jdocherty72 215 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Doubt he'll ever play for City again while Mancini is in charge.Didn't Adebayor & 'Arry both come out and say they want to make it permanent anyway? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GF John 169 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Modric Modric is a water carrier. A very, very good one, but a water carrier nonetheless.Never seen him as someone to unlock a defence or arrive late in the box, although he's well capable of both. He tends to just keep things ticking over in the midfield and maintain possession at all times. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan_1 1,136 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Adebayor has been sensational for Tottenham this season since arriving, every bit as vital as Scott Parker has been.Great player. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GF John 169 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Re: Modric comments - Some people just don't understand football.If you're referring to my Modric comments, which I assume you are since they're the only ones of substance in the thread, then it's you who doesn't understand football.

Shyne10 0 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Great season from Van Persie... if hes fit until end of the season he could easily hit 30 goals & 15 assists, that would be fantastic! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
derek1872 548 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I like Modric, rated him before he came to the English Premier League. Albeit he's a very good player, I do think there's substance in claiming he gets overrated at times. Don't think he was nearly as good as what some people suggested over the last couple of years prior to this season.Not very creative or scores many goals, what he is very good at is keeping possession and something that he probably doesn't get enough credit for is his ability to break up play. Not good enough for Barcelona as what I've read on here and elsewhere or better than Fabregas, all IMO of course!For having this fantastic passing range or intelligence that we regularly hear about, Rooney doesn't have many assists!Rangers_no1 in having a go at Rooney shocker!He is apparently having a poor season and yet still sits 3rd in the list. Can't be bad. Not many other strickers on the list have more assists than him. Assists are for wingers and creative midfielders. Forwards score goals. World class forwards like RVP do both!

papaguy51 912 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Pointing out spelling mistakes and avoiding the football means that the other guy has won the debate.Regardless, I think Modric is only overrated if you think he's a Mata/Silva type of assister. He's not, he's more of a bread and butter type of English midfielder who can occasionally do something that makes you scratch your head.He's not as good as Silva.

derek1872 548 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Derek failing to understand the point and posting irrelevant aspects, well I never.......In what way did he manage to fuck it up himself?Your point is Wayne Rooney should have more assists because of his passing ability. Shite point to be fair as he scores as many as he does.I said strickers he must have read it as stickers hence his very witty panini album retort.
