Saints Top Trumps

[Saints_Alive]

So here we are again, the close season with very little Saints related news to talk about (apart from Ron's imminent contract extension signing pleeeease!)

So I thought we could have a bit of fun naming the values for an imaginary Saints top trumps pack.
You can do however many players you want and all the catagories are out of 100.
The last catagory is a special one that applies to only that player i.e

Cuco Martina: Banana Shot Bendability...100

Here is a list to copy and paste....

Crossing Tadic 85
Shooting Long 75
Heading VVD 80

Special Category For running like a duck: Long 100

 

[Clem Fandango]

VVD Special Ability: Bicycle kick.

 

[Piebacca]

Special Category: Bon mots.

Pie - 2000

 

[TheSecondStain]

Special Category - Pinging.

100 - The ability VVD has to suddenly pick a player out on the right touchline, while positioned on the left and deep in his own half, and... the commentator let's it pass entirely without question because he doesn't play for ManU, ManC, Arsenal, etc, etc, blah, blah, and therefore he must have done it by accident. All 3-4 times in the same match.

Another Special Category - Free Kicks.

100 - The ability VVD demonstrated for Celtic and has done for Saints, but has gone entirely unnoticed by pundits and commentators. Indeed, just the other day, VVD lined one up and the pundit said he'd blast it. Obviously doesn't realise that VVD can swerve and knuckle ball with the best of them. Just needs to get his eye in a few more times when JWP isn't on the pitch.

That just made me watch the Liverpool game again....starting from after Mane's missed penalty of course. Nice to think that that effectively put us through to the group stages and cost them a Europa place. Sweeet.
