Ronaldo

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.

Smith ran his bollocks off, there's no hint whatsoever of reverting to previous form. The problem with Smith has been there for all to see all season, he could have easily been sent off against Sheff Wed and Reading and was finally punished today. Needs to cut out the daft fouls though, constantly in the last third.

What do we introduce when we keep giving the ball away when we need someone to pass it around and take off the pressure? Ah yes, a kid who's never played a league game before Well you never know he may just do a bit better than Barton at the moment. This Vuckic stuff is getting unbelievable. The kid might be a good prospect, but it's far too early for him and when we have seen him (Albeit for a couple of minutes) against Leicester he didn't look too great. you're right, that was one of the worst performances i've ever seen, dock his pay, send the c*** home

We need to start keeping the ball. Playing the long pass to Ranger is resulting in loss of possession all the time. Need to start playing through the midfield and getting Barton, Guthrie and Nolan involved. On the counter attack we really should murder this lot. Made up for Coloccini like, well done son

said a source enough said.

Best striker in the world for me, as i've said for the last 3 years. I wish he was younger as I absolutely love watching him play

Seems decent odds, where from? skybet also

He's about as far from a 'Mourinho' player as you can get tbh, which hasn't helped his cause

He'll probably get a load of flak again if he f***s up in the same way he did at West Brom. which didn't warrant anywhere near the shit he got after the game.

If we concede a goal, that'll be it for Harper on this forum

When Man U won I put some bets on for tonight/tomorrow Juventus Sevilla Inter Us Fulham to draw Villa £2 gets a £160 return

indeed. Takes me back to the argument about Quaresma only looking good because it was the Portguese league

Luis Fabiano scores again! Come on Sevilla!

a draw will take us back to the top

At a guess Bowyer vs Dyer? :lol:

The Milan fans have & they seemed to have rated him pretty highly. as do I I don't think he was ever the world's best player though The thing with Kaka I think he has to be one of them you watch you every week as he does not do the stuff that gets highlights like Ronaldo & Messi. courtesy of Sky Bet Player I watched him for most games last season, he's damn good but in the premiership I'd rather have Lampard

How many people have watched Kaka week in, week out? He's great but nowhere near as good as has been perpetuated by the mainstream media

yep, bang on. Shearer was twice the player but by no means had anything like the first touch of Viduka

One of the maddest posts ever in internet history It's mad now, sure, but at the time Lampard was in the final year of his contract with Chelsea stalling on a new deal, whilst we on the other hand had a billionaire owner in charge who was supposedly willing to pump money into landing a major star player or two. If we had done what Man City did regarding Robinho (or what we did with Owen from Real), and offered Lampard £200k per week or more, would he honestly have said "no"? Without doubt. Kaka was on the verge of a move to Man City. He's easily better than Lampard, recently the best player in the world, has a higher profile worldwide, and was considering a move to a mid table club with a sitting duck in Mark Hughes in charge. Money talks. Lampard is greedy. It was a possibility, even if a remote one, and hence I don't think Keegan including the player on a wishlist is a sign of madness. what an absolute load of nonsense Not really, but without meaning to be disrespectful (it's your opinion after all) then you've stated you believe Lampard to be better than Xavi, despite Xavi outclassing him in every single meaningful encounter so far, so I'd expect this from you. Kaka has put in high quality performances in the CL and at international level in big games. Not consistently enough given his talent and he can go missing at times, but he's at least shown his class at that level. Lampard on the other hand has done nothing other than look like a plodder at those same levels in similar big games. yeah, he went missing in the champions league final didn't he. How about last season's quarter final? Lampard wont shine if conservative tactics are being employed, but he's still done well in those situations imo.

I admit it, I really like Hughton now and will be severely pissed off if Shearer gets the job without us slipping up. I hope he doesn't spoil it by playing Nicky Butt tomorrow and on Wednesday

He'll get 15-20 this season and be nailed on to start every game in the premiership next season, where he'll get 5-7
