QuoteAlso if the Premier League continues in the vain it has been then Ronaldo won't even be f**king PFA player of the year Fabregas will..

Doubtful.  Fabregas had a brilliant start to the season and has been very good since, but Ronaldo has been consistently better than him.  Cesc's star has not been shining as brightly recently.  Plus he is a b*llbag, the incident against Ashley Cole and then his shot in the face antics against Arteta proved that again!

A compelling argument.......

The mind boggles as to why Sky are pumping money into the Irish League, you cant polish a turd. Is it all part of the peace dividend?

The N95 battery life is brutal, but the N95 8gig (Black version) is grand.  Have had it about a month and no problems to date.  It really is the 'dogs balls'!!!

The one im getting is "N95 + 8GB memory card", i take it this isnt the latest one,the black one is i think. Whats the difference? Forgive the ignorance........

Its easy to say Ronaldo doesn't do it in big games but if you look at his performances for Portugal in major tournaments you can see that is not necessarily the truth. He has been superb for them every time I see him. In big Euro ties and top 4 prem games opposition team specifically focus on stopping Ronaldo so often he looks like he's not doing the business at crucial times. There might be some truth in it but he is some player at the end of the day. He can be kept out of a game for almost all of it and still pop in a goal or two and set one up like against Arsenal the night of the "I'll see you out there" row.

The other two are better than him though. Kaka is at the peak of his powers. He is a fantastic player and for me the worlds best at present. Messi will take that title from him shortly. He is incredibly talented and should go on to be the standout player in the world for a while to come.

Hasn't Ronaldinho's star fallen very quickly.

Agree with that Seanie, i saw a stat about Ronaldinho the other day, everyone is saying he is past it but i think he has scored 45 goals in last 73 La Liga appearances, dont think he is finished just yet. Another one that is fast approaching that level is Robinho, he is becoming far more effective for Madrid now with an end product to all the circus tricks. Similar to Ronaldo 2-3 years ago when he first came to United.

Lads i am thinking of getting Nokia N 95 on contract, have read a few reviews and the one constant seems to be poor battery life which i can live with, electricity is in plentiful supply where i live. Anyone have one? some reviews say it is the dogs gonads others not so good. Cheers

I usually do a £5 four timer, at odds of 1/2 upwards, will make you around £25, so you arent gonna get the head cleaved off you by the missus and the children wont go starving if you lose a few of them.

What about everyones favourite commentators quote? Mine is when Motty screams "we have a cup tie on our hands now" when a team scores a goal to only trail 5-1.......

QuoteAsk City or Everton which is more important finishing fifth or winning the FA Cup and they will say fifth.

Do you think? I'd say Everton an City fans would take the Cup over 5th spot. Any 'non big 4' fans want to comment??

QuoteWhether they can get past that under Benitez remains to be seen, but a serious league challenge is the only thing that would satisfy me, in terms of making further progress.
So essentially if Liverpool win the FA Cup and come 4th this year, you will say that they are going backwards?

QuoteAnd spare us the arrogant Liverpool fan stuff - any fan of United, Arsenal and, lately, Chelsea would say the same about their clubs.
As I said there is a pecking order of trophies, but I would never turn my nose up at ANY trophy. Maybe that's just me.


Stagnating would be the term i would use.

QuoteSomeone got stuck into me a while back for saying the League Cup is worthless well guess what the FA Cup is worthless too. If we were still in with a league chance I would not have cared if we were beat. There are only two things that matter to the big 4 the League and the Champions League.

I cannot understand this attitude at all. Winning is winning. Sure there is a pecking order of trophies, but winning the league cup gave the Chelsea players the belief (And the feeling) that they had a squad to lift silverware. It bred 2 premierships, another LC, and a FA Cup! You'd think that Liverpool were coming down with trophies every season!

Surely Mourinho and Abramovichs roubles bred 2 prems etc.......
