Ronaldo

Or perhaps he'd get the best out of him and utilise him correctly like his proven track record of doing so with Newcastle players. He certainly wouldn't have deployed him so defensively like Pardew has this season that's for sure. So telling Hatem to concentrate on attacking would turn him into the best player in the league? Come on, man.

For goodness sake. Embarrassing.

Doing us proud as usual.

Aye, madness. Ba and Lukaku could be...well.... There's not a striker out there that would fulfil his potential in a partnership with Ba.

He'd tell him to just go out and express himself, bud. Hatem would then magically develop fantastic pace and start scoring 25 a season. He'd double his career tally in the first season alone. Gotta love KK and his long magic wand.

In this league he 100% isn't. Out wide he'll be invisible far too long and cause problems for the full-back behind him. Through the middle it's a much better use of his strengths in addition to somewhat negating his weaknesses.

To be fair to TT, I think he's been personally affected by something alcohol-related and it must be bloody tough seeing all this sympathy towards someone who pisses away chance after chance and help upon help.

I'm convinced you weren't around for Keegan's side after reading that. Cabaye doesn't come close to how effective Rob Lee was for Keegan, nor does Ben Arfa match Robert's effectiveness for Bobby. And Perch better than Steve Watson as a utility man? I admire the optimism but do me a favour. Revisionist tripe.

2 players to push the likes of Jonas and Shola out of the picture completely and it's the top one. Right now I'd say top 6.

I think he'd be in the squad, certainly.

Bellamy was our best player and a top scorer, and he was victimised. It's hardly the same. I'm talking about under Bobby, not under Souness. Didn't happen.

With a narrow midfield it most certainly is.

Why?

That game against Charlton away when Bellamy had scored our goal and looked the best player on the pitch by a mile and Souness subbed him while Shearer was trotting about in the middle of an asthma attack. That cunt making his point was so much more important than the 2 points pissed away.

Bellamy was our best player and a top scorer, and he was victimised. It's hardly the same.

Can't remember the exact dates but manure were all over dyer and jenas and Roma for Bellamy...£20m a piece. Yeah, that was a couple of years earlier.

All I've said is that Colo needs to be gradually phased out when we're safe, and that Taylor shouldn't be dropped.

I don't think he is far better than that. He's a destroyer, and always will be.

He wasn't f***ing dogshit, dogshit is Williamson hoofing it all day long. I'd take Willo's hoofs over Krul's, like.

Agree with Madlad.

Anita's made out to be something he's not on here. Should've been Tiote starting anyway.

Barry's legitimately been Soton's best player today.

You can't blame him too much for the goals. The first one is on Perch, and the second was a mix up. It happens. He made stupid errors for both goals, it's as simple as that. Physically he's not what he was and we're suffering.

I've been a big Colo supporter and Taylor critic in the past but Taylor's more worthy of the shirt these days. Be very stupid to drop him.

Mancini must actually have something missing.
