Nate 0 Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Three managers must be wrong, Chopra is better than Ameobi Three managers can be wrong, though. Chopra has really impressed me this season and i have no faith whatsoever that Ameobi could drop down to the Championship and score not only the number of goals, but quality of goals Chopra has. It's not as if he was ever given a sustained run in the team here and actually proven not to be good enough either, who knows how he would have faired given the same amount of opportunities as Shola.

On the other hand I couldn't see Chopra scoring as regular in the prem as Shola did since Roeder took over/Shearer stopped playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meshman 0 Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 (edited) 1 - If chops wanted to play for newcastle he should have accepted the 1 yr deal and fought for his place 2 - it dont matter how good/bad he is compared to shola he would have got games if he`d stayed 3 - id rather have a geordie thats proud to play in the shirt but unproven in the premiership than a spanish waiter who cant hit the onion bag sitting on the bench and pocketing OUR money. chopra > luque tbh Edited February 3, 2007 by meshman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sniffer 0 Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 Chopra is 21, maybe 22 now. Never had the opportunity to develop. Ameobi was given many opportunities and we currently have a slow 25 year old donkey. Another good move by the Toon. Nothing to do with that sad waste of money that apparently sulks around the ground, luque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fop 1 Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 I think he should have been given as much a chance as Shola got, and he wasn't not even close. Does it not make you wonder why other managers chose Shola over Chopra though? I doubt it was over lack of work rate or anything like that. I think the saw potential in him and he offered things our other strikers didn't, Chopra was far from complete (arguably he's only really becoming fully rounded now), but equally was never really given the same chances. Maybe he wasn't good enough, hopefully some day soon we'll see him in action in the Premeirship and see whether he is or is not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggio 0 Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 The 3 joint top scorers in the Championship are Michael Chopra, Robert Earnshaw and Grzegorz Rasiak, all have played in the Premiership and none have looked anything above average.

Guest alex Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Chopra was never good enough. Just because he is banging in the goals in a vastly inferior league doesn't mean he is any better. Nowhere near as good as Shola as well. Exactly. Amazing that those calling for Chopra to have been given a chance, are mainly those who think Luque should fuck off Not me; I'd love Luque to fuck off though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I don't necessarily consider Chopra as a player of Premierleague standard... As for Luque, I think you can have somewhat different expectations from a Spanish ex-international who is picking up enormous wages every week.

Scottish Mag 3 Posted February 24, 2007 Author Share Posted February 24, 2007 Yet another two for Chopra tonight. Whilst I have no idea if he could cut it at the level of the premiership I have no doubt people will continue to argue hes shite whilst creaming over Nugents goals...
