midds Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 The way he dummied Hart tonight was sublime. You can't buy class. That was liquid football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtype Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Hopefully he goes off on another one of his completely random goal every two games runs and keeps us up. Still has no long term future here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syrette Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Still has no long term future here. Nah, give him another chance. He's still young and he's local. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 played better tonight than he has for a long time. still don't think he has a future here. honestly thought he's put it wide when scored but he did the right thing in carrying it forwrad a touch instead snatching early at a ball that was a bit high to have a crack at.

M4 Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 So another 10 year contract for the lad, and loads of "he's not that bad" comments? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 As someone mentioned, he might just go on one of those random runs he has every couple of years where he gets about 4 or 5 in 8 games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
9 Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Fair play to him he put in a good performance last night, nothing special ,that's just how id expect a premiership striker to play week in week out, but we all seen Smith put in a performance much the same v Arsenal at home last season(minus the goal of course) and couldn't follow it up.

Rebellious Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Only Shola could have scored that goal. Anyone else and the keeper would have saved it. It was the shear fact that it couldn`t go anymore opposite to what he was trying to do that made it a goal. He`s scored a few like that i think. Well done though he did well tonight. I wasn`t expecting it. He was the first player to commit a foul, misplace a pass and get in the way all with in the first few mins. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I was celebrating the moment it landed at his feet, genuinely. I knew he was going to score from the moment he headed the ball away (for City) in the opening five minutes. I said to my mate "by some massive stroke of fortune, Shola will net one tonight". It was just destiny that he was gonna score. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not actually bad at finishing one on ones, and the fact he's quite confident taking penalties backs that up. Getting in the box and taking up good positions is his problem, but it sounds like JK has been telling him to do precisely that. Thought him and Martins really gave the City a defence a going over last night and I'm guessing they will put the shits up the Mackems as well on Saturday.

Thespence Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I think in situations like this its important to support everyone pulling on the shirt rather than sniping from the stands like a clever b******. Your right this is not a laughing matter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JH Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 It's amazing how much confidence people have in him. When he grabbed the ball in the box, I thought it was going to blaze wide Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Best game he's had for ages, although admitedly that's not saying much - Played an excellent pass to Duff, had a good flick that went over the bar, but was still fist-bitingly frustrating at times, standing around off-side, daydreaming instead of chasing balls, falling over his legs when he was put through... Good to see him not looking completely hopless mind, deserved to be clapped off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stephen927 Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Credit to Kinnear. Seems to have given him a new breath of life. Before he was moping around the pitch full of self pity, now he at least looks like challenging the opposition defenders. Deserved his bit of luck for the goal.

Super mac said on the Legends that Kinnear has been working with him 1 to 1 and trying to get his attitude right which can only be a good thing but he should have self belief anyway but sniping from the stands doesnt help .

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Nicky Butt said Shola had only been training for a couple of day in the after game interview so I assume Shola still has injury problems. Butt who was Setanta Man of the Match said it should have gone to Shola. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
