Ronaldo

Load of shite. He's a very average Championship player who thinks he's about ten times better than he actually is.

Nolan isn't in form, not really. Certainly not international form, anyway. He's doing Ok and went on a pretty good run of scoring in the first half of the season.

He was asked the question..in typically KK fashion,he answered it honestly.One of the reasons I love Keegan so much is his emotion and wearing his heart on his sleeve,which went a long way to getting players to play for him...imo.I think if Kevin asked me to run through a brick wall ,I'd do it,such is the passion he's showed for our club down the years. Leadership by charisma. It's part of what made him possibly the best manager we've ever had.

Based on this year, DJ Campbell is better than Drogba, Torres and Rooney. It doesn't work like that, mate.

Clattenberg should never be allowed anywhere near a football match in an official capacity ever again. Rooney should be banned for the rest of the season.

Tomfoolery. God I love that word.

Perhaps because Lampard's about a hundred times the player.

Messi's taking the piss, man. Surely?

Yeah, you'd think people regarded the N'Zogbia bid as a complete joke and the transfer had no chance of materialising or something. Idiots with conspiracy theories. They should all be locked up.

Didn't see that coming.

A judgement that confirmed what people suspected of Ashley and co, but also meant that Keegan's decision for the club that 'means so much to him' was to leave it in the lurch and solely in the hands of those people. Quite right, he should have fought back.

Racist.

Going by this season if we'd had like for like replacements when injured we'd be knocking around the points chelsea are on, they are a class apart from us but my point stands. I'm talking about players like Wayne Routledge, not Joey Barton.

I just wish our squad was 'filled' with players with a bit of fight and ability to improve who can come in and do an OK job at the level at which we're playing. There's no reason we can't bring in a Championship winger on half of Raylor's wages, with twice the ability. There's absolutely no reason at all.

80% of the squad are happy mediums, mate.

Ben Arfa did f*** all in that game tbf. Give over, man.

Why is it the thread title then?

He's not very good. He is alongside Gameiro.

Barreto at Bari.

Two f***ing abysmal teams, how on earth Hughton managed to engineer two defeats against them - with Tiote in CM both times - is beyond me.

I'll take that from our third choice right-mid. You'll take a player who spends most of the game hiding? Ok.

Delap? He has about 6 in his career. None this season.

Both Best and Ben Arfa should be on the pitch for us when all are fit.

Shola's back.

Good man-management, but he wasn't anywhere near terrific, he was absolutely crud. Tidy, but crud. Players who hide and come up with nice touches every now and then - Guthrie, Lovenkrands, Raylor - get too much credit on here.
