Ronaldo

We'd have won this tie by now if we had some width.

I think we all know that.

Mentalist.

Not a chance. He was very hit and miss last season.

They look more like brothers.

Brilliant pundit, easily the best out there.

To be fair, Redknapp himself was over the hill at 24.

Southampton's a must win game.

Ancelotti had a pretty workmanlike side at Chelsea scoring more goals in one season than any team in the history of the PL. His teams always play good football.

He's had that before, but his club at the time (Milan) said no.

Captain Cabaye.

Urrgh. Jonas wins again.

Hatem's travelled?

Source? The source is in my quote!?... (Olivier) Bernard... He's on Total Sport now... Makes sense. He'll know N'Zogbia from the French U-21 setup. Perhaps before that even, given that they're only 3 days apart in age.

Oh good, the thread goes squarely to shit again after an interesting post.

Mole's on a roll.

Yeah, apart from his shooting he's been flawless.

The last 2 post echo my sentiments perfectly.

In 10 years he will. What an utterly meaningless comment. I'm assuming he means once Bale has lost that yard of pace whereas Wilshere will still be able to dictate games then he will be better. In other words Bale will be the better player basically all of his career. Yep.

In 10 years he will.

It's difficult to believe there's a debate about this. Everything basically suggests Pardew played it perfectly.

Not much about the debate is long term mind, long term Tiote might get back to his best. We still don't know what his best is. There's a lot suggesting that his brilliant first season was the result of us being a newly promoted side and up against it every week with an extremely attack-minded player next to him. And with Alan Smith as his deputy.

His comments since suggest he retrospectively agrees with the decision to delay his comeback.

None of that supports what you're saying. It doesn't contradict it either, but far more evidence points the other way.

Indeed.
