Before I got banned from the USA BigSoccer boards (for sticking up for my beloved Tigers after they were putting cr@p on us - and also for telling them a few home truths about Altidore as they were 'bigging' him up) someone berated me and stated that Altidore (wait for it) was going to be the next 'Black' Heskey. Gawd knows what colour he thought Emile was! Calling someone 'Black' is not racist it is when you accompany the word with a derogatory one (such as b*****d or c**t) that it becomes racist.
Bloody well hope this comes off can be a cracking player on his day! Would be like our Geo for this premier league campaign.
Could be, but we've been more heavily linked with Briand recently, so I'd be inclined to think it's him.
Hi, As a Lyon fan, let me give you some insight on Briand, who is a good and exemplary player by many aspects. Strong points: - Never gives up! Very generous player, runs all the time, I think he definitely has a playing style for PL. - Defends well. He more than often goes down the pitch to help fellow defenders. - Great conduct on and off the pitch. Always involved in the club's objectives, never complains about anything, even if he spends a few games on the bench - Not a good client for tabloids. - Can play as a striker or right winger. - Good header skills. Here is an example in a top French league game: http://youtu.be/KHhz6Z3WYL8?t=2m5s - Can score spectacular goals. Here is an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zvsQ_Jak10 - No known sex scandal so far lol Weak points: - Ball control skills should be improved - Never asks for a free kick when being fouled, maybe sometimes he should be more "vindictive" with the refs - Head shape lol Hope that helps.
I'm onto it.. one of my clients played for Nancy plus I'll be at Lyon vs Real Madrid pre-season friendly next wednesday so looking for info..
this has got my socks twitching a bit. he would appear to be similar to Aluko but the more talented, skilful and tricky forward players we have the better. Graham will score 20+ with just tap-ins.
brilliant signing if we pull it off. Positive news is his manager has told him to find another club. he's currently preseason training with Lyon in New York. west brim were interested in June but I we are the only ones in the running I can see this happening. he's a pacey and strong forward. him and Aluko would be insane. with graham up front to convert.
As a new poster (less than 10 posts) if you include a link in your posts (as the person questioning has done) it goes into auto-moderation. That means one of the moderators has to approve the post before it becomes visible to other users, and I only did that tonight when I came on here.
I've heard he's a bit inconsistent this Jimmy Briand. Can have a fantastic first 45 mins then goes off the radar for the second half. His manager needs to tell him "It's a game of two halves, Briand................"
There were some viruses, but there was also an issue with people posting advertising links all over the place.
youd hope so, but sunderland paid 6m for jozy , wont get my hopes up lol. Still weeks of the window left and no doubt we will get a great partner to go with graham
