Seconded

Nah, seen him play in a champions league match before, poor mans Jonas tbh. Would struggle on a cold October night away at Stoke tbh. Unknown name. Avoid. Buy a Sony.

Sooo..... Jose's pretty good at left back eh? Can't help thinking he's a bit slow and not great going forwards though. A bit of a Steve Finnan. Can we discuss the merits of this thought for a few pages?

Barton

Here comes Kuqi. Come on!

Fuck off Perch

Ranger would have either come short or gone long there

ffs best

Tiote's first touch is just immense. Absolutely bulleted at him by McLoven there, and he just takes it then plays it as if it's the easiest thing in the world.

Colo is by far our best striking option

Surprised to see Blackburn third in the table tbh.

He was awesome on PES5. Not really seen much of him the last couple of years. This kind of player never seems to do well for us, but maybe that will change?

Rofl at the posts in this tread today

The dutch commentators on the stream I was watching today spent 5 minutes talking about Aliadiere. It's got a certain inevitability about it. He is a truly terrible player though.

Seriously, what the fuck just happened? Imagine if Best's perfectly good goal had been allowed.

Just come up on 5live. Failed bid confirmed

Kluivert wasn't really our fault though. His downfall can be blamed on laziness and Nando's chicken.

Sounds like a challenge

I have always thought this. IIRC we tried to sign him but he refused to stay as we were going to keep playing him left back. He's always been a class apart IMO. It's also a shame we lost Hamann, but again it wasn't really our choice. The obvious answers are Beardsley, Shearer and Carrick in their youth days.

I don't understand the Ranger hating. It's much easier to see the ball he should have played in slow motion. The way he had his body shaped, I'm not at all surprised he didn't see the options. Williamson, Simpson and the midfield absence are much more to blame for the goal.

Williamson did very poorly to get turned there.

Fuck's sake. Never has inevitable been more appropriate.

Just needed to lift that a few inches ffs
