Ronaldo

Loven generally does, but then he pops up with a goal

he didn't struggle though, he had a very solid game

so did the two defenders either side of him, but lets not be negative for the sake of it

just like he did last season, when he was one of the biggest reasons we were relegated

what an absolute load of tosh, and nobody said Shearer couldn't control a ball

THIS IS NOT A WORD what the fuck are you on about?

Am I the only one who'd put Geremi in the midfield ahead of Butt? R Taylor Guthrie Barton Geremi Nolan Lovenkrands Anyone defending Nicky Butt's selection needs a f***ing slap, he makes the team worse just by being on the pitch

Lovenkrands should be up front and nowhere else

best record in English football tbh

Harper Simpson Taylor Coloccini Enrique R Taylor Guthrie Barton Geremi Nolan Lovenkrands

indeed. All the same he played very well

you called me a cunt that night if memory serves, such an angry young fellow

Sorry... did I say we were staying up or something? Please post the link where I have said, or implied, that everything was going to be OK. I got myself "exercised", did I? Is that why you started throwing needless insults? It's obvious that you're one of those saddos on here (and on the internet) that care greatly about their "messageboard reputation". Stop being so insecure and touchy. What's with you and Dave, anyway? Eh? So you won't be happy if we get out of this league by winning ugly? You're quoting Ronaldo and me but speaking to one person. Thick as mince, this all started because you assumed i didnt enjoy the win because i posted 'lucky win'. Which it was. It is therefore perfectly justifiable to call you stupid. As for being a saddo, you're the one getting your knickers in a twist because i thought we were lucky to win. Which we were. No, Einstein Jnr, I'm quoting you and ronaldo and speaking to two persons. Simple maths, c***. Ronaldo wasnt speaking to you, so why ask him to quote you when he was speaking to me? Been called a t*** and a c*** by you now and yet i'm right about your stupidity. to be fair, regarding the Boro game I was speaking to him.

Damien fucking Duff, you fucking cunt

Solid defender tbh, good acquisition

Harper 6 Simpson 6.5 Taylor 7 Coloccini 8 Enrique 6.5 R Taylor 6.5 Smith 7 Guthrie 6 Barton 6 Nolan 6 Ranger 6

this is what we've all got to look forward to for the next 3 years

Eh? He held the ball up perfectly almost everytime and the midfield were nowhere to be seen, if the likes of Nolan, Guthrie and Barton bothered he might look better. Made loads of important defensive headers as well.

couldn't care less Good for you. Try to enjoy it a bit. By me posting 'lucky win' you deduce i haven't enjoyed it? Sorry but you're clearly an idiot if you think that. I tend to use the forum to express opinions on the football. We were outplayed for most of the second half and the Taylor handball / Smith sending off were pivotal moments that we should have been punished for. So i thought we were lucky. No offence, but it just sounded like you're a right miserable t***. that's basically what you said to me when I declared my pessemism after the Boro game in April........

Pity we are playing on Tues night then eh? er no, it's wednesday

To be honest, Ranger did well in the second half against Leicester but isn't ready at all. We were basically playing 4-6-0 at times, and as a result, failed to threaten whatsoever

1 more than the Cardiff keeper

i like that

He didn't do too badly but the long balls to Ranger pissed me off no end.
