Ronaldo

It's daft Stan. Trying to decipher it really isn't worth the headache.

Good for him. I've got a lot of time for de Jong. He could do a similar job for us that Viduka did in 2008, if he could stay fit. As with Viduka, that's an absurd expectation, unfortunately.

I was. I should've quoted.

He's much better than what we have, obviously. I don't think anyone's disputing that.

A hell of a lot easier to build a Benitez side around a striker with mobility, mind. Chalk and cheese, really.

Everton are everything we should be as a club, minus the fans.

I know I've said this before but it's fucking unbelievable that's how much a decent Championship defender costs. The market in this country has gone insane.

She obviously hates us but it isn't a bad article.

I think the problem is, we've tended to buy players almost exclusively to fill obvious gaps in the first Xl since Ashley bought the club. Squad players have tended to be shit punts that haven't worked out. I have faith in Rafa to bring in decent backup players but even he gets it completely wrong sometimes. Lazaar, Sels etc.

I'm guessing not. Why?

Newcastle - Sunderland isn't a real derby, either.

Give me a break. All things considered it should be easier than ever buying players from the continent

Repugnant.

When did Forster become so overrated?

It's obvious there's a Rafa versus Charnley/Ashley dynamic in play, like. Has been since January.

What's the scout story got to do with it?

You're talking about the club that made a 'derisory' offer for James fucking Perch, to be fair.

Yeah, that's a strange comparison to say the least.

I like Shelvey, but come on, he defensive work is utter shit. It always has been. Cabaye gave us a lot more in that regard.

Neesy has sexual status?

apparently it is only common sense that you should though. Despite it serving no useful purpose;obviously. Wtf, knock yourself out Skel. Christ.

You mean like hiring Kinnear twice, or spending nothing for 3 windows after avoiding relegation by the skin of a Swansea win away to Wigan?

Not sure they need censorship when the questions posed usually focus on stuff like the hand cream in the men's toilets.

Perhaps because it correlates with common sense?

We know this won't end well, like. Ashley/Charnley tell one fib too many and he walks. Short of a takeover that's literally the only realistic scenario.
