Dan Deacon 53,079 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Do we think he would be banging in these chances we are not taking in the CL?How much of an impact will him not being available have on our CL final position? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandfather_Huck 5 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I doubt he'd have started any of our CL games in all honesty Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stardog 10 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 To be fair he would probably be warming the bench. No way Smith would play him and Miller together in the CL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
flecky1 4 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 HE would, should be our focal point! He would have had a hat trick tonight Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a life you sad cuntIf this is to me mate you are pointing the finger at the wrong place. I havent given anyone positive or negative feedback since the weekend and it was just after finding out what it was. I think its a pointless feature so dont use it.

Jamie1807 146 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Can't really say that he would have scored them easily, because he's not thereI think he would probably start if he was eligible for the Champions Leauge and not injured Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
flecky1 4 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 aye hod oan and we will spend 4m on a class act and no play him!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandfather_Huck 5 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 aye hod oan and we will spend 4m on a class act and no play him!! So you think that we would be playing 5-3-2 if Jelavic was eligible? Or that Miller would be dropped?Nonsense on both counts imo. We could take Miller off after 60-65 minutes right enough, or have the option not to play him if he wasn't fully fit, but no way would he not start if he was 100% fit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlenH79 42 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Jelavic would be, imo much better up front alone than Miller, he has It all - big, strong, skillfull, pacy and can finish well. He would have started instead of miller Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterD 7,414 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 From what iv seen id say Jelavic is a better finisher than Miller, but that doesn't mean he would have taken they chances either, Miller makes intelligent runs that Jelavic might not have made, even the best players in the world miss good chances and i hope we get right behind Miller at the weekend and he proves his worth once again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue corn flakes 1,282 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Is Jelavic barred from the eufa cup competition in the last 32? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would have started instead of millerI think that's the most likely outcome - that extra tiny slice of composure that comes with the better players is all that separated us from a truly memorable victory tonight. If I had to choose between Miller or Jela , I think Jela offers more than Miller can tbh.it's great we have the problem! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
