Heard today, from someone with links to one or two players, that our young frenchman is not happy at the moment. He feels he's not been given a chance by Ramos and has let it be known around the club that if he isn't involved with the 1st team by Christmas he'l ask for a transfer! Apparently Ramos has heard the above and isn't impressed with it or his attitude! Sounds like it could be a short stay at Spurs for Adel.
Taarabt to be sold!

So you're assuming this is true and you've already written him off :bang:
Lol. And I get the Ian Wright award?

hes a clown. He doesnt deserve to play yet, no way. He needs to learn how to actually play football first. I am a fan of his skills, he has the lot technically, but he does not know when to pass or how to play mens football. This young man plays like he's 12 and if he's complaining about not being in the first team then give him short shrift.

Yes, I don't rate him as I said. I think he is a waste of money that could have been spent elsewhere.

Comolli lured Taarabt to club with the promise of first team football; Jol dutifully kept him involved in the first team set up, doing enough to keep him happy without doing anything silly like playing him when it mattered. If Ramos is freeezing him out it is perhaps an early indication that he is going to be less obliging than Jol when it comes to being Comolli's bitch.

Sick of hearing about this kid to be honest, he's got a lot to learn before he's ready for the Prem from what (admittedly little) I've seen of him.

If true, which I'd be very sceptical of it being, it suggests to me that Taarabt has been taking too much notice of what his agent has been saying , such as "in France he is considered the new Zidane." To me Taarabt looks talented , but nothing special. Dribbling skills and step overs are the worst attributes to judge young players on, as they are exciting things to watch and allow people to get carried away. For all his skills, he's not a patch on Gareth Bale, who is even younger than him. Passing, crossing, tackling, vision and shooting are all attributes that I'd rather see in a player before step overs etc. I'm yet to see evidence of any real quality from Taarabt in those departments. I'm not saying he wont develop to be a great player, but I definitely think he's been way over hyped and this may well have given him a bit of an ego.

It's just my oppinion of him. No need to troll rate me. I reckon you did the same to all the forum members slating Berbs the last couple of weeks and wanting him off in January? :shrug:

and it was just my oppionion that you should post better, so repped you as i felt :shrug: no need to get all worked up over it
and i wouldnt give bad rep for people oppinions, just how the post was done, people can slate players i think are good as long as they give good reasoning behind it... would probably give good rep if it was done well

I agree with all you have said, but on the flip side Ramos has shown that he will include younger players who are performing i.e. Troy and KPB. It's doen to Taarabt to put the effort in and impress Ramos, if he does I see no reason why Ramos won't give him a chance. That is how it should be, that goes for all players not just the youngsters.
