Ronaldo

He's quite clearly a good coach with a good footballing philosophy.

You'd prefer coaches with no real top level credentials? Hoddle's not ideal but I'm confident he'd have us playing good football and winning more games than Pardew.

Not a chance, man. He'd have shone through in the company of crap like Riviere on his worst day.

Making the case against it?

I expected KI's back to be more hairy. Well I found this funny.

Something about Hatem makes people talk utter rubbish, like. On both sides of the argument.

Canada, going by the web address on his Twitter page. He's surely having a laugh, like.

Brilliant.

I'd say man-management is Ancelotti's major strength. He's an absolutely brilliant tactician, though.

Sounds like Milan Baros.

Do you never just get tired of posting stuff you definitely won't do?

Because the interest is completely one-sided. Him and his wife are desperate to be back. It's just not gonna happen. Nor should it. Clearly.

Sorry, mate. I believed.

Dear God, man.

Away at Everton. 2 pens, both top corner. Not too many better from 12 yards. Le Tiss, Cantona and RVN is all I can think of.

Christ on a cross.

Durham's one of the few who's talked sense about us in the past few months.

If he does he's already on borrowed time, thankfully. This idiot was offering fans out not 4 months ago, man. He almost makes Pardew look shrewd and statesmanlike.

Even a stopped clock is right twice in a day though http://gifrific.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Blackadder-Confused-Look.gif

He certainly must be if he didn't physically hold a shotgun to Pardew's face and tell him that aiming for Mike Williamson's midget head doesn't work.

Cameron and Ryder, at best, know as much as us, man.

The world's very best as a mentor at 3 different clubs. Must have learnt something.

It's common sense that Ben Arfa was being cited in any effective argument against Pardew in the autumn. For him to subsequently defend Pardew's position obviously conflicted with that line of criticism. As for the Fox News comparison. Pretty rich given that you've basically just pulled some utter crap out of thin air. I never called him a Pardew apologist. I said it's stupid - though thoroughly unsurprising on here - to suggest Hatem helped remove Pardew.
