AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 In the other threads everyone is taking about relying on Shola because Remy is out... must just be expecting an injury as part of the whole 'the worst thing possible will definitely happen' approach.

Disco Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 For those who think he'll score a bundle he's 80/1 on Victor to be top scorer, worth a couple of beans each way at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 For those who think he'll score a bundle he's 80/1 on Victor to be top scorer, worth a couple of beans each way at least. I've seen this term used a few times on here recently. When did the UK abandon GBP and introduce GBB? Is it worth me investing in a bean farm?

Eddy Chibas Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 It's unfair to blame his tally purely on his ability, yes there are chances he should be scoring that he isn't, he's not in the same class as say RVP, he's in the same class as those strikers that infuriate at times. For him to do well, as has been said, we need to change our approach to games. He's not gonna take down a 40 yard pass every game, take on two defenders and rifle a shot past the keeper from 18 yards, cuz that's all he's getting! He needs support in and around the box, a slide through pass from some pressing play, or a simple one-two with someone in support, a midfielder running into the box and pushing it sideways in front of him, etc.. How often do we see that in a game? We're too negative and scared to press up the pitch, unless we get bodies higher up we're never gonna see him netting 20 a season. Again it boils down to playing for our opponents weaknesses rather than our strengths and unless we change that fundamental floor we'll never see any of our "purples" playing to their full potential unfortunately.

toontownman Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Granted he needs service, but he has somehow got worse from last season. He has developed Ameobi first tough, Debuchy strength and Taylor Brain. We need at least another striker and winger. Preferably someone creative through the middle too. That is regardless of replacing Cabaye. We are an utter shambles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
