  2. Robson never rated him, that's for sure. He must have been our fifth choice striker at best during Sir Bob's tenure

    Such an underachiever Viduka, speaks volumes about the extent to which tenacity plays a part.

    Didn't Shearer praise Viduka for the exact opposite of that? I remember seeing an interview from Shearer backend of last season where Shearer had assumed Viduka had been injured because he hardly featured under Kinnear, and was just waiting for his contract to run out, then after a face-to-face with him, Viduka said he was fit and raring to go, up for the fight and Shearer was impressed with him in training. I meant as players together during Bobby's time tbh. Shearer needed legs and tenacity alongside him

    Shearer and Viduka would have lasted about 6 months on account of Viduka's lack of effort, Shearer wouldn't have stood for it for a second and he had all the influence.
  6. Chops never, ever looked like scoring though. He didn't look as inept as Shola did, but he looked much less like scoring. Didn't Chopra start less than 10 games? Shola had 10 starts before 2002 if memory serves, without looking like a goalscoring threat whatsoever
  7. A very effective championship striker but not really up to it in the premiership. Looking back, it baffles me btw that the likes of Ramage and Shola got their first-team chance whilst Chopra was pretty much always a reserve on the fringes
  8. Totally agree. Completely insane that some people want our strikeforce on Sunday to be him & Ranger. aye. One start between the two of them
  9. :lol: you clearly don't. Is it so difficult to see my point here? That intelligent defending will stop Chopra from making an impact, as opposed to the pace that Simpson will provide Honestly, sober up
  10. Chopra has proved over a long time that he is a very good championship striker. Danny Simpson has played 2 games at CB against League 1 and championship opposition. TWO games, looking completely out of his depth in one.
  11. Chopra will anihilate Simpson man, pace is nowt to do with it. Chopra will be thwarted by intelligence Your statement makes no sense. Our defense is Premiership quality, Chopra is not, this is why we've conceded so few goals this season as most players they've come up against are not premiership quality. Simpson out of position at CB is not Premiership quality. Hence Ronaldo saying we should play Colo, why does that not make sense to you?

How on earth is the part in bold relevant? Simpson has only played CB in 2 games we conceded 3 against League 1 opposition when we had Simpson at CB. It wasn't entirely Krul's fault Coloccini has to return, is all i'm saying

    Was Shearer a genius out of curiosity? He was [skirge]fkn[/skirge] fantastic at what he did, and aye he was smart but wouldn't really call him a footballing genius. Had quite a good footballing brain on him and his technique was brilliant to. Rarely did you ever see him miscontrol a ball. It's quite a common conception that Shearer's style was that of a target man. Yes it was in his later years, but before he lost his mobility he was brilliant at linking up play across the pitch. The best example of the true Shearer for me was the 5-0, he'd control a fairly loose ball, pass it 25 yards diagonally then make a soaring run into the box, absolutely undefendable at his best, comfortably in Drogba's league
  14. Chopra will anihilate Simpson man, pace is nowt to do with it. Chopra will be thwarted by intelligence
  15. Did you miss the Leicester game? He did ok. It's still blatantly obvious that he isn't a CB, not even in this league
  16. GK - Green, Foster, James (through gritted teeth) DEF - Johnson, Ferdinand, Terry, Upson, Richards, Lescott, Cole, Bridge MID - Lennon, Barry, Lampard, Carrick, Gerrard, J Cole, Young, Walcott FWD - Rooney, Defoe, Agbonlahor, Heskey/Crouch - whoever has the best season
  17. Danny Simpson will get anihilated by Chopra. Did you miss the Huddersfield game?
  18. In that case, Cole on the other side to help Johnson out sounds like a plan, not ideal, but better than Lennon giving him protection
  19. Which will probably be Joe Cole. Him and Ashley on the same side will cause problems
  20. He was bloody woeful man Edgar looked a lot more assured on the ball, and that's saying something
  21. Hilarious As it happens, it'd be Lampard and Carrick/Hargreaves for me
