Ronaldo

I bet he celebrated the first.

No, you can't. But Ian sticks his head in the sand when it comes to stuff like this.

Same, I also think we need both Cabaye and Tiote in fairly deep positions, so I don't think anything other than Ba/HBA as a front 2 can really work. That's the point, though. It did.

Or looks for ways we can be more creative so it's not only him getting the goals? Who else will be doing it? Not Hatem, that's for sure, or Jonas, or Obertan, or either of the two in the centre. Take away Ba's contribution and we're in big trouble. Best, Ba and HBA should all be in the team.

If half of your goals are coming from one player, it's usually a good idea to play to his strengths.

Nice theory. We've scored 18 goals in the league and almost half of them have come from one player.

He was talking about playing for team GB in the olympics.

"Just a shit Man United" ffs. Dickheads.

I was certainly right when Mick wanted Nile Ranger to start instead.

"They call me Mr Glass."

It's not about him, though. It's ultimately about how we can get goals out of the strikers.

Quite clearly. We all know he's very good and a far more accomplished player than Leon Best.

Christ man, nobody is guaranteeing he's going to fire us into the Champions League with an endless string of hattricks. We're just excited to see a genuinely world-class player in our team again. There's another.

Lots of people setting themselves up for a huge fall with this lad. Even if he plays well he'll never fulfill some of the superlatives thrown at him in this thread. It's embarrassing.

Who mentioned innovation? He mentioned innovate which means to start something new, that could apply in the short term. Give over. That's not applicable here nor what he implied.

Everyone agrees he should start.

A sound way of describing Messi perhaps.

That's basically what's happened.

I understand the adoration for Nobby because I loved him too.

The definition of innovation doesn't include the words 'very few'. He's a great talent and unique within our squad. To call him an innovator is ludicrous.

See.

Hang on, because Ben Arfa can do thing that other toon players can't he's an f***ing innovator? Look the word up, man.

In the time they were both at the club, Robert scored more goals, got more assists and was a key component in us 'defending from the front' along with the likes of Bellamy and Dyer through demonstrating terrific pace on the counter-attack. Anyone who thinks Solano's contribution outweighed Robert's at this time simple wasn't going to the games.

Why haven't you included the stats from the first half of 03/04? Oh, right, that's why. Nice try.

That's got to be the most pointless post I've seen on here for a long time.
