Guest EMCB Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I’m living in St. Petersburg at the moment and it’s common knowledge here that he’s coming to Toon this January. Everyone’s telling me he’ll be the answer to our prayers and get us a trophy. We’ll see… Good player mind. I’ve watched him quite a few times over the last few years. He actually reminds me more of Bellamy, but without the attitude and shoulder chip. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 COme on, FM-tastic posters. Not seen enough "he's got the right blend pf pace and teamworking to make him ideal for us" type postings. Do what you normally do, make this shit up if you have to, just pretend you know what he's like!! The forum seems dead without your sycophantic ramblings.

Guest EMCB Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 He is not afraid to take players on and will not hesitate to dribble the ball into the box. Sometimes, I have seen him drift out of a game, but invariably it turned out he was carrying a knock. Zenit’s real inspiration this season has been their Ukrainian skipper Anatoly Timaschuk. He’s an out and out midfield player along the lines of Butt and Barton, packs a tremendous shot, and lacks the occasional violent tendency our former Man City player exhibits. He only joined the club this season and is said to be one of the inspirations behind their successful campaign, but I think that’s a bit high, considering he had a slow start. Zenit are actually being castigated to an extent by the rest of the country for not playing entertaining football all season, but as Jose showed at Chelsea, it’s the results that count I guess. It’s also a load of sour grapes from Moscow, since the clubs there believe they have a God given right to win the Premiership every year, and poor Spartak were the bridesmaids for the third season running.

Dave Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 When England played Russia they looked (like many foreign teams) to have an abundance of technical skill. I'll take some of that please. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest EMCB Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 He was skipper when England played in Moscow, but I'm not sure if he's always the skipper. He's not at Zenit as I said earlier, because Timaschuk is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATB Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Saw some highlights from Rus-Eng game and he looks to be a very impressive player. Good technique and fast. I would be really happy to see him here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 sounds to me like the sort of comments people were making when we bought Luque and Boumsong And, going back further, the sort of comments when hopeless supporters of the club seriously thought we had a good club when we sold players like Beardsley and hoped we replaced him with players for a quarter of the price like Mirandhina. Mentioning no names, they know who they are. In short, it appears to me that the club are lowering their sights and ambitions. But I sincerely hope that I am wrong.

James Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I reckon January would be the best time to sign this guy, I can perceive Allardyce doing what Fergie did with Evra and Vidic. Thus he could be a bit of a Luque until 2008/09, but then he becomes a bit brilliant, playing in some attacking midfield role in whatever system Allardyce is slowly trying to tune this season.

Wenger said that Eduardo won't be a regular for at least 6 months as it'll take him that long to adapt to the Premiership. People expect too much too quickly from foreign players.

Optimistic Nut Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 A lot of people had seen quite a bit of Boumsong & Luque before they came though.
