Ronaldo Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 You have to wonder why didn't just keep hba when you look at cabella and thauvin. We basically spent 25 mill to not adequately replace hba. Genius. That's a massive exaggeration, like. Like fuck it is. Cabella £8m Thauvin £12m 8 + 12 = 20 - (whatever Marseille have paid and will pay in the future for Cabella's services). I don't think this equals £25m.

mrmojorisin75 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 I haven't seen any signs of quality from this lad so far. It was good to see him involved, saw lots of the ball in the first half, looked fairly quick. But quality? Didn't see any at all. Define quality. Give me a stat. There's no way this lad is s*** like, yesterday in the bits I could make out he was always looking for the ball and looking for forward passes etc. such as that dink over the top first half that was just a bit heavy. He'll come good imo, as long as the team itself starts to function. Quality. f*** off Final ball / shot, beating a man. He must have delivered at least a dozen crosses in the last two games, none with quality. Not a single quality ball played in general play. set-pieces have been poor. Here's a stat for you. He's attempted 8 take-ons in the last two games (which is good to see).... he's completed just one of them. I've not said he's shit or anything like that. As I've said I think a lot his problems will solve themselves with time, he needs to hit form and his groove. At the moment he's trying stuff but it's just not coming off, that won't last forever. Crucially unlike HBA and Cabella it looks like the manager will give him time and back him to come good. Everything has to be instant these days, there's some fucking crowing he called Mitrovic as shite after two games on here ffs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems widely accepted that cabella was nearer 12 than 8. In any event we ended paying hba off and he was an asset. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 People must have been watching a different game because I thought he was by far our best player first half... by far. Second half he disappeared due to being shifted to the left, but first half he was involved in or the instigator of everything we did offensively. Final ball is pretty poor, so many times it was just a floated ball with gomes catching it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 What does time have to do with delivering a good cross or set piece? The set pieces were okay yesterday, nothing you can do if we don't have anybody to get on the end of them. If Deeney and Ighalo were in our team then the crosses might look a little better.

Thanks for proving how little you actually know about football. I've asked you a simple question and you respond with an insult. You're pathetic. I didn't insult you actually. And the basis of my criticism was that I said that timing is important to an attacker and you said that it has no bearing on free kicks or corners when it's vitally important. Have you ever kicked a football? Genuine question. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Of course and in seconds you could tell that i'm shit. Likewise, generally quality tends to stand out. Gomes caught so many crosses easily yesterday. Against West Ham the crosses couldn't beat the first man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Alright? He was utter horse s*** again. I'd be f***ing livid if I was Aarons watching. He needs to buck his ideas up as he looks lost. Aarons has built a reputation from pre-season. So did Vucic. His cameo couple of games back was horrible. At the moment I'd start Aarons as a left-back just because Haidara is shot of confidence and ability. What does this even mean? That people think he's the shit based on a few pre-season performances.

The College Dropout Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 When I think of the best NUFC widemen, you could pretty much tell from the start that they had real quality. Thikn Robert & HBA scored fantastic debut goals. Even when Nobby came back you could see that right foot was still a wand. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
