If Solano had played for Man Utd he'd be considered one of the PL greats Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean my fave all-time NUFC player would probably be Andy Cole, yet Shearer IS the legend, the better player and did more for us. It’s about fan favourites too. I just don’t consider the likes of Robert a legend here. He’d probably be GOD himself if he had of played for the mackems mind who reserve legend status for absolute no-bodies like Ball which again goes back to how such titles are awarded to players based more on what they mean to someone the most than what they actually merit in the annal’s of the club’s history overall.

Robert with Bellamy was the biggest transformation of a team that we've not seen since Eddie came along. Their pace took us from lower midfield to title challengers in a year. Both hugely effective, but Robert was far more memorable due to being terrible or spectacular. Bellamy probably had an overall better contribution but barring a game or two it wasn't as obvious Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holloway Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Incredible how many rival (online) fans have got him down as ' mediocre, good engine but not much else, Pirlo lookalike and that's where it ends' blah blah etc. Don't profess to know that much about him but he's clearly got way more to offer than these lifting opinions. I wonder if our online fanbase invites this kind of ridicule in our appraisal of rivals new signings? RAWK by far the worst I've read mind, their comments are laced with bile.

Fereday was one of the quickest wingers in England on his day. The only chink in his armour was when he actually had the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
