Ronaldo

True, like. Only rubbish like Man Utd, Real Madrid & AC Milan. Man U got rid of him in that period, he won nowt at Madrid until the season he was peripheral and he's now a substitute at Milan who have him on loan.

As much as Gerrard is a tad overrated, he could have walked into any team in europe in the last 7 years and won all of that. You cannot say the same about Beckham.

Tbh I say we lock this thread now. As for the injury, I hope it ends his career.

By the time he returns it'll be nearly 2 years since he last scored in a league start.

Beckham is so overrated it's embarrassing, Lampard for me.

Backup would be good, starting would be less good.

When typing that I was thinking about how punchable Barry's face is.

I'm not a big fan of Barry, perhaps due to the fact he's a complete prick.

Each to their own, but I couldn't disagree more, Carrick absolutely bossed the midfield.

Carrick was the best player on the pitch on sunday for me, don't see where Messi is coming from. Probably his agenda against english players not named Beckham.

Carrick was woeful in the carling cup final? Fucking hell.

Carrick is easily our best CM behind Lampard and Gerrard.

I'd much rather us go into the summer with Ashley certain that he's going to be there in August.

Take out James and I agree with that to some extent.

In all honesty, what the hell is wrong with this Macca? It's one thing hearing voices, completely another seeing posts that aren't actually there.

As things stand, of course Beye is better, he'd be a good signing considering his versatility.

Tevez is a much better comparison. Bergkamp wasn't the type of player to really run at defenders like Pedro did.

Cole was the best player on the pitch during the first half of saturday's game. He's a fantastic footballer who shouldn't be overlooked.

20 outfield players is more than enough.

2 keepers, bad idea.

Gerrard just isn't doing it for England anymore, it's a shame.

Nobody said he was owt more than a good player.

Just a word on the Ambrose thing. It isn't all because of his excellent recent form that I want him here, he's a player I wanted us to sign back in August. He could do well in the premiership imo.

£2m a year seems very low for a player of that calibre. He's going to be the best striker in the world one day.

Someone who could provide cover all across the back four like Ben Haim would be nice. I'd love us to sign Ambrose and Aldo Duscher as replacements for Nolan, Smith and Butt.
