Ronaldo

He's decent, no better.

In fairness to him, his passing options are severely limited. That squad is fucking abysmal

They've also occured with Coloccini and Enrique in the team, whats your point? If you'd bothered to read a few posts up, you'd know. There's no evidence to suggest we were at a disadvantage against Wigan because Nolan wasn't in the team. Honestly, some of you lot want some fucking fizzy cold water on your heads.

Krul's made plenty of howlers, as you'd expect from a keeper his age.

It was followed by a fantastic volley from Shola, 5 yards out, from which the ball ended up behind him.

Sunderland draw.

He's wrong on both counts, but I still think we would have done it - discounting Chris/Colin and then Shearer. Just barely. I do, too. But it would have gone right to the wire.

Kinnear was the complete opposite in every way to Hughton. I wouldn't be suprised if Chris had based his entire managerial persona on basically being Kinnear's antithesis.

Who said he was excellent? All of the defence (perhaps minus Simpson) were decent yesterday, no better.

He kicked out and got nothing on the ball. If that doesn't tempt the ref to blow, i don't know what does. Not saying it was a penalty, but he's clumsy when players run at him, and it will cost us at some point.

It's less than 2 years ago that Kinnear announced that he was prepared to sell him.

They were having a right go at each other on the pitch yesterday.

Could easily have given away a penalty early-on. Williamson is OK, i think folk (me included) just want to see what Sol can offer.

It's his weakness, like. Hope he sorts it out soon, and i'm sure he will. Hell of a keeper.

You're an embarrassment. City conceded goals for fun at the start of last season. He can't organize a defence and is incapable of dominating his box. His agility and reactions were once great, but they're firmly on the wain.

Earnt his reputation? And Sol Campbell is better than Gary Cahill.

Age, and that is the only reason. Hart is far, far better at dominating his box, a better distributor and a better shot-stopper.

If Lovenkrands was anything approaching mediocre, he'd be nailed-on to start.

Almost dropped? According to whom?

0-2 Blackpool, 1-2 Stoke.

As have our two best. He's played in all but one. There's no evidence to suggest we missed him against Wigan.

Given is on the bench where he belongs. Hart is better in every single respect.

Our two worst performances this season have occured with Nolan in the team.

He's a striker.

By that stupid logic, how many 'good' seasons has Given had at a 'good' club?
