Ronaldo

I know it's trendy North London and all that but I'm quite surprised so many had the foresight to bring sunglasses in November, like.

That's good. I imagined that being said in a Belfast accent by a short man in a 1998 Argentina tracksuit.

One of the few out there that would frighten Ron, holy shit. Not sure I'd quite be frightened, bruv, but I certainly wouldn't be giving him any free shots. BOOM.

I think Friedel was a tad indecisive, mind. Obviously every keeper has his own starting position.

I'm guessing a hell of a lot of people aren't going to spot the error there.

:lol:

Imagine that tapping you on the shoulder and asking you outside. Fucking hell.

Or we could just keep Santon in his best position and let Haidara earn his chance. And play thin air at right back. Good choice. I'd play Anita there. Problem?

Or we could just keep Santon in his best position and let Haidara earn his chance.

Yeah he is, he's totally on a different level intelligence wise to Mbiwa, that's for sure. As I've said on here before, he's a perfect example of an CB who simply knows how to compensate for his lack of athleticism.

Nah, they're not an excellent midfield partnership at all. Excellent midfield partnerships control games, and we just don't, like almost literally ever.

Quite similar actually, our lot are nowhere near as intelligent as the Arsenal duo though. Mapou is. Don't be so stupid, man.

Babysat by whom? He's always been the boss alongside whoever he's played with. Don't really rate Williamson but he's always been the leader, from his very first game against Palace when he was technically on loan. Didn't we sign him out-right? Yeah, but he was on loan for that one game.

They suit him, he can just hack the ball away again and again and it's job done. It's when he's expected to contribute in a footballing sense that he's exposed for what he is.

You don't impose such limits when they imply that Shola Ameobi is certain to start games.

What's the alternative, once again let our best player sod off to another club so we you can spent a full season defending the fact we look like going down?

People keep saying this and yet the few times he's played there he looks awkward. I think left back is simply his strongest position. Yeah, there was a game near the end of last season and his instinct was still to cut inside even though it was on to his left-foot. Hard to judge anyone on last seasons shit though Do you do it on purpose Skirge? He's a fucking LB, man. Jesus.

He has to start against Norwich and WBA. Has to.

I don't think it's bizarre. Liverpool, Spurs, Chelsea, Mackems away. If he doesn't do OK in these games he's a total lost cause.

Hatem's obviously a hundred times the player Shola is, but he offers virtually nothing in that position too.

Babysat by whom? He's always been the boss alongside whoever he's played with. Don't really rate Williamson but he's always been the leader, from his very first game against Palace when he was technically on loan.

Don't bite, guys.

Also AVB is a bit like Mourinho in that he is quite conservative and not very adventurous. Parky making stuff up based on false logic as per usual.

Hmmm. There was a 5-10 minute spell leading up to the goal where, incredibly, it actually looked like we were trying to win away from home. Apart from that we contained, and did it pretty well.
