Stewart Downing

[Electric ~soul~]

Is this bloke any good?

 

I read this morning that Spurs are after him, plus ex-gyppo Matthew Upson.

[gertcha EFM]

I think he is when he's fit. He's been struggling with an injury for a while I think.

 

The figure I saw quoted of over £7m was quite high I thought.

[Electric ~soul~]

Better him than Parker and Forsell, I'd have thought. Can't believe Spurs were after those two in return for Arnesen.

[gertcha EFM]

Yeah, I'd have chosen Lampard and Terry. Maybe Robben if they didn't want to lose both of them.

[Electric ~soul~]

Nah. Robben is sh*t.

 

Wouldn't have minded a cheeky bid for Joe Cole! Annoying thing is, we could well have got him at the start of last season when he wasn't playing.

 

Any news on whether Rio has signed for the Blues yet??

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

Robben is not s*it

[Electric ~soul~]

Well, he's not exactly Henry or Van Nistelrooy, is he?

 

Or Defoe, for that matter.

[gertcha EFM]

I have a feeling he is going to be one of those injury prone players.

 

In the Jamie Redknapp mould.

Can't believe West Brom made a bid for Kanoute. Find that a touch cheeky!!

 

Looks like Scott Parker is going to Newcastle.

Well he wouldn't be, what with him being a winger and all that.

[Electric ~soul~]

Yeah. He's so good, I don't even know what fking position he plays.

 

He's average, mate.

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

I'll remind you of that when he rips our boys to shreads next season <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> He's fcking quality!

[Electric ~soul~]

And you've seen him play how many times, Thornsy.

 

You sound like a typical armchair football fan, mate.

[EFM The Firm, The Voice]

And how many times have you seen him?????

 

I knew how good he was last year when he was at PSV. Put it this way if he is so bad then how come he'll walk into the Chelsea team ahead of Joe "I'd love to see him at WHL" Cole

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

He's average, mate. Very average. He'll do nothing next season.

 

You in work tonight??

How did you know? I don't recall you popping over to Eindhoven on a regular basis to scout this bloke.

Since when have you been such an expert on Dutch football?

Besides. Even Emile Heskey could be a superstar in the Dutch league!!

Armchair fan.

[YELLOW]

I think he was at Feyenoord last season rather than PSV.

[gertcha EFM]

Nah, he was at Chelsea last season. Thornsy told me.

[YELLOW]

Meant season before last.
