ponsaelius Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Still not convinced he's actually good Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Still not convinced he's actually good This. He's the budget Arjen Robben. Although that 4 or 5 game spell in Autumn he was ridiculous. His performance at Villa Park was Ben Arfa esque. The irony. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley17 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Has a mighty wallop on him, i'll give him that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 He's plenty good enough for us. Would cost money though, which rules it out completely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Don't get why the Journal are saying he's fallen out of favour, hasn't he been injured? Only just injured I think, has been on the bench for a while. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2553268/Andros-Townsend-champing-bit-return-Tottenham-welcome-host-injured-stars.html According to that he had a hamstring injury for nearly two months of the season like. http://i.imgur.com/ELUx7YX.png Started twice since coming back from it.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Sign Townsend and we'll be in League 2 before we know it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Flash Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 He's poor IMO and spurs will want north of 10m for him easily Yep. The 2 most stubborn negotiators in the league will make sure this never happens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Poor? Dear me, man. I know he's English and nowt special, like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Poor? Dear me, man. I know he's English and nowt special, like. He'd do wonders for us at the minute, would cost too much though. That's said objectively, without any of the Ashley patter. Would get far better value elsewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smal Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I remember him being absolutely shit for Leeds in the few games he played for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 He's average at worst. I know for a fact if he was French/Dutch/German and had scored and impressed for his country this season there'd be a collective wankfest going on, with you cheerleading.

Jack Flash Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 1 goal and 1 assist in the league this year with similar game time to Ben Arfa (who has 3 and 6 respectively) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 He's not as good as Hatem, but he's much better than poor. I see him as a much more talented, quicker version of the old Jonas with plenty of time to develop end product. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Agree with Ronaldo, the idea that he's poor because he's not got as much talent as Ben Arfa is quite strange. He's a decent player with promising raw talent and with years to improve. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Flash Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 The HBA thing was just a familiar comparison. We'll not be signing anyone as talented as him for a very long time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest zicomartin Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Pardew tapping up British players, now. He is trying to whip up a frenzy of excitement to cover his tracks. Its not working. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Wouldn't mind him for cheaper and rotated in the squad, not first choice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Wouldn't mind him for cheaper and rotated in the squad, not first choice. You could apply that with practically every player we have been linked with tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Next seasons side could look something like: Elliot Tavernier Williamson Colo Santon Sissoko Tiote Anita Jonas Goffran De Jong Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I think they'll have to loan De Jong out again, they'll never get a decent sum at the moment. I'd take him back as well tbh but we need to replace Remy as well which is the hard part. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I like Townsend, he's got plenty room to improve but he's certainly capable as he is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
