NJS 4389 Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Funny how the following season when we didn't see much of Robert, we actually were nowhere near 5th spot. 51917[/snapback] Wasn't there a stat that he featured in all but 3 games under Souness and only a couple, if any, played more games under him?

Howaythelads 0 Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 n'zogbia has his limitations,bit naive and not as strong as he will be,but surely more effective than robert has been for the last 2 years. htl mate,you quote facts/stats,you know how stats can be manipulated!! 51916[/snapback] I don't quote stats or facts really, just opinions. If someone who does look at stats checked into some of the stuff I've posted though I think some opinions may be found to be fact. For example, Robert creating and scoring more goals than the rest of our midfielders combined. But he's shit because Souness said so, because he tells the truth to the press and because he doesn't tackle like Dave Mackay. Fine. We all want different things. I want a winning team, some others want a load of grafters. I can live with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44935 Posted November 8, 2005 Author Share Posted November 8, 2005 Not a pick of bother that lad. And the best left winger in the club's history, statistically speaking, setting aside mood swings...etc. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adios 717 Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 Does he not realise, all he had to do to make Souness look a twat was put in some effort and use that God given talent to do well at Pompey. Souness is totally vindicated for getting rid. Robert = Village Idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 On a serious note, when he first came to the Toon, he was probably worth all the baggage. I don't think he is anymore and that's the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he is anymore and that's the problem. 53743[/snapback] Agreed, that's why I'm so annoyed. If he'd even put in half the effort most players do, he would now be the best winger in the Premiership by a country mile. Now he's just unwanted at Pompey. Well done Laurent. I remember reading how he excelled at karate. horse-riding and football as a boy but decided the team sport would be the most challenging. Just no-one told him football was the team sport, apparently. Fuck, I sound as bitter as an Alan Oliver piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seething, I expect. 53745[/snapback] Aye, because I'm so obsessed with what our ex-players do. Seriously, we all know he is tempermental. But I can think of several players still at the club with worse attitude problems. It's a balance. Like Alex says, its up for debate whether he is worth the bother or not. But since he won't play for us again, I'm really not that bothered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
