ridiculous says it all, to be a good defender you have to be running around like Steven Taylor on ecstacy or flying in with challanges left, right and centre Ferdinand doesn't have to do this because he's one step ahead of the attacker, Ferguson's no mug, there's a reason he paid £30m for him aye and shevchenko was bought for that price... kind of negates the whole "hes expensive therefore he's good" arguement

how was he? didn't catch the barnsely match myself and i'm growing rather impatient.. He had a quiet game and was quite obviously nervous at the beginning. But i was definitely encouraged by what i saw; he definitely seems to have quality. There wasn't an awful lot to do in the way of defensive work, and Caçapa ruled the show when there was, but in the second half going forward he linked well with N'Zogbia - and i remember in-particular this superb little through ball over the defense. Looking forward to seeing more of him. hmm.. thanks.. hope the lad fills in at left-back against derby; i can see zoggy ripping them apart if he was in midfield.

injured again... its getting harder and harder to defend the guy ffs

how was he? didn't catch the barnsely match myself and i'm growing rather impatient..

must win game definitely... btw is anyone else getting sick of never seeing enrique play? oh and i hope beye gets a game at rightback aswell.

Rio is mega overrated... hes just average

I'd say it's easier to push someone over when they're kneeling down, tbh. Try it next time you're in church. simple physics really: if the centre of gravity is lower in an object it is harder to topple it than one in which the centre of gravity is higher.. mass being equal of course

friend of mine saw Roy keane in TKmaxx

score a brace- hope so come back to sjp with a leg brace- fucking hope not

don't want to be a downer but i don't really see us winning this one..

crumpy's just trying to garner some attention... taylors a good young player who looked sublime when compared to a previously shite defence.. gotta keep the lad- will turn out to be a great player and our future captain.

ooops yeah you made the foreign player one, not this one.... aah yeah sorry; thought you were calling your own thread pointless there.. i think i've been in front of the computer too long..

didn't you make the thread?

and yet people complain when players aren't "proud to wear the shirt" ... surprised though, i've always been a big england fan, and i didn't know that so many people don't care.

oh RRRrrrrreeeeaaaalllllyyyy.... ....lots of critisims and no suggestions?? Care to venture a suggestion, rather than piss on other people's?? not "pissing on other peoples' suggestions.. just giving my view on each player mentioned.. denying me my right to criticise means that you're pissing on my opinions. So yeah, rrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeaally

Rosicky looks in fine form; the kind of player we need really

you're saying thats a good thing? can't really see how its a bad thing

love the way richards is overrated.... its unbelievable

miserable bugger They'll never do fuck all with their current manager either. England's equivalent of the Roeder appointment. i'll agree with that

miserable bugger

still undecided about torres.. the derby game he did ver well, but i dont see 20 goals in him.. tbh hes playing for a new craetive-force of a team so he gets enough chances

tbh it's pretty shocking how many people don't give a toss about england. no wonder the players are so demoralised. its ok choosing newcastle over england but to say that you don't care about the national side is treason... perhaps not that far , but you get what i mean

passionate about england even if i do think the manager is a twat and the players are overrated. i love the world cup atmosphere though- its brilliant, the 'Go england!' signs in shop windows (some of them) and its the only time my mates (be they everton fans, boro fans..) n i actually support the same side. that said i desperately want newcastle to do well.. so i chose both.

That must be a He-She i don't believe the story... first of all why would you pay for what must be the most hideous hooker ever, when he could easily get a girl 10 times better looking in any nightclub? why would you invite your friends round to screw said hoooker? (i wouldn't want anyone to know i was screwing a whore, let alone invite more penis's around ffs) and isn't cristiano gay.. has to be? remember Hugh Grant and Divine Brown? Ugly as a box full of smacked arses, but the floppy-haired fool still got her to put his private area in her mouth. ... so he these people like them ugly.. the dirty bastards... must admit before seeing her pic, when i heard she was brazillian my mind wandered .. only to be be slapped in the face with a pic of someone who looks like giselle bunchen.....................'s retarded sister.

owen will only stay if hes playing crap... if he becomes a prolific figure again, someone'll swoop in; he won't be here in 3 seasons.. the nzogbia deal is excellent; forgot how good he was, last season did nothing for his development..
