Howaythelads 0 Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 i think luque will play up front alongside owen if we play 4-4-2, with n'zogbia on the wing. if we play 4-3-3, he'll play wide on the left. he is a striker that can also play out wide. i don't expect him to be much better than robert at tracking back mind - he'll probably be better used just behind owen in the same role rooney plays for england. 50200[/snapback] No, he is a left sided attacking player who can also play out and out striker. Apparently. I think you'll find Mr Souness will use Owen and Dyer up front with Luque on the left. Just my opinion. 50201[/snapback] well from what i've read both souness and luque himself regard him more as an attacker than a midielder... 50206[/snapback] HTL knows better though, obviously. 50210[/snapback] I see, somebody doesn't agree with you so you patronise them with the 'they think they know better', cowardly childish argument. Explain the 'better threat down the left from a proper player' comments. I'm waiting......... dum di dum di dum dum...... waiting......... waiting.........

Like people now seem to think Zog is a left winger because he's had a few games there despite him apparently being quoted in the summer claiming he's always played in the centre? Is that what you mean? BTW I didn't call you a nob. I told you to stop acting like one. You read it but you clearly took no notice.

zico martin 85 Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 HTL, I dont claim to know more than you and if luque has been signed to replace Robert rather than the hole left following bellamy departure I'll be disappointed ( and not only because its mean you ar right! ) I think the midfield personnel we have at the club could do the job but I fear we are woefully lightweight upfront, hence my assumptions earlier. chopra was crap last night mind wasn't he?

luckypierre 0 Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 to be fair Luque has played LM for us so far hasnt he? I reckon he's been bought for both if that makes any sense. On the left to replace Robert but an eye on the fact he can also play as a striker too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been under the impression from the start that Luque was signed to replace Robert. If I'm wrong then I'll apologise for sure. Where did you get the idea he was signed to replace Bellamy? Regarding the current midfield players. Counting Luque as a striker means we don't have the quality (assuming Luque is worth the fee) in midfield. Zog isn't ready yet imo, although I do see him becoming a really good player for us and it is true that I read somewhere he reckoned he was a central player, not an attacking left sided player.
