Is our most improved player from last season and over the course of this. . .would still love us to go for Vertonghen and give AW a headache about the quality he has to choose from rather than the dross he has when one of the first teamers go down!

Yeah he's been very good but he's not our player of the season (perhaps most improved player of the season). He has been part of a defence that has conceded 47 goals, and while he can't be individually blamed for most of them, he's still got to take some collective responsibility.
Clearly RVP's been our player of the season. People do tend to go to extremes tbh, at the start of the season he's better than Messi, now because he had an indifferent April people are not even listing him as their best player of the season, maybe to try and prove we're not a one man team. While it's true we're not a one man team, without his goals and assists we'd be languishing in 10th most probably.
Kos, Kos, Kos is a super star,
He can kick the ball far,
He is a wicked play-ar,
He was signed by Weng-ar,
He is better than Cygan
And Chamakh is shit...
Tim Rice has a rival. . .:bow:Quote:

Okay but when you look at the fact that he's been involved in 42 of our 71 goals (close to 60%) you realise that without him we really would be a shit position. None of our other strikers could have scored most of the goals because they require not just technique but intelligent movement, which neither Chamakh nor Park possess.Quote:
