Optimistic Nut

http://forum.psg.fr/fr/supporters/forumv2/...?messid=8245154 So far after two responses... "Ginola without a doubt! What a player!!!" and... "Ginola, easily!!!"

I might actually put this question to PSG fans on their forum. Would be interesting to see their opinions of the two.

Mainly because Ginola played in the better side and media darlings Spurs. I don't think he'd have got anywhere near the hype had he played in the 2001-3 side.

I remember about a month into the season Viana played a brilliant second-half for their first-side against England also. (Think it was Bowyer's one England cap too). Remember one moment late on where Viana sprayed a 60-yard ball flank-to-flank, and Andy Gray just said, "That wasn't Viana again was it?". Could have been a quality player.

Don't see any reason why he shouldn't play.

I think they should make Rooney play.

I don't know why people are surprised at Taylor, he's regularly rash.

When Ginola went missing, he'd produce nothing, even when Robert went missing (which was 90% of the time), he'd still come up with something.

Put Robert in the Keegan side and we'd have won the title.

And Robbie Elliott was better in the 96/97 season.

But how did you react to the Shearer story?

I'd imagine with no Gerrard, he'll have a good chance of starting on Wednesday. Although the chances are he'll go with Wright-Phillips.

Do you think he'd have been good enough to get in our current side?

1. Just had Sunday lunch...mmmm 2. Just paid my deposit to do a 4-week language course in Bordeaux next summer. 3. Just watched Extras which I taped on Thursday night. 4. Thought of a title for my Final Year Spanish dissertation. 5. Getting ready for work.

Wednesday will be their biggest test imo. If they can follow up a win at home to France with a postitive result in Kiev, they're to be taken seriously. Could do with Italy slipping up again soon though.

If they can win or even get a point on Wednesday in the Ukraine I can see them finishing 2nd.

And what a f*cking goal from Leighton Baines. Similar to that famous one John Harley scored for Fulham (?) several years back.

Was going on about how you could compare a few England Under 21 players with the seniors... "Anton with Rio obviously, Taylor's a bit like Terry...and Milner's a bit similar to Gerrard".

Disagree there. Neville would be perfectly suited to a central three alongside Rio & Terry.

Yep, not once have I seen Anton and thought he's going to be any better than Bramble.

Can't stand West Ham and hate Pardew with a passion. But these two are definitely being made scapegoats. Perhaps if the likes of Konchesky, Ferdinand, Gabbidon, Reo-Coker, Harewood, Mullins etc. weren't strutting around as if they'd made it, just on the back of one decent season, they'd be in a better position. Fact is, they're an average team with or without the Argies...even we p*ssed all over them away from home.

The free-kick wasn't too dissimilar to the one he conceded against Robert in the FA Cup a few years back.

Slightly less dismal than what Liverpool were in their 2-0 win against the same potential relegation fodder.

Exactly. Piss poor header for their second goal and should have been sent-off for handball...
