Ronaldo

It took about 20 minutes for him to be offside 3 times through sheer laziness. There's just no defending it, especially after 11 years of the same nonsense.

Perhaps because Best occasionally ran, and almost looked like a goal threat? Shola minces about waiting for the ball like he's Cantona, but then loses it and makes no effort whatsoever to win it back. I'm surprised the useless c*** doesn't get more abuse.

Surprised people give a shit that the lad's injured.

I think he looked slow to react on a number of occasions and pretty poor with the ball. Nowt wrong with making that observation; he shouldn't have immunity just because he's a new signing. But nobody with the exception of the idiot above has even come close to writing him off. I think he'll do pretty well for us.

What a ludicrous comment.

The same happened with Best if you recall. People like to judge instantly and the ones that do it can barely tell their arse from their elbow. Who's judging?

Coloccini. LLLO hated Colo from basically the moment we signed him. Pathetic really.

They were poor, and have been poor for a long time. Hopefully Cabaye solves the problem.

Wigan are the definition of small time.

What is?

I'd guess it's something stronger if he's hallucinating.

Gervinho anihilated Raylor in the first half, like.

Not quite.

Slow compared to what? You're both ridiculous.

Nowhere near the time to make judgements, but Ba has looked pretty dreadful each time he's worn the shirt.

Piss off, man. He lost the ball time after time and was offside needlessly on about 4 occasions.

If Best is slow, Shola's on the verge of battling rigamortis.

Sounds like you spent more time in The Strawberry than the corner. Best looked anything but slow.

In other words we'll have a LB.

Nearly got into a fight with some dickhead who shouted 'fuck off and don't come back, ya shite' when he was substituted today. Incredible. He was never going to look particularly impressive today.

Made the effort to applaud all 4 sections of the ground today. Hopefully means he's off.

Krul 7 Simpson 5 Taylor 8 Coloccini 8.5 Raylor 5 Barton 6 Cabaye 6 Tiote 7 Jonas 6 Ba 4 Shola 4.5 Obertan 6 Best 7

Less of a disgrace than his football, though. Him and Ba were very poor together, as most of us predicted.

MOTM for me.

Very solid today.
