Ronaldo

Aye, clap them off, good result. Wankers.

It's extremely hard in that situation tbf. I think whoever was trying to cover Dzeko had to do a better job blocking that low cross. Negredo is attacking the ball, Mapou isn't. Be quiet, man, it's awful defending.

Cisse.

You get some shite and extremely short term bragging rights for graft/uni the morra? Yay! Fuck that.

How can I physically want us to win this game?

He's been too pro-Pardew. By far the best covering us, though, Farrington's Twitter outburst notwithstanding.

Was just the QF, like.

Who? When?

Pardew did exactly this. He didn't though. We were 11th or 12th when he got the job.

Not sure what you mean here? Comparing Pards to either of those two is laughable. Kenny did an OK job overall. Deserves a lot of credit for us finishing 2nd. Souness spent £55m taking us from 5th to 16th. He ruined us, as he ruined Liverpool.

Shearer was twice the footballer this cunt ever was.

Ah, those super lucky strikes from 20 yards. We should just not bother closing down players outside the box in the future.

Hang on, as much as I hate this fraud there's not a chance he even touches the damage Souness did. Kenny shouldn't even be compared to Pardew either, but for the opposite reason.

The first part of that sentence is right. Nah, great footballers have enough about them to survive a decline in pace. Like Ronaldo did.

He failed to start and score in a PL fixture in the last 4 and a half years of his career, including 3 years at Man U. Doesn't suggest too much intelligence to me. He was never a great footballer.

Make me believe this is sarcasm.

If it doesn't affect the team I don't see the fucking point.

Why wouldn't he just get a legit licence? I passed my test 7 years ago at the absolute height of my drinking issues and my girlfriend passed hers without being able to drive, at all. It's not difficult.

That's absurd.

I've been drinking for 29 hours. I thought this thread was about Pardew for some reason. Apologies, especially to Kanji. Yeah, Shearer and Keegan hate the bloke.

A big, black holding midfielder that can't defend. That's a good one. Proof if it was needed that Happy Face doesn't actually pay much attention to the games.

Shearer.

Unfortunately mate Shearer thinks he's doing a perfectly good job.

He was there days after we got rid of Hughton if memory serves. Nobody gives a fuck, man. The Milburn part where he sits is full of the worst of the worst in cowards, and folk who simply couldn't give two shits that we lost to Sunderland again. I'm not being funny but are you expecting anything beyond chanting and abuse? Fair enough if not, and I'd be at that if I was anywhere near him, but there seems to be an underlying tone on here that someone should go out of their way to chin him. It's not going to happen so let's stop kidding ourselves that it will. I was just pointing out that he has no need for bodyguards, handy or not.
