Ronaldo

You've got nowt to worry about then, really. If Rafa's still here next season I highly doubt Mitro will be.

Thing about Dummett, his weaknesses wouldn't, in theory, be exacerbated by a move up to the PL. There'll be less of an onus on him to go forward with it and he seems to be similarly effective defensively. I do agree we need a better starting LB long term, though. Hopefully in the summer.

He definitely didn't play well today, like. Certainly not in the second half.

To be fair, there's at least 3 posters on here that want rid of Rafa. Brewce will unfortunately get them up next season imo.

Need him back. Give me a fucking break.

Yes he got him with a high foot.

I'm sure I've seen that joke on here about a dozen times too many, like.

12 goals by early Feb is pretty impressive, like. He'll finish on 20 at that rate.

I feel a bit bad for him and I certainly don't see a lack of application there. Rafa's system demands a quick striker with intelligent movement who can play effectively in isolation. This isn't Mitrovic and never will be. Their working relationship has no future.

Carson twice (in one minute) tried to win a penalty by pulling Lascelles to the ground on top of him. I hope his car gets hit by a train.

Fucking hell, how do you miss that?

We look much better with Diame, like. He drives the whole team forward on the ball and we've got no one else like that.

What the fuck was Cech thinking?

How fucking desperate must they be?

The only problem is, Hanley's an inferior player.

Give it a rest with the guff, then. There are a hell of a lot of stones to be thrown at the PL but lack of top end competition isn't one of them. Certainly not compared to leagues of comparable quality.

Exactly this, but Ron knew that. He's just being like that because it's what he does. 4 different winners in the last 4 seasons says you're talking shit, as per.

What does this nonsense even mean?

To be fair none of our centre halves look good....one looked ok in thre prem, probably the best at bringing the ball out but hasn't been given a chance at this level, as for the forward, done ok in the prem and similar to Murphy in this divison, played in formations or tactics that dont suit. Or do you think if the manager doesnt play them it means they're crap.....means Colback's great no ? I like both Mitrovic and Mbmeba as it happens, but neither were remotely fit for the purpose they were bought for. We needed two players to form opposite ends of the team's spine in the Premier League.

To be fair, Carr was tasked with bringing in a starting CB and ST for the Premier League and given a budget of over £20m to do so. The fact that the players he chose are now effectively behind Daryl Murphy and Grant Hanley in the pecking order in the Championship says it all. He's a fucking shit scout probably trying to blame shift.

Unfortunately this is one of the those rare occasions where you're essentially right. Some of them would stay regardless. Far too many.

"It’s a disgrace to be honest and if I was American I would of got something like this ten years ago." I think that sums the thick twat up pretty well.

I'd rather have Rafa on his worst day than Klopp, personally.

You'll get your chance tomorrow Ah, I thought ON was in there with him today. Make sure you give him lots of love tomorrow, like.
