good to read some sense on here IMO Carrick is the best passer of the ball England have (since Scholes retired), and should make every single starting line-up

let's see if SSR will bite

fking cult hero and i believe...in this context.....Habib Beye will kick your ASS is far more powerful than ARSE just my two penneth

some serious thought provoking stuff there! cheers for that

Good enough to start for the european champions though. The stick Brown gets never ceases to amaze me. Same with Rooney, both are great players for the best team around, yet apparently are s*** for England...think there might be a reason for that. Then again, paradoxically I think Gerrard and Terry never really perform for England cause they're actually no way near as good as people think. Biased I know, but I still think their comparitive club form backs me up. A final word on England's best players being crap. People whinge and whinge and whinge about Lampard and Gerrard together in a midfield. How is it always Lampard's fault? Why is it he, who is clearly not a centre mid and doesnt pretened to be, who should suffer to accomodate the most headless of all chickens? If England want to make any progress Saint Steven should be dropped until he learns how to actually play in midfield, which will be never I'd guess. Lampard should be allowed to play in his inimitable Lampardy way, with a pair of midfielders behind him who know how to defend. I've noticed this place brings out the rants in me, I'm not sure why. Sorry like....but that's spot the fuck on!! IMO Lampard is the better of the two at what they do best. Gerard never looks interested

are you just gonna keep posting that? it's in Norweigen Haha, Alanzinho? I don't think so, Harry. (jeg er norsk forresten, og Stabæk fan). If we are to sign anyone from Stabæk it would def. be Annan. Other than that Skjelbred @ Rosenborg is a good prospect. However, he recently sign a new deal with Rosenborg. NEXT! Something his agent has said would not put off interest from the interested clubs. As much as I'd like to see him in black and white though, I seriously doubt we're in for him anymore, if we ever were. That's true. A new deal for him has pushed his asking price up further. That being said, he's has some aweful injuries, that has put him out for long periods. He showes glimpse of his talents, followed by inconsistency. He's far from as inconsistent as Braathen (prev. Bolton) though. If Newcastle look to Norway, Tarik Elyounoussi would be great. However, he's moved to a French(?) side during the summer. I'd still say Annan at Stabæk, and just keep an eye at Skjeldbred. But I feel we should look at better players at the moment. dude!!! what's up with that sig like?

couldn't have happened to a bigger wanker cunt

probably summoned him up in a sceance

We're probably safe for a week or so, he'll not want to come on here while were doing OK and have to eat humble pie. are you saying that we're gonna lose next week?? fucking doom merchant

Arise Sir Conjunctivitis top post

good news this kid is talented, but not talented enough. hope they'll appreciate his honest game over there good luck Shola now for his replacement

exactly what i think too! he provided what was a bottle-neck in their attack. they only managed to get somewhere when they managed to get past him

nice stat!! im actually quite interested, where did u find it?

He's balls. i disagree there.....nuthin but net!!

It's a futile argument tbh. We can go on about who was missing from the Man U line-up all day, and still can't say for certain we wouldn't have got the same result (or better even) had the obvious players been on the pitch. You can only play what's in front of you, and the game was between NUFC and Man Utd, two football clubs. Who was on the pitch is irrelevant, and history books will say that the game ended 1-1, with the two sides sharing the points.

Ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuud Err we've failed in our bid according to the sunday sun! the sunday sun and the monday moon can both suck my cock ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuud is coming

Ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuud

There was one of the papers that did an interactive thing like that of the game, telling you running distances, speed, where the playw as focussed etc. It was either the telegraph or the Guardian but Ic an't findit now. Ok. Cheers. I will try to make a new serch and see if i can find anything. Send me the link if you find it and I will do likewise. i'll show you mine if you show me yours

don't even f***ing start What the hell's your problem?! It's a forum so i will "f***ing start" to discuss issues/topics/points of interest at my leisure. I'm not getting involved in an internet argument with you as that's just lameo. If you have an actual constructive view that engages with the facts then please respond. If not, read the post and move on. The fact is, out of Keegan's very own mouth, he said Wise and Jimenez told him they'd got Jonas in, and so he then went to look him up. Also, Keegan hadn't seen much of Coloccini before he came here by the sounds of it. Watch the post-match interview on the bbc website in the manu-toon report. Skip forward to 2minutes and 7 seconds and listen on from there. mate...i dont want to get into any arguments. i saw the interview, and obviously noticed that part. i just responded to your "dont want to stir up trouble" comment at the beginning of your post. you obviously know this discussion is going to stir up trouble, so to speak, on the board, and we will get the usual paranoid brigade crawling out from under their rocks to undermine yesterday's result, and keegan, and the board etc..etc... i heard the comment, and hoped everyone would just ignore it

correct. it was under instructions from KK, to get Zoggy on the ball to drive us forward. we kept possession quite well in that spell, and it was that spell that took the sting out of the game. i remember an instance when Guthrie wriggled away from 2 Man U players on the touch line and sent Zoggy through with a sublime outside of the foot pass

don't even fucking start

correct glad you came to your senses

gonads?

great read thedude
