  1. As Dave said, a draw was a good result with that performance.
  2. Shola's arse probably would have put it out for a goal kick. Not joking. Throw in, easily.
  3. In addition to when? Wednesday 4th January 2012. 2 occasions then, how fun.
  4. I hope we knock down an estate to build a statue of him.
  5. I absolutely loved José too and couldn't have rated him much higher than I did but I reckon Santon will become much better than he was for us. Boy I certainly hope so, but at the moment I just can't see it I'm afraid. To me he looks fairly solid defensively, although not the man mountain that Enrique could be, and he has a penchant for going forward, which unfortunately more often than not does not result in a shot or creating a chance for his team mates. As I've said before, he's solid and has age on his side, but he certainly doesn't look to me like some world class full back in the making, and currently is not at the level that Enrique was at when he played for us at his best. What am I missing that everybody else is seeing? He's 21 and far better than Jose was at that age. he is....and he isn't. enrique was the far better defender but those days when people would say "i just want defenders to defend" are gone and now full backs have to be decent on the ball, jose was but he never had the eye to get forward or the touch inside (the red zone) that santon has. it's too early to say hes better....but he could well be. I liked Jose from the day I first saw him play, but I have genuine confidence in Santon to perform well in every game. That wasn't the case with Jose till he was 23+.

  7. That's because Taylor doesn't have the turning circle of an aircraft carrier. Clearly.
  8. That's why Taylor should play. Poor going backwards against quick strikers but a million times better than Willo.
  9. Not entirely surprised that people are underrating Rooney this much, like. The guy's a phenomenal footballer, whatever you think of him.
  10. Sick of reading this rubbish. Using a player who's improving constantly to have a go at Pardew, man.
  11. Oh, and Santon's going to be far better than Enrique on his best day.
