Ronaldo

Fair play. Save your strength for the Job Centre.

Giggs and Vidic. :lol:

Given was as bad as Harper for standing on or near his line and he was just as quiet. In my opinion as a former GK, Given was actually worse than Harper in that respect. Harper is a far more commanding keeper than Shay IMO. The one thing that Given had over Harper was his lightning quick reflexes, not that it ever seemed to help on PK's though. has done for city tho! He's exactly the same as he was here, can't organize a defence or dominate his area to save his life and makes lots of good saves that are portrayed as being out of this world.

You'd be delighted if he fucked off? You're bright.

A strike partnership with 4 goals between it in 6 months? Change it. Shut up man. Harewood has 3 in 6 starts If your only counting starts then I reckon that is 2 in 6 starts as he scored his 1st goal when he came off the bench. Who do you think is capable of scoring more goals, him or Carroll?

Someone on the right with pace vs someone who gets overtaken by a snail? Not a hard choice. You've watched him play once, get over it.

A strike partnership with 4 goals between it in 6 months? Change it. Shut up man. Harewood has 3 in 6 starts and Lovenkrands 1 in 2 starts as a striker.

Yep, that should be obvious.

In a word, yes.

Harewood will and should keep his place.

Taylor? You can't be serious.

He's right though, none of them are premiership strikers.

Well we could go down the solid Gary Cahill, Ryan Shawcross route for a similar amount or stick with a player who has a proven track record of keeping world class attackers quiet (Iniesta complained about him after the game 2 weeks back). Just needs to adapt his game, he's certainly not the first.

Carroll and Harewood are two completely different players.

No. £10m buys you an average centre half, basically. I think he can be one hell of a player in the premiership.

Aye, actions speak louder but to be fair he's certainly been putting in the effort. I just hope he stays.

I thought you'd done yourself in.

Comes from his name, myspace page, age and impressive reserve tally.

People who call themselves 'fans' of clubs in other countries better have a damn good to reason for it or else I don't have any time for them. Football at it's absolute most pretentious.

Yeah remember him winning Champion's League with Madrid a couple of times once and also Euro 2000 with France...he also had 2 exceptional world cups...98 and 2006. Ronaldo? FYP That totals about 20 games, i'm convinced. Seriously though, each to their own. But goals win games and for almost 10 years Ronaldo was the best in the world at doing that. I'll be honest with you,I'd put Romario on a par with Ronaldo at the very least. Romario was more gifted than Ronaldo, but his work ethic let him down. And that's part of being a successful player too. Aye, Bobby's autobiography says that one best. He struggled to get Romario onto the training pitch and couldn't get Ronaldo off it.

Why? Because I despise Man U and like Chelsea.

Hopefully for Chelsea, whilst they rape Man U for the next decade.

As above, it was obvious even at 18/19 that Henry would become a great player. The same most certainly isn't obvious about wor Nile, which is why it was a bad comparison by dcmk.

I think if you boys were a manager, desperately needed a win and could only choose one of the above to play for you, it probably wouldn't be Zinedine Zidane. But if so, each to their own.
