He'll go elsewhere. Racist greasy-dicked Tom Daley impersonator aside; he is a cut above.

Duncan Goodhew's lovechild.

We have better players yet play the same way and flatter to decieve. Simple as that really.

Exactly. does us no favours.

The only contibutions he makes are when you are on the back foot. It's helpful now and then but overall not good enough for a side that screams for pass and move.

How muh of that comes from going down to 10 men too?

'philosophy' Pardew out. Plato in.

They have two threats in Suare and Sterling as far as I could see and the rest just make up the numbers.

They have suarez and sterling and then the rest are distinctly average imo. I felt we defended brilliantly for the most part and for all their bluster they lacked that killer instinct. Really ccould have done with alll three points mind, however unrealistic/hopeful.

80th minute at 3 all. Zeus and Poseidon, the brothers of destruction raise from the bench as a bell tolls. Sammy gets a flick on from a divine 6 million dollar man salmon leap from Shola and scores in the 86th with a 30 yard backheel. 4-3...Believe.

dunno what the fuss is about not allowing recordings; the rugby has the ref mic'd up all the time.

I'd resent Reina for losing his bottle in an important league game tbh.

Can't say I've seen enough of Santon at RB to pass judgement tbh. Has he even played there that many times?

Well each game will bring its own merits in terms of decisions to be made; I'm not going to question the incident named above because you are probably right. In that instance. I'm just going along with the opinion that is held that as a goalkeeper its always better to get yourself in a position where you're most likely to stop a shot whilst retaining posession and not falling foul of the second ball. Kind of like when keepers do two hand punches when they could try to just hold it. That's like your example but in reverse.

You are more likely to hold onto something with your hands than your feet. Not sure how you can get wound up about that like.

Would have him back, all my other reservations aside. Would add to the pass and move of the squad and I never saw many wingers get 100% the better of him. Like someone said though, this is highly unlikely and probably a good thing stability wise.

Interrupt-gate in full swing/meltdown there like. Thick as a bull's dick that Wireside gonk.

'Goalkeeping? I can do dat. Giz a job, go on giz a job...'

Aye but compare where they finished in those seasons compared to last year/ whee they are now. It's not a good indicator thinking positively. However, I'm a staunch pessimist and expect them to fully have our pants down by half time.

I'm not convinced we're seeing him change because he's lost a yard or whatever. He looks completely different to the kind of player he ever was. He showed in a fleeting glimpse on Sunday that the pace was still there in some capacity. I find it tremendously odd. He may well have peaked in the last couple of seasons or it may be down to coaching. Just can't put a finger on it; it's weird.

Even though hes a class above Ben Arfa? Sounds like the penny is dropping for a lot of them regarding O'Neill though tbh

SSN news ticker looks crackers in that game

Be something innocent like 'Juan since you're here, I'm dating a lady from Madrid and was wondering, since you get loads of women; you. Spanish Twat?'
