, I see his main problem being the balls in the air and commanding his back four, but that comes with experience. I haven't watched Forster to say anything, but I agree with every word of what you said. I think Harper needs to leave, I don't know his wages or anything but think they're around the £25k mark, which is a lot for a goalie who not near as good as Krul or Forster like you seem to think.

That's actually not a dumb idea at all. Having Forster, Krul and Söderberg fighting it out for the three spots would be very nice and valuable for all three.

Until Krul has two shit games in a row its pointless to replace him. In the end I think they're equally good right now to that extent that Krul lacks experience. He's young but if we want to develop a top goalie he needs to play and gain experience. But of course if he does have two or three shit games in a row it might be debatable to put Harper back in and see what he can do. But Krul has done very well so far, nothing spectacular but also nothing bad.

10 points. Bent as only player as captain.

It's postponed.

He's been shit till recently. So no thank you. I'd rather try to sign Seb Larsson and sing Ben Arfa on a permanent basis.

I'd also say Tiote v Arsenal. Hadn't Carroll scored it would've been 0-0. He ate up Arsenals midfield alone.

Left wing and usually tries to cross them when he's running and he has no balance at all so he fails.
