Jack Wilshere

[keniget]

I don't quite know what it is but he reminds me of Rooney - perhaps it's that thuggish / whinging to the ref side to his game.

 

[Silver Sean]

He's a massive twat.

 

[gkmacca]

Good player, an absolute shit as a person.

 

[Ryan]

And he can't tackle, so yeah, perfect for Arsenal.

Tackling. The single most overrated attribute for a midfielder.

Xavi, Scholes, Pirlo. The 3 best ball playing midfielders in recent memory. Not fucking one of them could tackle a fish supper.

 

[gkmacca]

Well Scholes LOVED tackling. He used his supposed incompetence to maim a succession of opponents. Wilshere's problem is he seems to be either unable to release the ball quickly enough before being clattered, or he likes being clattered.

 

[redhorizon2]

AVOID not even for free. We would just pay for walking (more aptly, limping) sick note. We've had plenty of those don't add to the woes.

That's harsh on Pirlo - he wasn't that bad at winning balls in the midfield.

 

[mark1975]

You're right Ryan. Tackling, passing, creating, or scoring goals. Just a few more overrated attributes that, thankfully, our own Rolls Royce midfielder doesn't have to rely upon.

 

[Fabio]

That's not what he said Mark and you know it.

 

[mark1975]

If he wants to be condescending about practically every point he makes then I'm sure Ryan can take banter on the chin

Why does it seem like its ok for people to antagonise but its forbiden for people to respond?

 

[jexykrodic]

Allen's the key though.

Where was he antagonistic there

He made a point

One you disagree with

 

[Rosco]

Its an interesting one....

Because depending on your approach, tackling might be way down the list on how you win the ball back - if you focus on pressing opponents into mistakes / bad passes for example

 

[Jack D Rips]

He's been given a £40K fine for his anti Spurs chants.

Like I said, it was a bit of banter back. You keep going on about how I'm replying to people and then you overreact to stuff I post. So where are we going with this? Are you gonna jump on every reply I make? Ryan's big enough and bold enough to blow his own trumpet all over the forum and the tell us how right he is and how wrong we are, so we can't give it back every now and then now?

And as for me responding to stuff elsewhere, the likes of Jono and Sean can post the same shit daily on here, but God forbid should I pull them up on it after a while. Like I said at least be consistent, you're focusing more on me pulling them up than the shit that they are dragging threads down with in the first place.

This place is a fucking joke at times.

Speed it up then bitch.

[the count]

Where is Glock Rebel 23 these days?

shakes head smiley

 

[Aidan O' Neill]

He's very talented but inconsistent.

 

[refugee]

I'd take Ramsey over him any day.

Too many injuries, sh*t attitude, gets completely bypassed in too many games.

Another overhyped English player that doesn't live up to the name the London press gives him.

There is obvious talent there he's far too great a risk to ever want him.

On a side not its laughable that people claim Joe Cole was never brilliant. What a player at Chelsea he was.

Too many injuries and would rather have Ramsey........ Fucking hell

Would you put Wilshere in the Joe Allen bracket?
