I guess you don't know the basics of football then?

When tackling someone infront of you from the left hand side (right hand side) use your left (right) leg.

Easy innit.

Beye's gash and has no technique. Surely you can see that. Who knows, with him banned, you may have gone on to perform better and stopped yourself from getting relegated.

That bit about which leg you use to tackle is wrong. It depends on your stride, if you cannot afford to take another step, you have to tackle with whichever foot is free.

As for calling Beye gash, that is so far from the truth it's unreal.

I'd have Long John Silver ahead of Vassell.

Sportsmail's Star of the Season NEWCASTLE UNITED Another club from the north-east deep in the relegation mire, but maybe the performances of Taylor, Martins and Butt have given Newcastle fans something to smile about during a traumatic season on Tyneside. 1. Steven Taylor 2. Obafemi Martins 3. Nicky Butt Really struggling to understand how they've come up with those three.

I know that I will be considered biased, but what does Kevin Davies have to do to get an England call-up?

Become a much better player?

You have to wait when you are 'in stride'.

I'd love to know his strengths. He's as clueless as he looks gormless.

Class player, based on...? Wayne Rooney is a class player, Xabi Alonso is a class player, Michael Johnson on the other hand...

Based on him virtually single-handedly carrying a poor Prem team into the top 4 for half a season. Then when he got injured, the team went to pieces.

Again, based on what? I'd hazard a guess that you've seen very little of him (less than 30 games).

You don't need to watch 30 games to realise a player is poor. I like Bassong though.

If you need 30 games on which to base an opinion, then you can have no opinion of Michael Johnson. Have you actually seen Anderson play 30 times? I doubt it.

When you realise your opinion isn't gospel, then it may be possible to have a debate. It's also easier to have a debate when you don't come out with bullshit comments, ala your reply above about Beye.

Spot the hypocrisy in the above post.

It's the way you come across, like when I questioned your claim Johnson was far better than Anderson. I was wrong because my view didn't meet yours.

Your opinion may not have been wrong but the basis of your argument was inaccurate, thus I ridiculed you. You were not even aware of Johnson's trenths and waeknesses. How can I debate with someone who has a lack of knowledge about the subject?

Talking to a tea towel would offer a lot more sensible comments than you do.

Tell me of a comment made by a teatowel? Monty Pythonesque, I know but it highlights how childish your statement really is.

Just been watching SSN, has Giggs really been that good to win PFA player of the year?
