Ronaldo

He's been relatively injury free for 2 seasons, you cant use that as any sort of excuse

Rather a sad attitude. It's the same circumstances which meant he missed so many games for us you know. http://www.otf2.com/forums/images/smilies/sorry.gif not being good enough?

I find it fucking hilarious that half the england strikers could get injured and he still wouldn't be in the squad

I can think of 7 goals he scored for us off the top of my head wikipedia says 5, guess thats where the NOTW gets their expert info from, wankers

what absolute nonsense

28 goals in three years is appalling, i honestly believe i could do better myself. 28 goals for Martins isn't bad going considering what a completely thick stupid c*** he actually is. He probably goes through life thinking every day is Saturday. How many times do you need to be told that 28 goals is a stat that Djmattis plucked from thin air?

What's Cary Elwes doing publishing books?

i'd be saying 'right, he's done his duty, no more' Lovenkrands has been here 6 months, scored 3 goals in the time Owen scored 0, yet it's he who actually comes out and apologizes to the fans. Which one is the club captain here?

made for each other

or Chelsea

Nail on head. The same poster will most likely be eating words once more when Andy Murray wins a slam this summer or next

That is way, way over the top, verging on the absolute bollocks to be honest. Im not his biggest fan, and dont think he offers a lot to the team overall, but in terms of predatory instincts he is world class. There arent any better than him in the game at timing his runs, and he does finish a lot of his chances. You only have to look at the past few games where he's been incorrectly ruled offside against Arsenal and Man Utd. IMO he has been getting sharper with each game since his return, and will improve (as long as he stays fit). He's never going to be the type of player to take on men and run around all day, he's about waiting and timing, but that doesnt make him lazy. Wasn't though was it? There was only one was Owen was going to go. Didn't he go onto be the third most prolific striker in the PL under Keegan? Under Keegan he got 7 goals from open play in 17 games hardly earth-shattering tbh, but it's decent I guess Yeah cause he had a team of gifted giants behind him. Under Keegan we were actually creating quite a lot as I remember Do you disagree with what I said about 7 in 17 being decent? Or do you think that's something to be proud of from a player who distributes brochures calling himself a world class goalscorer?

Ah Mary, have you got me glasses?

completely agree He's slow, has a poor engine, creates bollocks all and his tackling is sketchy at best get f***ing rid I'd start Guthrie and Barton assuming we bring no one in. Guthrie and Barton would absolutely run the show in that league

And for once you're absolutely spot on, keep it up

At this point, I have to question the legitimacy of anyone claiming to be an nufc fan and defending the guy. He's taken the piss out of your club for years and continues to do it even after 'kicking' his last ball

Ribery, move Rooney up front. Still a hell of a team. True. But Chelsea were only 7 points off Man U last season, they'll improve next season. If Liverpool can keep Gerrard and Torres together all season plus bring in a couple of players they'll be the favourites for me tbh. Were only? 7 points is huge imo. If we had 7 more points we would of finished midtable. we would have finished 13th, and obviously 7 points means more at bottom end of the table than it does at the top. 7 points is 2 wins and a draw, which i'm confident Chelsea would have easily achieved had they had Drogba fit all season. Or if they'd had Hiddink all season for that matter.

Basically blaming his status as club captain for his lack of goals, honestly

I think Ferguson might just have won his last title as Man U boss

Are we absolutely sure this is for real? I've never read such incredible nonsense in my life

"mental strength and powerful physique" what a pathetic, delusional wanker

Nobody is saying Martins IS better than Adebayor, and truth be told I think even potentially better is stretching it. Not that I think Adebayor is a world class player, he clearly isn't
