Guest gggg Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 From what i've seen he's got abit of the Martins about him. Not reffering to his inconsistant form (i don't know about his form) but in the way he moves his feet, very unorthadox like Kanu or Lua Lua. He has an African style. He looks like he can use his head too. Strange that. I don't mean it in any sort of racist way, just to be clear. I've always thought African's have played in a somewhat different style. Fuck it, pass me the spade. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Martin's pace, shooting, directness and workrate would be nice, like. The bloke is a football weakling. He's s***. He's not. He had some very useful attributes. We'd have gone down in 06-07 without him, and fuck knows where we'd be now if that had happened. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alberto2005 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 From SMB "Know nothing about him. However, after some research I found this: Incredibly, he manages to make skinning 3 defenders and curling one in with the outside of his boot, look shit.

Guest MrSundlofer Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 So here is the report from the Ligue 1 expert I talked about earlier... STRENGTHS - Extremely good on his head. A very good header of the ball. - A target man. - His shots are very hard. He shots "like a horse". - His technique is both functional and worth seeing (attracting). - Will get points (assists, goals). WEAKNESS / NOT SO GOOD THINGS - He has attitude problems. - On the field he may sometimes have trouble controlling his emotions. POSITIONS - Can play in many different positions. - Can be a poacher, like Inzaghi. - He can play on the wing in the same role as Gervinho. - But for the most of the time he plays like a target man in attack with 1 or 2 strikers. That is his best role. - Not so very good on the right wing in a 4-4-2 formation. OTHER - He maybe could be a little bit more faster. Even though he doesn't lack pace. - Not very consistent. - A class player! (When he wants). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Attitude problems are a worry but since the rest of our team seem pretty level headed that may help calm him or whatever. Sounds good otherwise, especially the flexibility, if he is good in gervinho role, gives us an Obertan alternative Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 ooops didn't see not good on right wing bit...fail on my part there. Oh well, can see him working well with Ba upfront Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Remember watching plenty of clips on youtube and he certainly is good in the air. In fact most of the goals were headed goals so he defo uses his 6'2 height very well and has an excellent leap on him. Carr et al have obviously looked at his skills and figured they're ideal for the prem. Possible 16m sale in the summer after impressing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Gleebals Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Worries me that we are signing another player destined for ANC football. We need a European or English striker as well IMO otherwise we will be short in the critical months of Jan/Feb. PL will surely be off in the summer - leaving us with Best, Shola, Ba, Maiga (and one more ideally). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDT Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 It's a bit of a short term view if we weren't going to sign him because he'd miss a month this season, the ANC is going to be in the summer after this seasons Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
