Ronaldo

How so? Because again he's going where the most money is. A player with all that talent and in 10 years nobody will remember him.

Funny he scores and assists more than Van Persie and it's Rooney who's had the bad season.

Which I'd say is pretty unlikely if we can't overtake 7th or 8th.

If Cabaye was a poor leader what the fuck is Coloccini?

As I just pointed out, Stoke are irrelevant in a discussion about the feasibility of finishing 7th or 8th.

As I said last night, it's far better than the useless lump he's replacing.

We are one good ST away from getting in the top 7/8 in my opinion. :lol: You saying we can't over take Stoke and Southampton? Stoke finished 9th. 7th and 8th were Man U and Southampton. And no, we can't.

HTT, was Zidane better than Amdy Faye?

We're still far weaker than we were when we started last season's farce.

I hate to be negative but none of them look any good.

Shola managed 0 goals from the bench. I think we've found a decent replacement, like.

Can see Anita playing the Perch utility role next season, like. Certainly see don't see him starting if the current midfield lot remain here.

Bellamy calls Bobby the best manager he ever worked with and the one who improved his game the most in his book. High praise.

It's sad, like. I know they've been brought up with nothing and thus lean towards making as much as possible in their footballing window but all of them could have good careers in proper leagues at clubs with fans who'd revere them.

Nobody did. If Pardew wasn't in charge I'd have gone, tbh. Shortish drive from my gaff.

Keeping the ball and attacking with it are two different things, mind. Obviously Pardew's mentality represent a massive, massive problem but our fringe attacking players really are abhorrently poor, by anyone's standards.

I didn't see it, but with the rubbish on the field in that last half hour in particular I'd be surprised if we managed to cross to halfway line without hoofing it - which always results in loss of possession anyway. Crap men against crap boys = defeat.

Not sure how expansive and attacking you can be with crap attacking players, like.

This is awful, like. Massive fan of Jimmy Nail and his fairly brief music career but I have no appreciation for that one whatsoever.

Crazy. For any other PL manager making Motherwell looking ordinary would be some sort of damning indictment on the performance.

On the other hand Shola had the likes of Bobby, Keegan, Shearer, Bellamy and Kluivert to learn from, and still turned out utter garbage. Think the issue goes a little deeper than that.

At times we made Motherwell look ordinary? That is actually the best Pardew quote ever. Absolutely unbeatable.

Alright Pards Trust me have a look at my previous threads and I hate Pardew with a vengeance - just stating a fact the fringe players are not good enough They are criminally shit - and have been for a long time - in fairness.
