Ronaldo

Seriously I don't see how this is not discussed more. How did Steven Taylor fail to ever improve as a footballer ? It just blows my mind. He improved a lot, just not enough, really.

I hate saying it but I really do hope City do us and we keep losing till this arsehole is forced out.

I'd like to think this place isn't stupid enough to read much at all into friendlies, like.

I don't like him but we had worse on the LW last season.

Personally I'd say we only won because Alsoran, Haidara and Colo went off.

The Moose.

Wish he had tbh. Need him to know he's not welcome. Both of these posts are daft.

Already better than Alsoran.

Get in.

Colback is like the ginger Xavi.

To the goal, no; to concentration spans, absolutely.

We really have too much shit at the forefront of our squad, like. Fucking Alsoran starting.

Haidara makes Santon look like Ashley Cole.

Is about right.

'Really well' is overstating it. He had a fairly decent season in 07-08.

I always rated FF when he was in in our reserves and at one point I thought he looked better than Krul. But £10m based on looking vaguely like the Schmeichel of the SPL? Ridiculous.

Need a hell of a lot more than that to replace Remy's contribution, like. 14 goals and a hell of a lot of important contributions leading to goals.

Bellamy and Dyer were consistently better than him (when on the pitch). I don't think Hatem would've got into the Keegan side. He'd take Solano's place in the Bobby side but by no means would the team be more geared to him than Shearer, Bellamy or Robert.

Surely it would be humane to just shoot you.

Shut up TT.

Man management skills mustn't have been taught at window cleaner school. To be fair, I'd have told Smith he was utter shit and ought to be playing in League Two.

Because he might be better? Stop playing dumb. There are lots of candidates who might be better. Why would you pick Peter Beardsley out of all the possible options other than he's cheap and will kiss Ashley's arse when required? There you go again. I never said I'd 'pick' Beardsley over 'lots of candidates'. I said I'd pick him over Pardew.

He's our best/main striker. Sad, but true.

Cantona and Keane ffs.

Because he might be better? Stop playing dumb.
