Yeah, too many British managers ruining their careers by going overseas. Getting out of hand.

Agree.

Really, man?

There's not a chance, man. Hodgson's one thing, Pardew's quite another. He headbutted a player FFS, plus his other misdemeanours, plus he's shit.

I stand by my opinion he'll never be offered the England job.

It's a symptom of our xenophobic press. One of the English good guys, talented but underrated and making a real good go of it. Makes me sick like, as much as I hated Redknapp at least he achieved a few things and played decent football. This cunt's got nowt.

Mannnnnn, hopefully he gets royally mocked when it all unravels. If it's not this season it'll definitely be next, his riding on the crest of absolute bullshit never lasts more than a year and half.

He's fucking wank generally, look at how many goals we normally concede when he's in goal man. Haters FFS, piss off.

That's probably streets ahead of his record for us tbf

Didn't he score more than 2 goals in a game less than 10 times over 4 seasons for us?

What!

I thought he was terrible, and I quite like him

What the fuck's going on with Thauvin man, can't even control a ball. At least he drew a few fouls but his confidence looks shot. Only saw the second half but looked dreadful performance-wise. As others have said we needed a win though, hopefully we can get some points the next couple of games.

"trust me, oi wish oid seen dat kinda application from im when oi woz iz gaffer" (Hearty laughs. Ian Wright heard saying "fackin forrins" under his breath, then they move on to talking about Rooney again).

KK song, no? It was. Left a very sour taste after all Keegan had done for him. Some of his other comments about the region haven't been great either. Regardless, wish him all the best. Yeah, there was no need for that from Cole, we put him on the map and made him a highly sort after player. A little gratitude wouldn't have went a miss. He's that kind of bloke though I reckon having watched the recent documentary. Somehow it never seems nasty but he's just very single-minded and adamant he'll do things his own way. I'm sure he'd say he regretted that moment if asked though.

Do you and Souness often listen to podcasts together? Nah tbh I didn't know that either.

Yep, this. Why do you want forwards and wingers to be running chasing balls and tracking back all the time? Sure, sometimes you have to get back but in general they should save their energy for running towards the opposition goal, not running away from it. In a team where generally Cisse was the only player who didn't have to defend much, I think we could have afforded at least one more attacking outlet. How people can regard Pardew being a horrible negative cunt and Ben Arfa losing his place in the side and ultimately at the club as mutually exclusive concepts is beyond me.

Get well soon. My first NUFC hero too, along with Beardsley.

That's a great quote tbf.

Someone get KI in here, he has a gift for settling an argument.

I think hard work should be the minimum expected from any player. Talented or not, give it your all. And it's the reason Ben Arfa will never make it as a top player. Too often any criticism of him is met with a wall of nonsense about Gouffran etc. Such rubbish. Lack of work rate was never his problem at NUFC. He went months where he barely figured. Was clearly deemed a luxury player by the clueless gobshite we all know is a clueless gobshite.

Whatever Dave, you lazy cunt.

Did he ever run less than the goalkeeper for us? Otherwise you're basing your opinion on the circus Bruce presided over.
