I agree he does have some great skill, but he does have some moments of poor control. All I was saying is that it is not all 'great ball control', that's all.

I agree he does have some great skill, but he does have some moments of poor control. All I was saying is that it is not all 'great ball control', that's all. I wasnt trying to argue he has great control really (just saw it in the paper this morning) but it is noticeable that it has improved in his last few games. I remember reading a review of him on a european footie site just after we got him and i think it must have been based on his performances in the french league as the review said he was highly skilful and had a great control (along those lines). Yet it was obvious when he arrived he couldnt keep it within a 2 metre radius with his first touch. I also heard him on century before the game (funny accent) and he sounds happy to be here and enjoying his football. Hence he is showing what he is capable of. I think we will continue to get value out of him. He also didnt go down like a sack of shite that much last night either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 36626 Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Looked hilarious in his post match interview. Baldy head and these two very animated bushy eyebrows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetleftpeg 0 Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I think Sibierski is going to go down as one of those Cult Hero's we get from time to time. Came here for nowt as a Man City reserve who hadn't played for a long time and had a fairly shit goalscoring record yet the bloke is playing at times pure quality football.

Gemmill 36626 Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I'm really pleased for the bloke. He'll have seen all the press and fan comment scoffing at his signing when he got here, and he's just knuckled down, never complained when he hasn't got a game, and pretty much always delivered when he has. He's no world beater, and I'd like to think that after the January window, he'd be a bit further down the pecking order for a first team place than he is currently, but I've got no complaints about him at all.

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 His work rate is excellent, he fights for every ball, and I think he's playing with pure confidence at the moment on the basis he can't believe his luck. Indian Summer if you will. My only criticism of him is that he can be woeful in the air in certain games, but I thought he was superb in the air last night tbf. Keep it up the Seb!

ChezGiven 0 Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Aye, i heard that the City fans siad he had a head like a 50p piece or something. Its been his biggest strength for us and not just his goals but receiving the ball long he has shown good control with his head. I just see him as a big bonus for us this season and his presence doesnt complicate the need for another young long term buy up front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Lazaru 0 Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 The Sib has done everything you could have asked of him really and more. He's playing as a target man for us, working his arse off and battling away. He's scored more than his share of goals and set up a few chances for others as well, and he scores goals when it counts to win matches or get us back into them. He's clearly loving it here as nothing was expected and he's just having a great time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
