Skirge Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 http://www.nufc.co.uk/articles/20100407/jonas-targets-treble-ambition_2240137_2017262 Jonas Targets Treble Ambition By Craig Hope WITH promotion secured, a Championship winner's medal still to play for and the World Cup looming large on the horizon, Argentinian wing ace Jonas Gutierrez admits that he is one third of the way through his season-long goals. The Buenos Aries-born star has been one of the leading lights for Chris Hughton's side this year, his untiring left-wing endeavours complimented by three goals and seven direct assists, not to mention the countless scores which have arrived thanks to his danger-zone incursions. Gutierrez, a regular during the qualifying campaign, also looks set for place in Diego Maradona's national squad for this summer's showcase tournament in South Africa, but, for the time being, it is club matters which are of chief concern for the Gallowgate favourite. "At the start of the season we sat together as a team and talked about what we wanted to do," he said, "We all said that we had to get back in the Premier League. "It has been a long season and at times has been hard, but we have achieved our goal and I am very happy. "We now want to finish without losing a game and to win the title - that would be special for me and for the fans. "It would be a present for them and would make all of the players very happy if we could do that. "That is my next goal but after that, of course, there is the World Cup. "It has been my dream since I was a little boy to play in the World Cup for my country and it's going to be a very exciting time for me. "I hope to make the squad because that will hopefully finish off a perfect season." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I think we will all be keeping a close eye on Jonas at the world cup, i hope he sets it alight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Na i'd love him to be absolutely amazing for Argentina, set him up nicely for the premiership. It's also good to have quality international players playing for your club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtype Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 June 17th will be the first time in my life where I hope for Jonas to play miserably. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 He's hardly going to star on the world stage, is he? Yeah, you're right, he has no chance against the footballing gods of Greece, Korea, and Nigeria. Whilst playing alongside shit like Messi, Higuan, Tevez and Aguero.

On the other hand it'll get other players looking at us as an attractive option again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 He didn't manage it alongside the same players against Peru, Venezuela and Bolivia. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Based on the system Maradona has supposedly settled on Jonas isn't gonna get anywhere near the attacking freedom he gets with us. He's basically just the workhorse for Messi. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 He didn't manage it alongside the same players against Peru, Venezuela and Bolivia. Who else did in that team? 'No one' is the answer you're looking for. If Argentina come good, Jonas will be a part of that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 But they won't and he won't stand out, James Perch nullified him, man. Good player no better than that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 But they won't and he won't stand out, James Perch nullified him, man. Good player no better than that. ...why does there have to be a rule that if one player can nullify a player, that that sets their standard? Football never, ever works like that. I remember when Jenas outdid Vieira, when Edgar outdid Ronaldo, when Scott Parker fucking outdid the Arsenal starting XI. It means nothing in one match. Like you said in another thread about Defoe, and Keane. Just because they've been outdone by a certain player, it doesn't lower their level. Like I say if Argentina step up, then Jonas will too. If that happens then of course he'll stand out, in a team with Messi, Tevez, Aguero, Mascherano, Veron, and Higuan, he'll stick out like a sore thumb as a 'who's that!?' in the midfield if he's constantly taking players on, which he will do.

Teasy Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 It happens to Jonas every 3rd game. Ronaldo got an assist in that game btw. No it doesn't. Oh and Ronaldo passed the ball to Scholes from the left, he hardly needed to beat Edgar to pass a ball from the other side of the pitch. The fact is Edgar had him in his pocket. As usual you're argument makes no sense. Ricardo Fuller gave Coloccini a bit of a raping, so that makes Coloccini shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Higuian Messi Di Maria Veron Jonas Mascherano Heinze Samuel Demichelis Otamendi That's the line-up they played against Germany and is apparently what they have settled on tactically. 4 centre halfs so Jonas doesn't have a full back to link up with in the same way he does Enrique, apparently he's in the team to just do the running all game long, covering and hastling everybody - they don't really see him as an attacking threat in the same way he is with us. Makes sense I guess because that will probably get the most out some of his best attributes (stamina and workrate). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
