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...

Hughesy Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I like Townsend as a player - he certainly has the attributes to improve with good coaching. Oh - I see the problem there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 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. That's the story of this forum though, either you're great or you're rubbish. Nothing in between. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Icke - Son of God Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 He had a relatively short run of fantastic form earlier in the season but since then every time I've seen him he's been gash. There's next to nowt to his game once he's shown on the inside. We've needed a winger who can actually get to the byline and cross a ball for a few years now, so this make absolutely no sense.

David Icke - Son of God Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 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. We've got average coming out of our fucking ears. We're fine for average. No more average. We need genuine quality to replace Cabaye and Remy.

TaylorJ_01 Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 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. This. While he's not a world-beater, I rate him.

Kanj Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 We lack true wingers with pace, he'd solve that (Townsend). Under a different manager of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Townsend as in the left-footed player who always cuts in and shoots with his left and hits the first defender but scored in the few games where people hadn't seen through him yet? I'd say no. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
