Disco Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I'd say he's forgotten about when you talk about 'great' PL strikers. Played in some mediocre Leeds and Boro teams too. Scored all types of goal too. He is, and has, an epic arse piece like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Brilliant return that like. Has to be the most under-rated striker in the Premier League era. 96 goals in 243 Premier League games considering the clubs he was at? Brilliant. He still went around for decent transfer fees mind.

Lush Vlad Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Yakubu, Cisse, Gyan, Odemwindie, there are so many more examples. I dunno why it happens but it does. Not trying to be racist either. My mum was born in Uganda. Also many of the cab drivers in NYC are From West Africa and they'll tell you the same thing. Their players show great promise and then fade and then start up again and so on. Been awhile since I've seen the old, "I can't be racist, I have a black mam" excuse. Astroblack was in an argument once and he said "How can I hate women (and blacks), my Mum's one". Yeah? There's a lot of truth in that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Loved Jimmy-Floyd as a player. Proper "laces" striker. None of this side foot shit. Freekicks. Penalties. 5 yards out. 25 yards out. Laces, every time. Great number of goals. Surely must be top 10 PL goalscorers. Think he came up in a time where there was a few great and brilliant #9 unlike now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Does the inconsistency only apply to players born in Africa? Or players raised in Africa? Or Africans in general?

Weirdly, one of my favourite non-NUFC Premier League goals is Hasselbaink scoring a half volley for Chelsea at Old Trafford. Such a lovely strike. Hasselbaink Vs Man Utd (23-9-2000) on youtube if anyone fancies a deeks JFH has managed to cause hilarity (that own goal at SJP) and total anger (that handball goal for Boro against us).

TaylorJ_01 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Remember a Jimmy free-kick where it had it's own physics. He hit it with the outside of his foot and it arced the complete opposite way. Was amazing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawK Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Kevin Nolan player manager at Orient till the summer. Good move for him ? Wonder if that dressing room effect he has will translate to management. I'm really curious to see how he does if he does go into management long term. The only other manager I know that would be similar would be Sherwood? But he was batshit insane. Hopefully Nolan will be a bit more controlled Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if that dressing room effect he has will translate to management. Interesting project for him. I'm really surprised he's not ended up with Fat Sam doing something with the Mackems. Be interesting to see how he does and which contacts he uses for loans etc. Have a feeling he'll do really well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minhosa Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Liverpool close to a deal for Alex Teixeira from Shakhtar. Much more of a Klopp-ite isn't he? Would spell the end for Benteke. It's crazy how Liverpool bought Carroll and then six months later wanted rid and they've basically done the same with Benteke. A load of money just wasted.
