Ronaldo

Perez isn't a striker, though, to be fair.

Suggests that he will give something different to the starting 11 for me. Yep. Which isn't tough to figure out, to be honest. We've got nothing else like him in the squad.

Regarding the temperament, he'll grow up. Especially now that we've got a proper manager he can respect and learn from. I strongly doubt he'll ever be 'great' but he's certainly good at holding the ball up and bringing others into play and he will get goals. Perhaps not enough to to justify the team being built around him but his finishing will only improve too. Not getting the no.9 shirt is the best thing that could've happened to him this summer. He'll play both without pressure and the incentive to earn it over time. We'll see a better NUFC with him available again.

At best it should be our 3rd priority anyway. We need a player for LW far more, for a start.

What in the fuck?

That just looks fucking ridiculous, man.

Honestly I just love wingers and I hate it when that position in the side is filled by talentless grafters who knock the ball sideways 5 yards and then get praised for not being wasteful in possession. Fuck it.

Many of us wanted him in the side when he was sacked off by Pardew. He was quality for us in the Championship and wasn't bad when we went up. Fucking ridiculous to think he only spent a year here.

A win/loss makes so much difference in here it's ridiculous, like.

It's abysmal that, like. Remember the days of Lynam, Hansen, Brooking and Jimmy Hill. Murphy and Phil Neville ffs.

What would you play him as, then? He's certainly no winger. The sooner we get rubbish like him out of the team and start building for the future the better.

Janmaat's every bit as effective as Debuchy going forward. Debuchy was in a much better side, too. I'm not surprised his career's gone where it has because he was never a top-4 RB.

Aye, OK. They're both just not that good at defending.

I can see him doing very well this season, but I hope Rafa's curbed his tendency to react and lose his focus when roughed up a bit. It'll happen a hell of a lot in this league. He just has to rise above it, not get involved and stick it up them in the form of goals.

This is definitely the new 'Coloccini as a DM' like. It's an utterly fucking stupid suggestion, even discounting the fact our best player so far is a RW.

Staying on point there.

Aye. Mbemba, Ritchie and Gayle need to be protected. We don't have any replacements for them.

Quack quack.

2 wins in 23 and barely a word against him, man. Tells you everything you need to know about the punditry in this country. There'll be more criticism of Klopp this week.

I don't. I like the bloke.

Need to wrap him in cotton wool. Purchase a good supply line from the left, pair him with Mitrovic and he'll get more goals in this league than Carroll and Cuntenkrands combined.

Doubt we're going to see 3/4 players likely to be sold against Cheltenham, like.

Ha.

What an effort and save.

Just dawned on me I'm going to be up during this. Might just go.
