inspirational figure. he really is.

 

looking at the way he talks to our players throughout the game.

 

the way he barracks the opposition

 

the way he generally just struts about with his chest out, its great to see.

 

HOWEVER...i think weve been so starved of proper professionals over the years that its actually a little sad how we - i included - have latched onto this guy as being some kind of messiah

 

i want to hammer home that im happy hes at our club and that hes our captain, but...im sorry to say, he looks like a shadow of a player out on the park

 

the game seems to continually pass him by and my question is....can we afford that?

an incredibly ignorant post

 

was Alukos magic against Bayern not welcome then?

 

may i inform you that teams need players like that if you wanna get anywhere

 

for every hartley, you need an aluko

 

Then ignorance is indeed bliss.

Not well said at all, comparing greats like Bell, Strachan etc with Zerouali to try and demonstrate a point that even began as nonsense, is, well nonsense.

 

But like most of your threads MT, it is all about opinions, mainly yours.

 

are you FREAKIN kiddin me?

 

i was not originally comparing them ability wise, which i thought would have been obvious

 

i was using them as examples of another type of player who doesnt contribute to the game all that much, but is capable of genius and something that the other 10 players on the park arent capable of

You have outlined the sae old shite, I don't think anyone even remotely agreed with it, but by all means, regurgitate the same thing over and over again for whatever effect you like.

 

Better still, bring up Zero again, that always does the trick.

Genius.

Strachan and Bell etc did not contribute much to the games they played at all.

 

Genius.

 

Bell was mainly used as sub or for certain games as he could not contribute 90 minutes

But for the 10th time how thick are you

we were not comparing these players for who is best but comparing then as that type of player who can turn a game with a touch of genius

but at the same time might not turn it on the rest of the game.

I mentioned some very skilful players at the club as an example

 

anyway that was not the question it was

CAN WE AFFORD TO CARRY HARTLEY WHEN HE IS NOT CONTRIBUTING IN A FOOTBALLING SENSE

 

 

my answer for now is yes but some of you don't like the question so are trying to derail the topic as usual

 

i didnt fucking mention strachan or bell once you absolute cretin

 

you really, really are a clown

in fact do you know what word best suits how i feel about you right now?

 

a turd

 

pure and simple

You are a fucking tube!!! 

i dont believe youre as thick as youre making out in this thread, instead im choosing to believe youre the ringleader on here, the LS if you will.

 

its your job to drum up interest and keep the posts coming

 

dont worry, ill help you out there, because ill continually offer "outside the box" views on all things AFC and ill continously pummel you and anyone else in an engagement of differing opinions

To be honest you are both fucking wind up merchants only problem now is you are both on the same forum

and so it begins...

haha why are you turning on me now?

MT, do you realise that you have yet to find one person to actually agree with you on Hartley yet in this thread?! 

 

You are talking absolute rubbish.

I've been turded, you look like lining up yourself one.

 

And Khaledonia, it's a bitch eh?

what, so you think because the majority dont agree, then i must be wrong?

 

i do feel that m original point has been dragged and stretched all over the place, but the fact remains

 

he's not anywhere near the player he was and i seriously question the guys physical contribution to our games

 

if no-one else notices that as theyre so blinded by his inspiration, thats fine

if no-one else notices that as theyre so blinded by his inspiration, thats fine

 

 

That's exactly what it is, I've been blinded by his inspiration!! Brilliant! I may not read anything better all day.

Everyone agrees that he isn't the player he was, but we shouldn't be blinded by that (like you are).  Again, you come off with your holier than thou attitude to judging players' ability though.  Out of interest, how many games have you been to this season to make that judgement?  Who in our squad should be there before him?  Is his contribution so little in your opinion that a central midfielder should be top of our shopping list?

 

what, so you think because the majority dont agree, then i must be wrong?

 

When our managers disagree and when the majority of support turning up week in week out disagree then yes, you are wrong and appear to be attention seeking with "controversial" opinions again.

im not bein funny mate

 

the fact no-one else sees what im saying is not remotely surprising

 

im incredibly, incredibly perceptive, thats how i do.

 

dont feel bad, im sure youre all good at something else

yawn yawn yawn

 

if i voice my opinion, im attention seeking?

 

suck me.

 

im right, 100%.

 

it doesnt matter how many games ive been to or how many games ive seen, so shove that argument right up your arse

 

ive seen enough to form my opinion, simple.

Incredibly perceptive? I'm not really convinced by that . . . .

 

I'm probably suffering from inspirational blindness.

You are the boring one MT...
