Ronaldo

What's that based on? He's said it often enough, he doesn't have to Don't be fooled by empty footballers spiel. His performances and work rate this season will tell you he doesn't give a toss about the club. How do you explain the 1 in 2 goal rate before his injury then? Out of sheer curiosity

Why? Solano been quoted today that he want to be a coach here. I think he will do alright. Good on set pieces, technique and other skills. And if he have Spanish speaking players, he will be a help for them. You cant really teach skill, not after the player has hit 18. I saw no evidence of him having the personality to be a coach either

What's that based on? He's said it often enough, he doesn't have to

If we're picking old players for coaches then Gary Speed must surely be a better option than Solano

Same for me, i ordered a new copy of the entertainers 93-94 season a while back. It arrived the day before Villa away

He's less effective than Coloccini? (Bassong i'll give you)

I know your point, it'll just sicken me if we buy a striker for £4m+ and keep the likes of Duff (70k pw) with Martins sold to Everton or whoever

We bought Colo for 14 million euros. If he's going back to Spain, an asking price of 9 million euros should be enforced

Thinking hypothetically, Keeping Martins would not be such a financial disaster considering the amount it'll cost to replace him

We shouldn't be thinking that way at all

I'd absolutely love to keep him if at all feasable. It's a case of either paying £4M for Beckford or losing the £6M for Martins and paying his £70K a week

Ameobi did perform brilliantly for Stoke in the championship

You think we should keep him then? unless we're offered £8m plus, absolutely. He's still an big asset and well though of on the continent

Part of me saw that coming tbh, he seems to love the club and the area That said, they'll still try to sell him

Beckford and someone else would work better than any combination we could list out of the strikers likely to stay

We should not accept less than £8m for him to be honest

I think in a year from now we'll all be pretty happy. What happens after that, fuck knows

Hope you're not suggesting for one second that if we got Beckford in you'd play Carroll before him

Seems about £3m OTT. it does, but he's young and talented, if only we'd spent £6m on a player like that 2 years ago instead of Alan fkin Smith

I'd pay Lovenkrands out of my own pocket if it meant Shola being further away from the first Xl

I would only ever play Beye in the centre if we insisted on using S Taylor at RB

which bar in Orlando out of interest? You should have glassed him

With that Everton shirt it doesn't help that the poster looks like a warning against inbreeding. Honestly, Howard and Phil Neville in the forefront?

What the fuck is Denilson doing there?

Nobody implied such a thing Speaking of pub teams, isn't your country bottom of a league which includes Scotland, Iceland and Macedonia? Burn!!!!!!! Not a burn considering at that time we had only played 2 matches, while the others had played 4, and with one win we'd be second with one game to spare on the others. Now it's a burn though, as we've just drew against Macedonia. at the time you'd played 3, you've now played 4
