And some on here went on to idolise him. No different. Agree. However, I didn't see many who at the time supported him. Time heals all wounds and that, but to come out with the kind of support Suarez is getting is downright disgusting. Hmmm. I think the Andy Carroll example is more apt. A lot of people on here were all too happy to vilify Steven Taylor at the time of the Carroll v. Taylor fight. Fans are willing to forgive a lot of off field behavior if they player is performing. Carroll was scoring goals and Taylor was (generally) considered shit.

Like a Manchester United "injury crisis"

Joey Barton Also, Enrique, Carroll, Dempsey

:lol: Sorry oldtype, had to have a little laugh there

Absolute rubbish.

Would be good logic if Raylor wasn't prone to be terrible. The quicker he's out, the better. If Coloccini is out next game, it should be; Santon - Kadar - Perch - Simpson. Ryan Taylor awfulness has really come out in recent games against top clubs like Man City, Man United, and Chelsea. Tottenham also tried to exploit this weakness, but Gareth Bale didn't produce. I'm not sure that our next few opponents have the talent to expose Taylor in quite the same way as he's been exposed over the past month.

I like this.

Who is consistently better? Well, Cabaye for starters. Ben Arfa certainly since he's started. What has he done going forward? He's been terrific defensively.

Sorry if I'm later here, but I can't believe this. Supposedly weaker side? She's been drinking that RTG kool-aid I think.

That's ridiculous. Can't believe they're that down. What a lack of enthusiasm. And is that the Chelsea forum? I mean, three (short) pages? Surely, there must be somewhere else where Chelsea fans are chatting.

Don't think we'll be going 4-4-2. I think it'll be Ba up front on his own, even at home. He looked pretty isolated away at Man United. I'd figure Ben Arfa again playing in the hole and Guthrie replacing Jonas if Tiote is available. Otherwise, Sammy starts?

FTM?

yeah Napoli!!!

Chelsea really have a tough week. Surely, they'll give priority to the Liverpool and Valencia matches. Any thoughts about their lineup against us? Might we see Torres or Anelka? Alex? More to point RE: Simpson and Taylor, might they rest Malouda or Mata?

But they have such a great squad on paper. Should be pushing for Europe.

Yeah, but then spoils it by saying that he (previously) didn't believe that Colo had the ability to play consistently at a high level. Like so many pundits, it's like he (and others) watched Colo a few times in his first season for us and dismissed him and are only waking up now. If I read or hear any one talk about Colo has shown drastic improvement this season I think I'll scream.

You can read peoples minds? Freaky. It's only people with Asperger syndrome who cannot. Rooney's intent was written on his face.

Seemed a yellow to me seeing it on replay. What was Cabaye's card for anyway? Was mentioned earlier, but I don't think I saw it. Just him fuming at being carded.

Wasn't there a Virgin Money rumor? Where did I read that? Nothing on here.

just read his post. Gotta be. Still talking about Bent?

Villa?

wigan!!!!!!

That's not his current house. He just moved into a new house in Jesmond 6 weeks ago. Why were his cars parked outside the Lindisfarne Close gaff a couple of weeks back? He just moved into Lindisfarne Close 6 weeks or so ago. He lives next door to my mate. As discussed earlier in the thread, Tiote came round to watch the match with us y'day, he was also getting his new satellite system fitted y'day afternoon. Moved into two houses in the same week? What a f***ing legend. I fail to understand how you personally, can rate him when he was signed by the regime you despise. You're not all that clever then.

If there was a time to throw him in then surely it was today when we were down by three. He's played, what 15 minutes for us? Puzzling (and frustrating) that Jonas and Taylor can be so poor and he remains on the bench.
