        I aren't sure he has failed to take his chances (General Chat) - pants, Nov 29, 15:40:23
        
        A better example may be judging Peter Crouch at Villa (n/m) (General Chat) - Steve in Holland, Nov 29, 15:36:30
      - Yes. (General Chat) - InTheAbsenceOfAHorse, Nov 29, 15:10:19

        this thread is very amusing now (n/m) (General Chat) - pants, Nov 29, 15:46:21
        
        perhaps it might have escaped your knowledge that he's a left winger as well (n/m) (General Chat) - pants, Nov 29, 15:42:29
        
        Wasn't what they lauded him as when they bought him. (n/m) (General Chat) - Steve in Holland, Nov 29, 15:43:51
        
        Ade Akinbiyi (n/m) (General Chat) - InTheAbsenceOfAHorse, Nov 29, 15:40:27
        
        What about Adi Akinbiyi? (n/m) (General Chat) - pants, Nov 29, 15:40:58
        
        An example of a shit player bought time and time again for far more than he is worth. (General Chat) - InTheAbsenceOfAHorse, Nov 29, 15:41:36
        
        Well done (General Chat) - pants, Nov 29, 15:45:24
        
        Whereas your argument is (General Chat) - InTheAbsenceOfAHorse, Nov 29, 15:47:52
        
        Yes of course? (General Chat) - pants, Nov 29, 15:50:10
        
        What facts? (General Chat) - InTheAbsenceOfAHorse, Nov 29, 15:54:23
        
        You really are just being stupid now (n/m) (General Chat) - pants, Nov 29, 15:58:17
        
        No. (General Chat) - InTheAbsenceOfAHorse, Nov 29, 16:00:10
        
        Ok, I'll ride, lets take Mallorca, qualified for the champions league whilst he was there (General Chat) - pants, Nov 29, 16:03:00
        
        So Deportivo was all about Luque? (General Chat) - InTheAbsenceOfAHorse, Nov 29, 16:13:37
        
        You brought up the theory that the team might be better than the player (General Chat) - pants, Nov 29, 16:18:46
        
        Now i've no idea what you're on about. (General Chat) - InTheAbsenceOfAHorse, Nov 29, 16:24:11
        
        What I said is he's played for teams, and they've done well when he has (General Chat) - pants, Nov 29, 16:39:41
        
        You don't get it do you? (General Chat) - InTheAbsenceOfAHorse, Nov 29, 16:46:15

        Eto joined at the end of the season they qualified for Europe (n/m) (General Chat) - pants, Nov 29, 16:50:52
        
        Not true. He's also good because teams have paid lots of money for him. (n/m) (General Chat) - Steve in Holland, Nov 29, 15:49:30
        
        Of course by this logic he is only a fraction as good as Nicolas Anelka (n/m) (General Chat) - Steve in Holland, Nov 29, 15:51:43
        
        Nicholas Anelka is a class forward, better than luque (n/m) (General Chat) - pants, Nov 29, 15:53:49
        
        and Hernan Crespo, and Robbie Keane (n/m) (General Chat) - Steve in Holland, Nov 29, 15:52:59
        
        Both those players are class forwards (n/m) (General Chat) - pants, Nov 29, 15:54:04
        
        He is one of those players who was never gonna be any good in England (General Chat) - DiscoDaleGordon, Nov 29, 15:14:33
        
        Head isn't right (n/m) (General Chat) - Brom, Nov 29, 15:18:25
        
        First name isn't right (General Chat) - Tricky Hawes, Nov 29, 15:20:51
        
        Albert Ferrer (n/m) (General Chat) - pants, Nov 29, 15:22:27
        
        ha ha. OK that'll do (General Chat) - Tricky Hawes, Nov 29, 15:23:27
