Ronaldo

well done to him, hope he knows he's got a a hell of a lot to learn before he's anywhere near being an international defender

Lescott pushing Ferdinand? madness

indeed let's not forget that Smith is 2 years younger and is certainly more robust to age than the little twat

he tries hard and will generally have 2 good games out of 3 he doesn't deserve abuse, leave him alone

can't believe people still wanna have a go at Bramble, leave the poor guy alone. The rest of the country think he's an absolute joke and a horrendous central defender. I'd like to think that despite his countless mistakes and concentration lapses we know he isn't that bad.

milner, luque and emre aren't slow but I wouldn't say they have pace

pie you're a fucking disgrace :parky:

Wish I could share your optimism. He's been poor here tbh. The comedy value of watching him and Milner take turns to boot the ball into various parts of the ground wore off a while back. Emre's temperament wouldn't worry you regarding captaincy? no, Emre's temperament might have been a positive thing relating to captaincy, I've always been proud of the way he's defended himself and teammates on the pitch

in........ in, as in the club?

I really think giving Emre captaincy could have been the making of him at this club like. Shame, but given the chance he will produce the goods on his return

i'm struggling to see what you're getting at what's wrong with Geremi, Barton, Emre?

Can you post a link to where I appear to have it in for him? even better if you can find the link to where I've said I prefer Bramble. I never had you down as the type to make stuff up, Gejon. Sorry mate meant Ronaldo ;D ;D ;D nothing I love more than innocents getting the flak for my biased criticisms

remember the look on Sam's face last year when Emre went for Diouf in the technical area at SJP think that was when I started loving Emre

has to be Tevez, same age as Torres, better and for less (in the short term)

tbh a 4-3-3 would suit Emre perfectly

I rate Cacapa as a very good player and Rozenhal as a good player. Got to admit, I'm dissapointed we haven't got a real top class CB approaching his peak in

hero tbh

well, opinions will differ but I'm really gonna stick my neck out with Cacapa and say I fully expect him to be the rock we've lacked since Woodgate left

it has yet to be seen whether Allardyce highly rates Taylor as he is now Henry Winter? come on, he's a journalist mate, a good one but a journalist all the same

Jebus. You've seen Cacapa how often in the Premiership?? the second time i've been asked that tonight, though you were more original monk, silly, silly question I expect Cacapa to be very good in the premiership and would be prepared to drop Taylor in order to find out. You expect him to be very good, based on his season warming the bench last year, or the hours of french games you've seen from before last season? He should only play if there is a gap, and after Bolton away, there is not a gap at CB at the moment for me. not based on any bench warming, based on the games I've watched him look like a composed and dominant defender. I'm not a Taylor fan, think he's average with the potential to be good. Cacapa is a very good defender for me and I think he can make the transition to the english game. maybe we should stick with Taylor. Will you be saying that the next time he's stupidly outpaced or gets sent off for using our pitch to convince all the guys who beat him at school that he's a tough guy now What do you think of Shambles now he no longer plays for us? How often have you seen Cacapa play, and when? Oh, and how did you think Taylor played last week? my opinion of Bramble is unchanged, no longer our player I don't wanna discuss him, I wish him good luck and hope he can sort himself out have watched Cacapa a fair few times, champs league, ligue 1. Must have seen him play a good 30 times. I'm a CB myself and tend to concentrate on them during games, he's caught my eye. Only saw him play once last season, I admit Taylor played well last week, I thought. But what difference does that make? using the same yardstick for bramble you'd be happy to have him back.....think brambles champs lge performances tbf Bramble only impressed me once in the champions league, Leverkusen away plus, have seen Cacapa in Ligue 1 not even milan away you mean Inter? he was decent but not quite impressive, didn't he lose Vieri for his goal? didnt he play very well throughout the game. your argument means all those times shearer scored were beacause the centre half was poor well no, I never said Bramble was poor vs Inter, I said he lost Vieri. I don't think he was impressive in that game, wasn't arguing anything.

too many dickheads making a big thing about ridiculous early league positions coming from a guy who shouted 'we are top of the league' in a Leeds pub like

medical today wasn't it? either way, would put money on it being completed tomorrow

should have bid for Bonera earlier in the season, can play RB and CB pretty well. Wasted in Milan's almost total football approach
