That's a classic swoopism well done for beating him to it?

Quite right Ian. Anything I could come up with now would just not be up to Pardew to Danbert's brilliance!

This is a strange one.. Kinner was pretty much a failure there last time.. hasn't managed for years, was out dated then, so why bring him into a spot all about long term thinking.....

Has Gazza turned up with the fishing rods and fried chicken yet?

Gus Poyet and his staff suspended by Brighton, what's that all about, not heard him linked with any other jobs

Gus sacked while he is on the telly

Seems to me that Baconface tested his character and it was found wanting, not rising to the competition from RVP

He was happy to play second fiddle to Ronaldo..

I just think he had a bad season and struggled.

12 million is a good price by Juve.. I'd have thought more.

A shame that as I enjoyed watching him play in the Premier League. Juventus are in the Champions League though so no doubt we will see him on the telly.

Not sure.. a player who plays when he wanted to...

For Man U he picked his games.. only started playing well that season he left when he realised he needed a contract.. started numerous games that season to little effect before March time..

For City, had some poor spells, came but came good again after his time out when he needed fans onside.. then wasn't the same...

Class player when he wanted to be... it was why I rated Ronaldo so highly as even though he wanted to leave he was class.
