Hanshithispantz Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 We need two starting strikers in the summer, Best and Ameobi can be third and fourth with Ranger out on loan. One starting striker and one other striker. Mr X with Ben Arfa just off him should be our first choice pairing next year imo. I'm convinced HBA will get the left wing slot. Really cant see Pards playing him as a striker or attacking central midfielder as he's too light. Too light? Unlike the brick shit house he's currenty playing up front in Peter 'Shoulders' Lovenkrands? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I'd go with Best and Shola at the moment. I've had enough of watching Lovenkrands scamper around the pitch doing fuck all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Best is in better form, but Shola's hold up play is of massive use to the team. They should be our front 2 with Ranger and Kuqi on the bench and Lovenkrands nowhere near the squad. Would go with this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I'd go with Best and Shola at the moment. I've had enough of watching Lovenkrands scamper around the pitch doing f*** all. Agreed. Loven has contributed with nothing at all to the general play. Sure he has gotten 2 or 3 goals but he's been absolutely dogshite otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Lovenkrands is way below Premier League level, I was worried about Leon Best but Loven has been so much worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Just saw the statistic on .com about him being tenth top goalscorer in our post-war history!

Wil Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I find myself respecting Shola more and more these days. He continues to put his body on the line and has done so now for a number of years, particularly through his hip problems a while back. It's remarkable he's been around so long, but I was chuffed for him for that performance. Arguably the most critical game of the season and he ran their defence ragged. We really needed him, and it was just great stuff by the man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I think he's a better player than many give him credit for, he's just horribly inconsistent and that's probably down to forever being 2nd choice all his career. I think he could've easily held down a spot at another average PL club as a starting striker for a number of years to some success. Like Harper he's been a brilliant servant to the club, although a very frustrating one at times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really needed him, and it was just great stuff by the man. Agreed. His progress has been hampered injuries too. He was in really good form at the start of the season, before a injury once again stopped him. The away game against Arsenal was the best game I've ever seen from him. Didn't score a goal, but he worked his socks of. He had to switch between being a fifth midfielder and supporting Carroll. Also he held onto the ball so the rest of the team could move higher up.
