Well he's on the bench so atleast Harry notes his existance.
Pringle's post was on topic.
And its all good for you to tell him to put you on ignore, but why dont you do the same?
If your not willing to ignore each others posts either on your own or by the ignore function then action will be taken as im sure im not the only one sick of you two having a go at each other.
It's also worth noted that both of those games, Gio was played out of position. He's not a right winger. He's never been a right winger. Having a poor game in a position you aren't suited to shouldn't be held against you. Kranjcar, Modric and Van der Vaart have all had very poor games when deployed on the right wing, but we don't write them off as players because that is not the position they play.
We now have the players to play a 4-2-3-1 system effectively, which is what we should do. Giovani is well suited for any of the positions in the attacking 3. And with Lennon and Van der Vaart injured as well as Modric being a dick, now should be an ideal time to give Gio a few games in his favoured position.
i think when everyone is fit, he wont be anywhere near the bench
Lennon and VDV who he is competing with will come in ahead of him and the likes of Hudd, Sandro, Corluka, Gallas, Pienaar, Rose will also be picked on the bench ahead of him imo. That is unless he really gets his head down in training and impresses - only a few mins today, but he got on ahead of others which shows Harry is willing to give him a go
Sorry but have you regularly watched him in training recently and where is there recent infromation that his current attitude is poor?
100% agree. Let me know when GDS shows that he has this (preferably against a decent opponent not Murcia on the last game of the season, against Haiti in the Gold Cup or in the Championship for Ipswich.
How about against the USA, the team that England couldn't beat in the WC ?
Glad to see him have some game time
Nobody can write him off because he's never had a run in the team.
what a ridiculous reply - does that mean the Wrexham side that beat Arsenal were amazing as well? 1 game doesnt make a team and lets be honest USA aint a world beating team!
If GDS was anywhere near as good as you would love to believe, at least 1 of these would have happened
1 - Barca would have sold him for big bucks as a hugely talented player
2 - he would have performed well for us
3 - a big club would have come in for him this summer
4 - he would have performed well in a big comp for his country
none of the above has happened. All he has EVER done is perform in weaker leagues and comps against weak opposition. Those are the facts and that is undeniable.
I agree with you, but he was pretty good in the World Cup (unless I'm remembering it wrong).
