buzza Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 P.S. Forgot, I don't like his half hearted challenges (when he even attempts them) Just back up for the bench then... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

henke Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 To improve Obertan you'd need to give him a lobotomy. Can you imagine that, you'd need a stihl saw to get through his nut. Failing that a trip to the wizard of Oz. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I'm looking forward to seeing him showcase his skills on the left come Sunday afternoon. What a time to be alive. Honestly if he starts man, him or Gouffran, Jesus It's happening http://i.imgur.com/RwR2kY3.jpg Don't think either will start. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I actually don't mind Obertan, he seems to try in games and occasionally conjures up some decent play, his pace scares defenders thus forcing them a little deeper so his influence on games, albeit indirect, is an advantage. In fairness, he should only be a bench player or competition for ayoze or aarons. Give him a chance, you never know? It's just a shame that he's a wide man that can't cross, shoots like a 6 year old, and when he gets some space to run at actually checks and slows down in case he's expected to do something with it.

TRon Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I'm just surprised Pardew hasn't swooped in for the lad seeing as how it was his personal relationship with Sir Alex which allowed us to steal the young protege for £3.5m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 The club can't tell us with a straight face they've improved the squad enough if this guy even gets 1 minute. Should have been put down years ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness, he should only be a bench player or competition for ayoze or aarons. Give him a chance, you never know? No disrespect, but it baffles me how anyone can see any positives in Obertan. If I was being generous, I'd say he puts in 2 competent performances a season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

djmattis Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I love a good underdog story. My real hope with every single player we have this season is that they all improve under our new coaching setup. No better way to stick it to Pardew/Carver than s*** players under those t***s improve 100 fold with real coaches. (more hope than expecting great things though) Point is that we got a set-up of players, and if it all "clicks", then it would be absolutely amazing. Proving the critics wrong etc. Then we can all ejaculate over pictures of Gabriel the great and force feed ourselves with pies and candy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Perhaps McClaren wants a winger and we only have Obertan and Aarons. Aarons needs a bit of protection, so McClaren plays Obertan to tell the board: I need a new one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
