"The sign of a poor WUM is that they don't know when to let go." Still think this is a HIAG account designed to bring Goon fishys to the defence of "one of their own" . But if not, the OP might have the intelligence of one of those dumb dogs who once having clamped their jaws down, get clubbed to death and the brain cannot process the signals that say "let go" .
I think you'll find Spurs had absolutely zilch to do with his 'early progression'. They tend to wait and see who Saints find and develop first.... Cheers. ps Hands up who knew that Martin Chivers was a Saints academy product?
I meant if we are old enough (and you are ) we would know he came from Saints. I only know from history books
Very true. I can only hope you're working extra time developing the next global superstar. Now if I were a small, spiteful person, I would start a "Robin van Persie and Cesc Fabregas Appreciation Thread" on the Goon's board. It is remarkable how the two have won titles and emerged as international stars after dropping Arsenal like a bad transmission. That header by RVP was simply stunning! He looked like he was flying out of the shackles of his Arsenal past. But I'm too generous-spirited and large-minded a person to do that.
He demonstrated one thing he learned at Arsenal with his first goal - a dive in the penalty area that even Howard Webb wouldn't be conned by...
We signed a young fullback/winger, who would get knocked over by a stiff breeze and sold a world class forward, who is as strong as he is fast.
