Barney 0 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 As someone says. He might be no better than Milner. He has pace, which we need, but still can't cross the ball. A few spurs mates have told me he's an utter prick in the dressing room too. Spurs fans don't seem too bothered about losing him either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Surprised we aren't in for SWP if the rumours about him going to Portsmouth for £10m are true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fop 1 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 We've been crying out for some more pace in the team for some time now, it has to be said. I quite like Lennon as well. Lack of end product is a problem though. This "lack of end product" malarky sounds too like a self-fulfilling prophecy. Perfect players are very rare. I wouldn't mind someone like Lennon who might disappoint with his end product often enough, but who can make up for it with other attributes. He'll generally unsettle defences with his pace and win freekicks with his dribblings that only can get stopped by foul. Yep. Bellamy and Dyer (at his best) had no end product at all, but their pace scared the shit out of defences and made a lot of space for Shearer. Owen would benefit from those kinds of clever runs from the likes of Lennon. In fairness it does take a lot more skill to make up for a lack of pace than it does pace to make up for a lack of skill, and it keep the opposition on the back foot, especially if you've then got pacey players to move with them (Martins) and/or clever players to take advantage of it (Owen, Viduka) - Robson's team, of course, had both. I'd still be hoping we'd be able to go a tad higher in filling some other positions though. On that, I'm just up to the chapter in SBR's biography where he is talking about Dyer and how he had nothing but pace and an average 5m pass and how important he was to the team. I never rated Dyer but compared to the pedestrian midfield we've had to watch since SBR was sacked, I'd be enthused if we had a player that was pace and a 5m pass tbh. I was just wondering if we should make an approach to Dwain Chambers myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
