Ronaldo

I just can't understand anyone saying no to him. Just look at the rubbish we have to partner Carroll.

Is he bollocks. Keane can strike a football, for a start.

A lot of us (myself included) went a tad overboard when Perch took the absolute piss out of Jonas. In retrospect, that was very fucking stupid.

Rodwell is a lot better, from what i've seen.

He isn't a midfielder, but i'd probably rather have him than Best, Lovenkrands and Shola combined.

I wanted us to sign Becchio 2 years back. He'd easily be our second best striker. Here's me being right:

His form has been exactly the same throughout the season, with a couple of games as exceptions.

Gradel is good. I'd probably define him as a poor man's Bellamy. I'd prefer him to Jonas in all honesty.

Most gifted since Pedro.

Less than Xisco.

He constantly reminds me of Kinnear.

Is that in De Las Cuevas? Ron has been going on about him since the beginning of time. Damn right. And with good reason - he's the missing link.

That was after you massaged his wang with your tongue. What was he saying before? Cole. Beckford. Shut the f*** up. Cole and Beckford too? I was adamant both their nobs we the same but then I changed my mind. Repugnant.

Rooney's been no goal threat, but he's never been as invisible as Torres tonight.

Torres has been worse.

A broken clock is right twice a day, mate. I wouldn't worry about it.

How is commenting on Jose's Twitter feed or Ranger's lateness for training any different than Hughton saying Carroll had been 'a bit below par' in training a couple of months back? I don't like Pardew much, but there are some laughable double standards on display in this thread.

I think both worked equally well with Colo last season. I do think we conceded less goals in the first half of the season, though.

Can you imagine Ben Arfa in The Championship?

Never said it was. Said it was a contributing factor.

Are you joking? Because he was criminally exposed by a player not sticking to his position. The WBA game is the best example I can think of it.

Not sure I agree with this. Simpson seemed to start pretty brightly and got worse as the season went on, and for the second half of the season he had Routledge in front of him who was excellent. Nah man, it was the anti-christ Guthrie. He's so terrible that he makes other players terrible... You're never going to give up with this nonsense, are you? I'm sure that you yourself identified that we were hopless down the right with Guthrie on that side.
