indi Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Gypsyking: i'd reckon that a significant proportion of footballers are only interested in the immediate future. After all contracts mean nothing nowadays so if it doesn't work out they can just move on to somewhere else. Also that may very well be good enough for you or i, but it's probably not for a player that neither knows nor cares about keegan's history with us, particularly a foreigner who night never have even heard of kevin keegan!

Belfast Boy Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Franz Beckenbauer, Allan Simonsen, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, Paolo Rossi, Michel Platini. Throw them in with Keegan and you have 10 years of winners of European player of the year. Any there you haven't heard of? Didn't think so, of course footballers know who Keegan is.

indi Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 And what, if anything do you know about each of their managerial careers? Next to nothing you say? Thought so! As has already been said, martins didn't know who he was and guess what, he was already playing for us at the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alijmitchell Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 He's on the bench aint he? Aye but I'd have thought they'd start their best player? Just suggest they'll use him only if they really have to. Also they've bought some portuguese lad for 25m who plays the same position as well.

Skirge Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 They have tried touting him to so many clubs, looks like Spuds may still be in the running though.. Its that old "not in the right frame of mind" crack though aint it.. so on the bench.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest nufc 4 life Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Don't want him. I agree.The amount of clubs he has said he wanted to go to, not one of those clubs have been us. I think he would only come here for money and the chance to prove himself so he can move onto a bigger club. I don't believe he would come here and give his all for the club, not himself. For those reasons, he doesn't fit in with what Keegan has said he wants and personally i don't particularly want someone here who doesn't want to give everything to the club.

chicago_shearer Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 27 is a bit old IMO. If we are making Euro 2008 fantasy signings then I'd rather have Arda Turan or Podolski (if Bayern sign Berbatov and he becomes available). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afar Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 I would still have Arshavin here in a heartbeat. I'm not convinced he's beyond our reach either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Like a lot of others have said, I'd rather have Turan - he knows how to get stuck in for the team when the going gets tough. Also: Does this match constitute as Europe? As in, are you cup tied if you play in this match? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Arshavin is top, top quality, but I doubt he will come here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Arshavin is top, top quality, but I doubt he will come here. Why he seemed happy to sign for a team propping up the PL ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Arshavin is top, top quality, but I doubt he will come here. Really? then why hasn't he been snapped up by a big club? And does one season where you get noticed really justify this "top, top quality" comment? Enough big clubs have been in for him, but you can't blame them for not wanting to spend £25m on a 27 yr old. I am not justifying the top quality remark, that's just my opinion of him after the Euros. He looks to have everything going forwards...vision, pace, finishing ability.

Thespence Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 As it gets closer to TDD he will more than likely be willing to come to us. We may not be his plan A(or B,C or D) but like Owen found out a few years back you dont always get to chose were ye gan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't dispute that he has some quality, he has shown flashes of it in the Euros and during last season. But "top, top quality" suggests in my book someone of a standard where a £25m fee wouldn't stop a big club from buying him. Like I said, if he was 23 instead of 27 I'm sure he'd have been sold by now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
