Segun Oluwaniyi Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I was hardly making the point as a celebration of Shola's talents. It's unfair to say Shola is a better option. Do you realise Xisco started/played in three games when we didn't have a manager at all, and the crowd was venomous, and has played a total of about 30 minutes since? Seriosuly, do you realise this? How can you make any conclusion based off of these statistics. Your logic is flawed! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
binnsy Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 i pick shola over Xisco everytime, infact i'd even pick Shola with a fucked hip ahead of Xisco. Xisco is woeful, can't believe people still say give him a chance, 3 managers have came into the club, seen him and ignored him, surely that tells you everything you need to know!!

As a university student I don't really have time or money to drop all my things to see a football match. I've never really been able to pop on the train and be back from the match by five, sorry.

He was saying that Xisco had been ignored by 3 managers. My point was that Hughton didn't ignore him and he was injured for the first 6 weeks of Shearer's 8 week stay.

TRon Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 All Xisco has shown me so far is that Shola is a better option. Which takes some doing. Same as Alan Smith. Xisco hasn't looked impressive in the few games I've seen but he does look like he's got more of an instinct for where the goal is than Shola or Smith. It's clutching at straws but that's all we've got tbh. Without goals we won't win matches and while Xisco might not score them given a run of games, I'm pretyy much certain Shola or Smith won't.

Guest sicko2ndbest Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I think McCormack and Beckford would be 2 very good signings McCormack is a strong talented player who finishes well Beckford is a pacy raw athletic player I think we would get them for about 8mil and they would make a huge difference to our strike force and complement out two giants Carroll and Ameobi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12876_5476449,00.html Portsmouth are ready to listen to offers for striker David Nugent, with Stoke reportedly interested in his signature. The 24-year-old was sent home from Pompey's Portugal training camp following a fight with team-mate Marc Wilson, where the former Preston man was rumoured to be hit on the legs with a lump of wood. However, Nugent turned down a loan move to the Britannia Stadium 18 months ago, and another unnamed club have also made an enquiry. The striker has failed to make an impression at Fratton Park since his £6million move from North End in 2007, and Pompey chief executive Peter Storrie has revealed the club are open to negotiations. "We have identified players we want to sell - no-one has to be a brain surgeon to work out who they are," he told The News. "There are players that if the right offers come in we will sell them. As for David, we had an enquiry about him yesterday (Wednesday) morning." Meanwhile, Storrie has revealed why Pompey missed out on Nikola Kalinic, with the Croatian striker now set to join Blackburn. The 25-year-old is set to sign for Rovers subject to a work permit application, despite Pompey making the first move. He said: "The transfer fee was pretty well agreed, all we were arguing about was payment terms because we were not in a position to put any money down. "What I was looking to do there was make the first transfer payment in October or January and then it goes on from there. "We did get there but the danger is if somebody else comes in and puts the money down - which Blackburn did." Worth a shot for the right price.....
