Guest RobsRangers Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 NO, NO, NO!!!! The game is changing now. A lazy centre forward (who is also getting older and slower) is no more acceptable than a high ball launched up the park because you have a giant centre foward, just because he can score goals. We have an opportunity here that we will NEVER get again i.e. we have 3 years to create a system all of our own, built on 'pass-and-move' football based on mobility with the same core of young players bonding over that period, getting to know every detail of how each other plays, and fighting for each other. But more importantly a system that won't change regardless of who is injured. It's what Ajax have done (again!), it what Barca did, and it's what the German national team have done (and they will be the top force in international football in the next few years because of their patience.There is no place for a Boyd, Kyle etc in that ideology IMHO. It holds that ethos back. I totally agree but i would still prefer Boydy over Sandazza 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anchorman 0 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Wow!! Dreamland in it's severity.........GET BOYD BACK. Goals are what the fans pay for. I feel quite sad actually. A league that we've already won. 25 goals in the last 8 games. Exactly the same next year. And our fans want "hunners o' goals" and some kind of short term myopic 'fix' like you do when your chances of winning the league look like fading. Did I say I feel 'quite' sad. Can I change that? I fuckin despair. We've got a chance to nurture a system and a young team to grow together....aw fuck forget it. ALBERTZ! ALBERTZ! (don't think he has a club now either). 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Do I even need to give my opinion??? One of the biggest myths ever was 'No Boyd = No Goals = No Title'. He has failed everywhere since leaving Ibrox and to be dumped out of the Portland Timbers says it all. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was our top goalscorer for five consecutive seasons, like it or not he did the business for us. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was about 22, 23 then and still ran about like a 53 year old, whats he going to be like now! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying it means he should come back, but plenty vastly underrate his contribution to us. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
