Oh wow, highlights of Gervinho's career for his OLD CLUB. He's playing for Arsenal now, so showing him playing good for his club in FRANCE, means nothing. Do you want me to post a video of how good Santos was when he played in TURKEY?
It means plenty, because it largely explains why he was bought. It also proves he isn't ****. Not that I'm praising him (he's been very inconsistent), but I think people are understandably wound up by your hyperbole.
I raise your highlights from TWO YEARS AGO to the Present: [video=youtube;BKwnFU4wvaQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKwnFU4wvaQ[/video]
Wound up? Really? I could go into any Arsenal pub in North London, as well as the stadium on match day, and say GERVINHO IS ****, and I'd get no hassle. I don't know where you've been, but that's been happening for weeks at pubs and the ground, away grounds included.
I can bring highlight videos of many players playing well, does it mean we should sign em up? Highlight videos proves nothing. You can even make a highlight video of Bendtner!
Bendtner was never an excellent prospect, I never thought he was an excellent prospect, EVER. I saw his stats from Birmingham, and found nothing spectacular.
So what exactly is he then? lol! I'd love for you to explain what exactly Gervinho is? Other than having a big forehead.
You mean when he was 18, on loan and had been at Arsenal for two years? Did you ever see him before then?
A footballer with good ability who is in bad form maybe? He was very good at Lille the season before he was signed, and helped the team win the league. Either he doesn't have the ability to step up consistently - likely - or he's struggling mentally - equally likely. Neither you nor I will know. Looking deeper than proclaiming 'he's ****' is the mature way of going about things.
I saw some footage of him before his pre-loan days, I NEVER EVER THOUGHT Bendtner was a top prospect, never.
Nah- I'll give you a simpler MOTD analysis: "He's ****" (Alan Hansen voice) "Spot on Alan" (Lawro voice) "Yeah, yeah I think that's the case" (Shearer voice) "Well, there you have it" (Lineker voice)
Thinking isn't your strong point though, is it. Here is a fact for you. Wenger has forgotten more about managing a successful football team than you could ever hope to know. Here is another fact for you. You do not know what Wenger says to his players in private. getting the idea now? You know nothing
