That kind of implies he's the best in the world. Hadaway, it doesn't mean anything other than he's impressed me more than anyone I've seen given his age. Just my opinion remember. The actual Ronaldo was far superior at his age. Possibly better, but FAR superior??? The fact that folk are even having to say possibly is quite frankly a joke. I'd post a video of Ronaldo's one season at Barcelona during the same age if I could but I'd get banned. People were actually comparing his talents to Pele, it's amazing how short sighted fans are in today's game that the both of them are even mentioned in the same breath. Culminated with the fact it was Ronaldo's first season in one of the big leagues whereas these performances now buy Cristiano are culminated of 4 years worth of step-overs, no end product etc. Can't believe I've actually lowered myself to be drawn into this argument. Well we arent talking about what he was like in the previous seasons we are talking about what he is like now, and he has been outstanding this season. And why cant people mention players of today in the same breath as players from 20-30 years ago, the only difference is that the players from 20-30 years ago have had 20-30 years worth of people building them up. And yes, Ronaldo at Barcelona was amazing but I don't think you can say that any player is far superior to Christiano Ronaldo and this moment in time because he is so effective at what he does.

He is absolutely fantastic, kinda reluctant to say he is the best in the world but i think he is! hes just simply brilliant!

funny as fuck!

Id rather Man Utd win of all the teams left

Ronaldo is amazing!

I think we should keep him! He may have been inconsistent since his return but the whole team hasnt been performing. When hes been up front the service hasnt been particularly great so hes going to play inconsistently.

I dont reckon he would put up with crap from players, he gives me the impression hes a kinda nice guy until you piss him off. Saw him doing press-ups in the middle of Julies once to impress some lasses. That's the sort of bloke I want managing NUFC. stop mid trainin to go and hound some garls!

to be honest both teams looked a little jaded - dont agree with the sat/mon situation doesnt do much for the fans to watch never mind the players.... its fans money at the end of the day I find it a bit strange that players whine about playin 2 games in 3 days, they are fit as f*** and get paid for it. It shouldnt affect them that much. my team has a back log of games so Iv had to play Sat, Yesterday, Today and tomorrow, and I dont feel that bad! i agree they are fit but as a consequence you expect fast flowing high paced football doesnt matter how fit you are you'll be jaded in the prem after 2 games in 3 days unlike pub teams jogging around drinking lager at half time ;-) Mate, I resent that comment, I workin my arse off in a game and our manager beasts us in trainin! i actually play county football so its a step up from local football but still! lol sorry didn't mean to offend..... mind you if youre doing 3 in 3 thats some effort as for your manager beasting you... errrrr ;-) thats actually quite a sick thought, my manager is probably the fattest fucker I know! it is hard doin that many games, its hard enough just playin sat and sun for me most of the time and consider myself quite fit. I cant imagine im anything on prem players for fitness though so I just would really have thought theyd be able to handle 2 games in 3 days better than they make out.

Ball watching resulting in the scramble when Solano blocked and headed over. 100% Agreed. A class LB and CB should surely top our most wanted list this summer. I agree we should replace him hes not good enough but I dont think he had a bad game today.

Well, he turned up... He didnt do anything wrong today! He did mate. He did better than usual but he gave the ball away a lot (as did others mind) and he was at fault for their best chance. Sorry but I cant recall him giving the ball away lots, and he actually made a couple of decent important interceptions!

Given 6 (Harper 6) Solano 8 Carr 7 Taylor 8 Onyewu 6 Milner 7 Duff 6 Butt 8.5 Emre 7 Dyer 6 (N'Zogbia 4) Martins 6

Well, he turned up... He didnt do anything wrong today!

Can someone remind me how Carr nearly cost us the game?

I think Taylor needs an intelligent defender beside him myself. Taylor held it together today at times. He did. Gooch has done nothing, apart from his throws, to suggest he is even as good as Bramble. Gooch's decision making was a bit suspect at times, didnt think he played shockingly bad though. Showed good intelligence in the RB position to turn the defender and pass up the line.

saw that. missed the milner cross shot. f*** nows what I was doing at the time thinkin of things to say to piss people off? it comes naturally. no thought needed tbh fair do's!

Butt and Emre both did pretty decent jobs, just could have done with Emre pushing on a bit, his passing was fine nonetheless. Nzogbia was shit when he came on. First time Iv seen Gooch's throw, quite impressive!

Carr worst player??? talkin pure bollocks mate

Bolton: Slick intricate passing football a joy to watch, nice guy Diouf plays for them!

I wouldnt particularly like Coleman or Strachan

if you dont like new threads appearing then just out of interest why do you read a forum? Hopefully you can see the difference between one new thread and dozens of repeat threads, all of which contain the same ridiculous speculation concerning things that will never, ever happen. Ok fair enough but to be honest most of what is discussed on here isnt really likely to happen anyway, even the sensible stuff isnt likely to happen because we are newcastle after all!
