TRon Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I remember fellow fans saying that they'd rather have Gouffran than Ben Arfa because, "he puts effort in and tracks back". Except he fucking doesn't and tomorrow is a prime example of that. Fucking useless player supported by fans who help destroy this club until it was too late and he's our only fit player! Morons. If we wanted a player to track back we should have bought a full back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TruToon94 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I remember fellow fans saying that they'd rather have Gouffran than Ben Arfa because, "he puts effort in and tracks back". Except he f***ing doesn't and tomorrow is a prime example of that. f***ing useless player supported by fans who help destroy this club until it was too late and he's our only fit player! Morons. If we wanted a player to track back we should have bought a full back. Hey now for Pards EVERY player regardless of prior positions played in were fair game. Striker? Track back. Attacking winger, track back. Central Midfielder, track back. The left back subs killed me because of how random they were. Now we've got a squad full of players not good enough to defend and not good enough to attack. I said and I know many on here said that attacking should players should attack and defenders defend but the majority of fans thought EVERYBODY should defend except Cisse. Now we've got the squad the minority of us warned about. Hope those bastards are happy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Those fans should be put in the stocks in the middle of town and pelted with rotten fruit though. I'd throw cabbages, hot Bovril and gravel at them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 He was never a world beater buy he actually looked like a handy player until Pardew drilled his 'defensive winger' mentality into him. That being said it takes a special kind of helmet to stick a player who had offered absolutely nothing for well over year in the number ten position, incredible.

Guest firetotheworks Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Those fans should be put in the stocks in the middle of town and pelted with rotten fruit though. Definitely, along with those who defended Pardew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 By the way, he has absolutely none of attributes needed to play 'second striker' either. Perhaps he hasn't shown them whilst being the defensive winger Pardew turned him into but they were very evident at Bordeaux... Agree, I thought he looked alright before we got our hands on him. To be a second striker you need vision, dribbling and passing ability above all else. Gouffran's especially shit in all of these areas. Glad we discussed it, though.

Mattoon Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 When he lost the ball yesterday and stood with his hands on his hips while they strolled up the other end and slotted it in without being tackled, that was a highlight for me. The exact thing HBA was accused of and vilified for by all and sundry, doesn't get mentioned though. Love how players like him stay on the pitch while players like Abeid get subbed too, great management. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest axel Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Fucking hell, Bordeaux actually paid 6.5m euros for him. Makes our deal seem good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayoze has those abilities though, so it's not that difficult to imagine if Gouffran was given the instruction to look for goals a la Cisse, he could at least have a stab at it. As opposed to pretending to be a left back or a midfielder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 What's Azoye got to do with the fact that Gouffran's not a second striker? Gouffran's at best a second rate poacher. A poor footballer who somehow spent most of his career in that circus across the channel as wide player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I don't think he was ever a 'second striker' in the traditional creative sense. He was a wide forward in a 4-3-3 type. A forward but not a line-leader, basically. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
