Ronaldo

Wasn't worth showing tbh.

Perez is the type of player who ultimately helps with build-up and getting the best out of a goalscorer. Putting him alongside a workhorse would result in zero cutting edge.

They're both just quite retarded.

Introduce?

You know fine well, though, that the game will be spun as a big positive by Carver, some of the players, some of the media, and probably a section of the fans, who thankfully I'm nowhere near.

Burnley are a point behind, no? Then again, I guess Sunlun are almost guaranteed 3 points from their next fixture.

Discuss what you want by all means. I don't want it regulated as I wouldn't want your mouth glued shut in real life. It is, however, pretty pathetic people still want to make Alan Pardew a topic of conversation on an NUFC forum 3 months after his being appointed at another club.

It is pretty pathetic that this thread is so active, mind. He's capable of winning games in bunches, he's a better manager than Charver, and he probably has a better squad to work with at Palace. None of it's new, none of it's really worth much discussion.

You can't turn anyone over without goals in the team. That's before you even consider how useless we are in defence.

Arsenal's performance in that second half was one of the most disgraceful things I've ever seen on a football pitch. They were second to absolutely everything, running around like they had lead weights taped to each limb. If that was a League Two game or lower I'd be utterly convinced it'd been fixed.

Aye. Another 500k player we've ruined.

That was the least plucky performance I've ever seen.

Wenger's a joke, like. Crying out for a sub and he sits there shaking his head like an incontinent old bastard realising he's forgotten to wear his nappy.

He's become completely shit at everything.

Who cares, man? The more teams above us the better. Ideally 16, obviously.

What?

Steven Taylor on Talksport: "We'll want to see more of the same second half."

Palace above us as things stand.

Sissoko going to a CL side, man. What a joke.

He retired in 2004 when the likes of Carrick hadn't even made much of a name for himself.

Jovetic is a disgrace.

Supporting him isn't working. He's a bigger nutter than ever. End of debate.

People need to stop with the well-wishing and give the silly bastard nothing. He's addicted to staying relevant and the only way to accomplish that in 2015 is to make a complete cunt out of himself.

Building the team around someone who'd retired?
