Poor performance by a poor player, it's a simple as that, lads. If we want to make a player out of him, we need to give him plenty of games at a level he can compete at and build from there.

We competed fairly well. But quality wins football matches and we had none of that in attack or midfield today.

It was about 3 or 4 weeks ago. Agree with you, though

Not against Ranger and Lovenkrands it isn't. Go away Mr Pessimism Will do, Mr Realism.

Carroll looked horrific early on then developed quicker than any striker i've ever seen. The one concern I have with Nile is that he's never once looked like a natural goalscorer to me, not once.

Not against Ranger and Lovenkrands it isn't.

Coloccini isn't a CM and never will be. I hope this puts to bed the complete crap that the usual mongs have been spouting for the last few months - or since Taylor returned from injury, more specifically.

You're missing nothing then.

Taylor's a f***ing despicable c***.

Love the NTL strips, but that's possibly because of that magnificent season in which they were used.

Plyometrics already, man. That's really encouraging.

That should be the team, although I get the feeling Pardew fancies Raylor despite the fact he's a f***ing holocaust of a Premier League footballer.

Why do you say stuff like this? You seem to be intelligent enough at times and then ruin it by needlessly belittling others and their opinions seemingly for your own sense of pride and place. Howay man ffs. Why rise to it? Everyone knows what an argumentative mug he is. I'm not rising to it, I'm disappointed. I want to like him, he clearly has a passion for the game and is opinionated but its just infuriating when you're reading threads and there is discussion going on and you read a petty little comment seemingly written by some angry kid. Which is probably what he is. There are certain members on here, who are here to belittle people behind the safety of a computer screen. Such people's 'intelligence' is irrelevant (or lacking an outlet in real life) when all they are trying to do is make other people look like 'retards' or 'idiots' for having an opinion that differs from their own/the norm. Give over. Cronky knows I was having a laugh.

Don't take everything too literally, stupid. His play will improve. You're f***ing incapable of substantiate your views. Instead of constantly labeling peoples opinions for rubbish, you could for once try to give the grounds for why you disagree... I could easily 'substanciate' my views. Lovenkrands has made a career of being an average second-tier forward, and is now past that glittering peak at 31. To expect 'another dimension' from him simply because one of our top players will likely be played out of position is absurd, frankly. Course, given that you're coming out with this stuff on a regular basis, you should know it already. I can't always feed your ignorance.

He isn't.

As if any sane person would ever choose to live in England over Belgium. You visit Belgium often, clearly.

Getting the fuck out of Belgium perhaps?

How? The good players who've been great surely deserve to be mentioned first. Simpson's been average.

Yep. The 'group of lads' is at a pivotal point at the moment, with the Nolan, Barton and Enrique situations. Our team spirit could very easily collapse with the loss of one or two of those. We need to reward this squad for what it has achieved and use it ad a springboard for the future. Ian he was sarcastic on the matter.... No he wasn't.

Jesus wasn't brown.

Another dimension. Give over with this rubbish, man.

Don't you just love it when folk barely intelligent enough to scan a tin of beans suddenly become psychologists?
