SteveMc Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Can't believe we're only an hour from kick-off and there's little interest in this thread. Any team news? Quotes from Pardew in the Sunday Sun saying he's considering handing Sammy Ameobi a debut. Probably problems with his registration and we'll be deducted 12 points Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 "Sammy will travel with the squad, we are thinking about it. He did fantastic in the game this week. I wasn't there because I was abroad, but the guys gave me a fantastic report and we've got high hopes for him. He's a little bit different to Shola. He looks the same, but on the football pitch he doesn't. He doesn't have the same attributes. He's got fantastic technical ability and speed as well. We've got high hopes - a lot to learn but there's a potential player there." - so basically, he might be good and Shola's shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 A potential player. Encouraging. When you look up "potential" in the thesaurus, you get "Ameobi". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ObiChrisKenobi Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Pardew's description is about right to be honest; lanky, bit of pace, not much strength, has a few tricks and is a lot more comfortable on the ball than Ameobi Shola has ever been.

Jill Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 I'm hungover as fuck and to be perfectly honest it's one of those days that could be a total write-off, especially if I see two Ameobis on the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Isn't it lovely that an unknown reserve has better ability on the ball than a player with 300 apps for us? Just shoot the useless cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ObiChrisKenobi Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 One thing the two Ameobi's do share is the strange lax attitude/work rate. Where as Shola probably isn't really trying, Sammy looks like he isn't trying, but still manages to do something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
