Ronaldo

lets all hope so

where is all this rubbish?

which Shearer knows better than Hughton

the greatest news in all of this is that Joe Kinnear will never manage another game for NUFC

The last geordie to manage nufc also had his first game in charge against Chelsea

down from an 8 to a 7

Owen does the basics ok, but he cant really hold the ball up. And he wasn't head and shoulders our best player at the end of last season tbh. You could make a case for Viduka and Martins, even Faye in those last 9 or so games

Rooney literally gives 10 times more to the england team than Owen, whether he is scoring or not. Course he's a better goalscorer than Owen anyway

it is impossible

He doesn't seem to like Taylor, so you can forget about him being played at CB

Good point. Also wonder how he truly feels or felt about Keegan quitting just 4 months after "convincing" him to sign back in 97. 6 months, but yes, indeed

wonder how Shearer will feel if his summer transfer plans are negatively impacted by Keegan's compensation claims

:lol: my vote for post of the year so far

Oba and Xisco should benefit a hell of a lot from this. Given that they're both laced with ability crying out to be compounded with genuine intelligence

I'd have Xisco over Carroll any day of the week. Ditto, actually. Glad i'm not the only one

Shearer will surely take one look at Andy Carroll and laugh. That system worked because of Viduka and his brilliance, however brief

He was injured for a lot of the Euro 2006 qualifiers, surprise surprise so that's a daft point to make. Out of interest what was his record for Euro 06 qualifying? funny you didn't mention it England produced Wayne Rooney who managed 4 goals in a single tournament pal. 4 goals for Owen in 4 tournaments is pathetic, whichever way you want to spin it

You think any of the above stats vindicate a striker whose any real impact on a game is goals? Especially in a team with creatively brilliant players like Lampard, Gerrard, Beckham and Cole He's been on the wain for 5 years and your stats demonstrate that to be honest. Nice sidestep for the 4 in 15 stat btw. He's let England badly down in the tournaments, pathetic record for a 'goalscorer' Owen fans, bunch of wankers clinging to a Ballon d'or winner to validate their club, pathetic

The end for Butt, Duff and Shola I hope. Taylor gets a reprieve until the summer on account of his decent performances at RB A manager bigger than Ashley is just what we need to get rid of these overrated pieces of shit

who gives a fucking shit why he's done this. We'll have someone capable of leading a football team

lets hope not, regarding Owen

sorry, the lovely lad is without a left foot

Shearer saw what I posed in the Owen thread and was inspired, clearly

very good player how? the cunt doesn't even have a left foot. class finisher my prick, he's a decent finisher these days who misses 1 easy chance for every chance taken

shite
