Ronaldo

Yeah. I see him becoming a box-to-box type in time. Something we badly need, too.

Given that he's one of our best wide players, there's no way he should be going anywhere.

Especially in big games like Sunday's? We play Man U twice a season, mate. I'm not saying he shouldn't play when we need to contain.

Anita, Cabaye and Tiote are all far better players. Don't see where he fits in a 4-3-3.

Taylor doesn't need to be labeled. It's obvious he's injury prone.

Don't see the difference, he's prone to injury. It's most likely an issue with certain tissues being unable to properly support his body weight.

Well, that and the fact he's missed most of each of the last 3 seasons, like.

He'll be retired before Kieron Dyer.

Just assuming that he's either retired by then or in the stands on crutches?

Is it 2 in over 20 years?

I'd be a lot more comfortable with Forster playing rather than Timber. To be fair, Forster showed a lot of early promise but he's every bit as deserving of that nickname as Harper is.

Look at the rubbish we've played across the back 4 since 2005, man. Hughes would have started virtually every game.

Just jesting, dude. I know you're not usually one for the games.

He'd be brilliant for Leon Best, that's for sure.

i don't think any keeper would save that more than 2 times out of ten nevermind Krul saving it 10 times out of 10, it was a glancing downward header from about 5 yards. it was virtually in the back of the net before the keeper knew anything about it! Krul gets to that with his better reactions, agility and wingspan. No doubt about it. Harper almost got to it, and those are his weak points.

Can you imagine how much better of we'd be if we'd had those 220 games, man? Clueless fucking idiot Souness is.

Yorkie's going to a game? The fuck's going on here?

Better.

Krul's far more assertive, thought. Harper doesn't really have the height or agility to dominate his box, but his handling and judgement are still very good.

Not really a criticism of Harper so much, but Krul saves Reading's second 10 times out of 10.

Would have made Pardewball function more effectively. Cop-out tbh. The players are still there for this side to work without being so direct. Fine. But you need a Plan A and B and that's what Carroll would've given us.

Tavernier looked abysmal and good on Tiote for telling him to buck his ideas up.

That comment at the bottom of the Robert article, man.

You think everyone bar us and Stoke are decent.
