Lukas Podolski Thread

[Letters]

By that I assume you mean he jogs around the half way line casually observing the huge hole he has left at the back? Fucking awful non-player and anyone within 100 yards of him is going to look a bad player. Fucking, fucking terrible player, Just fucking terrible. He's awful. Total shit. Certainly a panic buy, he induces panic everywhere on the pitch. Basically a really poor player, fucking dreadful, a joke. Shit.

You don't rate him then?

Another gem uncovered by Wenger....whaddaguy!

Not sure how you came to that conclusion

[Fist of Lehmann]

Quite concerning really how he's already felt the need to publically state his preference to play up front.

A few games having to track back after Santos is enough to make anyone say fuck it.

I can just imagine a Santos/Arshavin axis.

Podolski does the best impression of the invisible man I've ever seen!

as average as I thought he would be. huntelaar would go the same way if we got him.

The signs were there from the Euros. He's not the sort of wide player that can play for us in a 4-4-3. When things get congested, we need direct wide players that will draw defenders towards them and attract attention so it opens up space in the middle. He doesn't do that and is quite possibly the worst player Wenger has bought to play down that side for the Pires role.

At least playmakers like Rosicky, Nasri and Arshavin were more creative when drifting in field and although they're not direct like Bale or Robben when it comes to dribbling but they at least have the dribbling skills. Pod looks limited on the ball, doesn't dribble and his passing is average at best. I have no idea why we'd buy him and play him out on the left wing. We'd be better off playing Gervinho there because he can at least dribble and often gets the ball to the byline to do cut back moves. It's an odd decision from Wenger.

Gervinho

This makes me feel sad.

It's an odd decision from Wenger.

Not his first, certainly won't be his last. How much does he actually get right these days?
