Guest Sima Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Even mentioning Tino and Ameobi in the same sentence is a disgrace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Lazaru 0 Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 He was as inconsistent as Robert, maybe Robert got away with it more since he plays winger, Asprilla was a good finisher on his day but then again so is Ameobi. 29637[/snapback] You've hit the nail on the head. They're almost identical. Both struggled in the Premiership, both excelled in Europe, and both should have done/ be doing a lot better. Yet one is considered a hero, and the other one is "crap". 29739[/snapback] Robert is way ahead of Tino in terms of his contribution, for a midfielder he delivered a shitload of goals and direct assists which wins matches and he did it in europe and the premiership. Asprilla didn't score nearly enough for an international striker and missed so many chances to create goals by being selfish or over elaborating.

Optimistic Nut 9 Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Even mentioning Tino and Ameobi in the same sentence is a disgrace. 29784[/snapback] How? Similar scoring records in Europe & in the Premiership. Both have flashes of brilliance but more often or not flatter to deceive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar scoring records in Europe & in the Premiership. Both have flashes of brilliance but more often or not flatter to deceive. 29863[/snapback] Correct. If i had to choose one of them obviously i'd go with Tino, he is the better player, but as you point out (but people don't like to hear) they have similar goal records in europe, both go missing in the prem and flatter to decieve.

chip2388 0 Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Asprilla isn't that much better than Ameobi, if you look at the players around him a world class Shearer, Ferdinand, Pedro, Ginola, Lee where as Ameobi a fading Shearer, Bellamy, Robert, Solano. Asprilla easily had the better quality players around him and dare i say it even carried him in some games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut 9 Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 I think Shola would excel alongside Owen, Luque & Solano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
