Ronaldo

Krul in goal is asking for trouble, as is Kadar in defence, and Lua Lua instead of Jonas. That team will get agressively and repeatadly raped

There'd be hell on if we bought jokers like Heskey, knight, Harewood and paid 12m for Milner. Heskey's a good player man

We all know what we'll get from shola, a load of bollocks. Xisco at least makes runs and gives the attack a hint of mobility. Shola's record in the champonshp doesn't make for positive reading. He'll be even worse in the fizzy pop league.

Harper R Taylor S Taylor Coloccini Enrique Jonas Guthrie Barton Duff Xisco Carroll

If we go into september without a new striker, I would urge anyone with long-term money problems to take advantage of the 20/1 odds for relegation

Good signing for them

i'm not so sure we'll get concrete offers and should new owners come in I doubt they'll be quick to offload, even in the form of loan deals

At this rate, Colo and Jonas will be here at least until January

he's still better than Kadar

Butt (thank fuck) is injured. And playing him ahead of Guthrie, did you blink and miss last season?

He's not Shola/he's played that role before for Bolton and scored a few. That's it, really. over 3 years ago aye. Nolan should be in midfield or not there at all, preferably the latter. As for Coloccini, he's done ok in pre-season. By no means the pick of the bunch in terms of poor effort

Kadar?

Van Nistelrooy and Romario would make better partners for Ronaldo

Stoitchkov was the man behind the man

Stoichkov was a great player but he has always been a massive c***.. thick as pig s*** too.. can hardly string a sentence together.. no respect for his personality whatsoever Shearer on the other hand is the better goalscorer, the better professional and not a f***ing idiot are you saying that Shearer is a better player than Hristo Stoitchkov?

I have to say, i'm nothing short of amazed that John Barnes, Alan Shearer and Nolberto Solano have been picked ahead of Hristo Stoitchkov here

cheers, edited

at PSV no?

The point is, they don't need him. Barry, De Jong, Kompany and Johnson can all fulfill that role. Mind, Alonso and Barry could be great together. clearly not

Shilton Couto Butcher Nadal Figo Gazza Guardiola Stoitchkov Beardsley Ronaldo Romario Bench: RVN Shearer Robert Waddle Robson Popescu Given

Have you (like me) forgotten Beardsley?

Van Nistelrooy (with his finishing and magnificent first touch) having the ball carried for him by a Ronaldo type would without exertion destroy any defence in the world. Didn't you once call RVN a bellend? Bit of bias rearing its ugly head here Tooj?

Those platic Manc Cunts couldn't come close to the depth of adoration we've demonstrated for Bobby over the last 4 days.

I would rank him there without a doubt, yes. Plus I'm on about the players abilities during the time Robson got to work with them. So I'd have had Lineker over Shearer on that basis. fair enough, not the rest though eh?
