Ronaldo

aye that'll happen

And guess what, still has the best goals to starts ratio at the club (miuns Nolan and Shola)

I bet you would

For those leaveing Guthrie out, have a rethink about who creates most/all of our goals.

Woodgate

Lampard, Ballack, Essien and Cole together will absolutely demolish teams.

10.15

Good to see Joe Cole back and playing well today. I'd love to see him starting at the WC.

We should be appealing Blackburn's decision to loan him out to us as a football player.

no chance

The style and standard of our play has little to do with the back 4 tbh. It forces us to score more than 1 goal, which I was amazed we managed today. Eh? I'm saying the fact that we are toothless up front & hopeless in possession isn't really down to the back 4. And? I'm saying that without Taylor and Coloccini at the back I don't have any faith in us to win many football matches with our woeful attack. Which is why I'm bloody grateful they're nearly back. Fair point. The squad isnt strong enough and I am sure we knew that before the season started. Today the spine of the team was missing. Taylor, Collocini, Smith and Shola do make a difference but we need to worry about the january window as much as injuries. you've spent the last 10 minutes becoming an absolute legend in my eyes sir

We have the best defence in the league and that's the reason we're top instead of mid-table or lower. I wasn't attacking anyone, just pointing out that more starts for young Kadar this season wont exactly fill me with confidence.

I completely agree

This is the thing, a lot on here have no idea just how bad we're playing at the moment.

Not as embarrassing as some levels of protection given to Argie centre-halfs, like. Given how useless we've been without him, I feel completely vindicated in my defence of the lad. Down to Taylor more than Colo. Course it is. You going to tell me it''s down to Colo's unique style of passing bullshit again? Unique style of passing?

it'll double (or have doubled) by the time he scores

Fuk off man, where are they supposed to start, at the top? What's embarrassing is you attacking the lad for a dodgy performance in a s**** team, playing s**** football, with a s**** manager and huge pressure and expectations from the fans in what's his first handful of appearances at this level. Disgusting tbh. Attacking the lad? :lol:

I said Kadar looked a liability and anyone who was at the game probably felt the same. I haven't made any judgement on his long term potential but right now we can be thankful he's 4th or 5th choice.

We've conceded the least in the league because we have the 3 best defenders and the best keeper in the league. The long ball tactics do nowt but f*** up our possession and invite pressure.

Young players get an embarrassing level of protection on here. If it was up to some we'd have stuck with Paul Huntington.
