David Icke - Son of God Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 He seems very arrogant in his play and reactions to things - like he wants all the glory. It's just a little thing I picked up watching him a couple of weeks back. Maybe I'm just reading too much into it. He deserves to be. He's been outstanding so far.

cubaricho Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 There's a lot of hard work in becoming a professional athlete but it's equal parts luck and who you know as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Have to say so far he's looked far better than I thought he was. I was expecting him to be quick but have no end product whatsoever, but he whips in quite a decent cross, and he's played in some clever passes on the deck too. He does tend to try and beat one man too many sometimes but for what we paid he looks a very useful player. I think him and Jonas are going to make each other look three times their value, as when both play together it's much harder to double up on them.

That's an excellent point and we've severely missed having both flanks being dangerous with pace. It's also a massive relief on the centre midfield as it has had to soak up all the pressure for too long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 It's exciting having two players who can carry the ball 50-60 yards on each wing. Even if the end product isn't great when we go up, that attribute could be massive in keeping us up just those two relieving the pressure, winning free-kicks and corners etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 I was happy as soon as I heard we'd signed him. Might have been blind optimism as I haven't seen him play for a while, but I'd heard he was doing well this season and he pretty much ran things against us earlier in the year. It's just good to have a bit of pace, and balance in the team. I love watching this type of player, like a poor mans Lennon, with hints of Dyer in there. Hopefully he doesn't fade away. His end product has surprised me a bit, its actually been pretty decent. I might be getting carried away but if we go up, first team wingers would now probably be at the bottom of my priority list (along with Left Back of course).

Nobody Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Been a brilliant signing so far. How many assists in how many games now? Plus a great, and important, goal too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Glad I bumped this, very positive repsonse. He's looking exactly the player we expected and perhaps a bit more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Even if you sign a bunch of players, you won't be signing nobody to replace what's perceived as one of your best performers, 6 months after signing him. Routledge will be starting the first game next season (bar injury). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquidAK Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 I think we'll need cover there as atm Routledge is the only real right winger we have, and if we're back in the Premier League we might be in a position to get someone better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah right so because we had a canny decent January window (for once) I should be positive and think that when we get promoted everything he has done in the past he will have learned from?

Colocho Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 He seems very arrogant in his play and reactions to things - like he wants all the glory. It's just a little thing I picked up watching him a couple of weeks back. Maybe I'm just reading too much into it. After he set up Ranger, I saw him lash out at Simpson for congratulating him.
