Ronaldo

S Taylor gives far too many daft fouls away in daft areas.

Both full-backs had plenty time on the ball tonight because of the congestion in the middle and both let us down.

Correct.

Maybe so. But let's not rewrite history and say we would've scored everytime we don't score without him. I didn't say that, i just don't like starting a game with Carroll and Lovenkrands. I said 2 days ago to Kezman that the partnership wouldn't work. They've played together once haven't they? Bit early to say it won't work. We were playing alright in the first half. Both are terrible footballers, basically. It's obvious they wont work.

2 strikers, 1 of which has proved nowt in this league?

Stop being silly Ronaldo, if other players had taken their "easy" chances then we wouldn't even be talking about the player who can finish chances

He deserves a contract, based on his goalscoring ability alone.

At least he's got 4 goals to show for his brilliance.

Never happen.

5 goals in his last 6 games and he'd have made no difference?

I didn't bring him up either.

He benches our best two attacking players against a team there for the taking and you have faith?

Didn't you say last night that if Harewood came back we'd have four of the best strikers in the league? We could've done with a Harewood vintage tonight like, maybe the Notts Forest or Doncaster perormances. Harewood has more goals than your pal Carroll despite having half the time on the pitch.

Because Pancrate performed better when he was on the pitch. I'm a fan of Jonas but he once again let himself down with his delivery.

He certainly wasted far more.

Harper 7 Simpson 5.5 Taylor 6 Coloccini 7 Enrique 5 R Taylor 6 Smith 6.5 Nolan 6 Jonas 5.5 Loven 5 Carroll 5 Shola 5 Ranger 5 Pancrate 6

Anyone (and there are a few on here) who think that Shola, Loven, Ranger and Carroll are adequate needs a talking to. Only one of those is good enough for side in the top 2.

Kilgallon will get murdered in the premiership anyway.

Who cares about Boro?

That just isn't true.

Play Lampard in his best position, fucker.

He is.

Not that I have a massive amount of faith in Hughton's judgement, but Lovenkrands must be shitting the bed big time in training to be behind Ranger in the pecking order. Given of course that Lovenkrands is experienced and a Hughton signing.

Fair post.
