Dinho lad Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 I've just had a shudder thinking about Kenny Sansom, Ian Rush and John Barnes though. The same John Barnes who finished top scorer? Even though he had the mobility of a supertanker, he was still a cut above in terms of passing and vision. Me, personally, I loved Barnesy, I did!

Jayson Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 He got good reviews at the start moreso because he cost 10 million, rather than any consistantly decent performances Revisionist historian? Nah i always had the same opinion of him that season. More credit than he deserved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Gutted that it's taken us so long to get him, but I am actually glad he's finally here. Always been a real top-class performer for as long as I have been watching football and I'm just crossing my fingers that his legs have enough in them and his head is in the right place for the entirety of his time here. Could prove to be a real shrewd acquisition if he stays fit and marshals the defence. Sort of an "Patrick Kluivert/Alan Smith" feel about this deal, as if he was always going to play for us at some point (probably just due to the amount we were linked with them all before they eventually signed). If he can combine Smith's attitude and Kluivert's ability (despite being in the twilight of his career) then he'll be spot-on, but if he gets those two mixed up, we're fucked.
