Ronaldo

We don't seem to be able to get rid of players without loaning them. Shows just how bad our recruitment policy has actually been. Tbf he came in under Rafa and was the only bad signing out of 11. So that's a decent average. Lazaar was an awful signing too, to be fair. Anyway hopefully now everyone on the recruitment side has the same focus and agenda, and no more utterly perplexing signings of untested players.

Thank God. Long overdue.

Lejeune doesn't look like a pipe cleaner, to be fair.

He's going to be a really, really good player but at this moment in time he isn't better than Gayle and we'd only have him for one season anyway. No great loss.

Strange player to compare him with, like.

His name sounds like that of a Bond bad guy. like an evil Swiss entrepreneur I was thinking more a cynically handsome megalomaniac with a goatee and a castle surrounded by a pine forest in the South of France. He cordially invites Bond for wine then tries to cut his jacobs off.

His name sounds like that of a Bond bad guy.

I think that's the best name I've ever heard.

Genuinely not sure what there is to like about him. Attitude. Never hides from criticism and is refreshingly blunt and honest in interviews. Ability. Along with De Gea he's been the best shot stopper in the Premier League for the last 4-5 years. Yes he's having a dip last 12 month but nothing a bit of confidence wouldn't sort. Experience. Been there done it. Joe Hart the best shot stopper in the PL? What? I'm convinced that entire post describes someone else.

Steady on.

Brilliant referee, Elleray. No one fucked with him.

I think he's better than Elliot and Darlow. We should still be aiming higher.

We can surely do much better than Willy fucking Cabellero, man.

If only.

Carr probably vetoed it. Bout time someone pulled his plug.

We just need to bite the bullet and spend money on a proven entity. Darlow was bought from the Championship, Elliot League One, Sels from Belgium, Krul and Woodman from the youth setup. It's a hit and hope mentality and it really doesn't work at top level.

Giroud's a very good striker. I don't think he's Rafa's type, though.

Three games last season doesn't indicate that he sees Elliot as our best. I think he knows we need an improvement in that position.

Mulholland Drive makes more sense than Neesy.

South American football, man. :lol:

What's the alternative?

Surely he can find a better club than that. Fulham would've been a nailed-on thing had they gone up. Palace or Watford perhaps?

The quintessential Neesy post here.

Don't really think that was the crux of the Twitter rage against RR mind. Fair enough. I've zero knowledge of the what went on re. Twitter. To call them bottlers is obviously daft when you look at how good they were in the latter half of the season, though.
