    Yeh, Welbeck did get in the English team of the year as well.

    Superstar

    Well it does, not all of the best strikers can pick the ball up 30 yards from goal dribble past everyone and slot it in

    If strikers had to do everything themselves Cavani wouldn't have half the goals he has
     
  3. Furball G Furball

    And if Cavani was a shit finisher then his team-mates would have less assists.

    Goat, you should try and get in touch with the Real Madrid staff and tell them about Isco only having 1 assist. They could've saved all their time scouting him and watching him play if they knew he only had 1 assist.

    The Welsh clubs both sign new strikers. Bony to Swansea for £12m, and Andreas Cornelius to Cardiff for £8m. Great signing for Swansea, that.

    and looking at shelvey for 4.5 mill appaz

    Be wary the Eredivisie top scorer though, so many flatter to deceive.
     
  8. Riddy JH Ridd

    alfonso alves...
     
  9. Eds E Ames

    For every Alves there's an RVP, Suarez, Huntelaar, Sneijder, Robben, etc.
     
  10. Riddy JH Ridd

    none of those quite had the season Alves had prior to coming to the prem. did he score 38 goals in 34 league matches?
     
  11. Eds E Ames

    I'm not really sure what your point is?
     
  12. SuperNova SJ Nova

    Suarez had 35 goals in 33 games in his last full season in Holland
     
  13. Riddy JH Ridd

    tbh im not sure what your point was? KATA said so many flatter to deceive, i pointed out the most obvious one. you then stated that quality players have come from eredivisie (but no one was debating that in the first place). i then stated Alves cause he came to 'Boro with a huge rep after scoring all those goals but fell flat on his face.

    Cant really judge until they get here.
     
  14. Riddy JH Ridd

    alves had 34 in 31 in 2006. that was his best season (according to wiki anyway)

    Eds was arguing that some players from the Eridivisie do turn out to be gun even though some have failed.

    Your reply was irrelevant.
     
  16. Eds E Ames

    Fair enough. I think Bony will probably struggle in his first season but he's a really good player and he'll kick on at some point. Alves scored 7 of his goals in one game, so if you take that away he had 27 in 31 games which is really good, but not for the Eredvisie-Prem transition.

    van Nistelrooy had 29 goals in 23 games for PSV when he was failing his medical at Man Utd.
     
  18. Riddy JH Ridd

    yeah but no one has ever said good players don't come out of eredivisie.

    that was in his 2nd season.
     
  19. MrPrez CM Dyer

    There was the implication that the Erividisie is a worry when it comes to transition to the top leagues, so he highlighted that for the odd failure, there have been many successes.
     
  20. Riddy JH Ridd

    actually, he said it about the top goalscorer. so some of Eds' examples (which no one has questioned) arent even relevant.

    look im not sure why you are getting involved tbh. there really isnt a problem here.
