Leek Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 As much as I want him to stay at Nice and continue spear heading their fairytale rise up Ligue 1, it would be an incredible fuck you to Pardew and Bruce if he went onto someone like Atletico and proved it in La Liga and CL with them.

SEMTEX Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I don't see how I can benefit from using my eyes to evaluate Hatem, when I could be evaluating him by incorrectly referencing Emmanuel Riviere's goal record in the French league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 The bottom line in all of it is that every argument on our side should just be to use your eyes. It's shit that we even have to back it up with stats and examples when it's so fucking mind-numbingly obvious to anyone who even has the remotest idea about football. When he's beats two people like it's nothing and shifts it onto his left foot to have a crack at goal what are these people thinking? "Here he is again the lazy cunt with his tricks and pace, if this hits the post and we lose possession I'll be fucking fuming." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Here mate, Steve Bruce didn't think he was all that so why are we even having this discussion? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Would've single handedly kept us up this season. We've spaffed tens of millions 'replacing him' whilst following that up with giving away said replacements. You, genuinely, couldn't make it up.

Confirmation bias though init, for every time he'd single handedly win us a game he'd maybe be caught in possession, or run the ball out of play. So they somehow forget the 4 thunder-bastards he scored in his last dozen games but have vivid flashbacks of him sending the ball out for a throw-in with a dodgy touch. It's completely weird but that's how it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Strangely losing the ball by humping it up the line is absolutely fine in England. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I'm still a big fan of the kick-off swiftly followed by twatting the ball as far up the pitch as possible, and out for a throw-in. So many teams are so good at it. Still livid that Sammy actually scored from that shit once. Ruined it completely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattoon Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Strangely losing the ball by humping it up the line is absolutely fine in England. Hoofing it from the halfway line to their 'keeper is fine, just don't dare take it into the box and have a genuine shot at goal or lose it, that's unforgivable!

AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Just to gain territory I suppose, move the play up the pitch. It's properly stupid. I've started watching Bromley a fair bit and the stuff they do is crazy. The weird thing is that some of the players are quite good, they're just paralysed by fear.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Where do we think he will be playing next season? Not sure TBH, he might even stay at Nice. He really needs to be careful to get a manager who will trust him 100%. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattoon Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Colback played it. He was probably aiming for a throw in tbf. Yeah it was Colback from the kick off and Sammy who scored in 7 seconds, 2014 vs Spuds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeEd32 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 The most joy I've gotten from supporting this club in the last decade is down to this man. The transfer saga The Everton goal West Brom away and the whole 5th place run-in The Bolton goal The myth of the Blackburn goal as we waited for footage. Somehow it lived up to the hype.

John P Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Colback played it. He was probably aiming for a throw in tbf. Yeah it was Colback from the kick off and Sammy who scored in 7 seconds, 2014 vs Spuds. I remember thinking at the time that it was by no means a well directed pass. If I remember rightly he seemed to 'hook' it and it just happened to land in the path of Sammy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We repeated it every match afterwards with Colback being nowhere near getting the ball to a teammate on any of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 I used to like Sir Bobby's in 2000 with Shearer, Ferguson & Speed all over on the left-hand side and would get someone to play a long diagonal out to their flank to win the aerial ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Booked up for Nice v St Etienne on 7 May, their last home game I think. Cue Ben Arfa getting injured before then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
