The same was said about Jon Dahl Tomasson when he was here, it didn't mean he was well-suited to playing as an out-and-out striker either.
Jon Dahl was a great finisher. Wasn't his fault he was asked to play as frontline striker when he clearly wasn't one.
Didn't he miss a sitter against Sheff Wed early in his Newcastle career which seemed to knock his confidence and from that moment he was doomed here.
2nd minute of the first game of the season.
He also provided an awesome back-heel for Asprilla's goal in the same game. Some may say he was clean through and trod on the ball mind.........
Why the f*** would a Sunderland fan watch the SPL though? They've paid £9m for a myth. His first test is Keane and Berbatov. We shall see...
He's not a myth tbh
Aye, it's been on a local radio in Edinburgh (Apparently the editor knows Gordon really well) and Talksport.
Proper wankfest over there btw, Better than Given according to some, one of the best 5 keepers in the world according to others.
Ballack, when allowed to roam is one of the best playmakers in Europe.
He can play everywhere in the centre of midfield. Attack, defence and patrolling across the pitch.
