I just had to put the kettle on...go to the shop...buy some coffee...and some milk...come back home...and make myself a cuppa just so I had something to spit out in shock.

Doubt it's true but anything is possible with Dr Evil in charge :lol:

:lol: You should have just got a glass of water. :roll:

Summed up everything that was bad about Spurs in previous years....frustrating glimpses of talent overshadowed by a questionable attitude and a constant feeling that he wasn't fulfilling his potential. We've moved on from thsoe days now so right that Pav moves on too.

Glad he's not gone elsewhere in the Prem as he's the sort of player that on his day could have come back to haunt us. Good luck to him anyway.

€17million ?????

Levy is a true legend.

 

[Spurs_Bear]

Crouch did a lot more for us but didn't get half the support Pav did. He wont be missed.

This.

Lazy but frustratingly talented

 

[lol]

more like talented but frustratingly lazy..

Rather like Bent, Pav never got a real chance to have a proper run in the team and personally I think that if he had played regularly, in a formation that suited him (442 I think) then he would have always scored about 1 in 2.5 games as he has done throughout his career. He could have left at the start of the season but waited to see if he could get game time so he showed loyalty as well. I'm sorry he is going and to be honest I do not think Saha is an improvement, other than he may hold up play better - but he will score less goals.

It's like when the guy at work that you don't really like has a leaving party. You buy him a pint, but you high-five your other mates when he finally picks up his bag after leaving half of that pint and going home early to watch Downton Abbey.

Or something.

Cheers for the moments of joy.

No cheers for the moments of complete and utter incompetence, lack of effort and just plain non-international striker ability. You failed to put any effort into learning English, you didn't give a fuck.

A busy **** like Saha is exactly what we need. Excellent business.

Door. Hit. Way out. etc.

THIS, with a lot more swearing.

Good riddance tbh.

Well, I'm glad we've got that sorted.

Where this notion that he didn't get a fair crack comes from I have no idea—although the fact that one of his biggest supporters on here made the absurd claim that he'd only had a fifth of the airtime Crouch received does tell us how much of an impression he made. Quite often his goals were the first intimation that he'd actually been on the pitch for an hour.

And if he scored as a sub and was rewarded with a start you could practically guarantee he'd do a Lord Lucan.

Does this even merit a debate?...seriously?

 

[agrdavidsfan]

Anywhere know where I can buy a lokomotiv Moscow top with Pavulychenko on the back?

 

[mpickard2087]

Surely even Levy couldnt have conned them into paying €17m!

Always loved Pav.. all the best in the future and thanks for the special moments.

Not good enough for us in the end but nowhere near as bad as all you wankers are making out. :razz:

makes him look good

I liked Pav. On his day he is a quality forward. Unfortunately he is (or certainly appears) very fragile in terms of confidence. And I mean in a game by game basis. I have been at many a game where he has started with an iffy first quarter of an hour, his head has completely dropped and he subsequently becomes a complete passenger.

I think, probably, one of the main reasons for his relative endearment to the fans was his portrayal as an archetypal Spurs player: flattering to deceive. One minute he looks a cultured, international class striker and the next he looks like the kid who got picked last for the playground kickaround.

Enigmatic and strangely charismatic, I shall miss you Roman.

This.

Well done sir. Best definition of Pav I have read.

Like yourself I shall miss him, because he really was the traditional Spurs player. Not that I was around at that time, but from what I have heard from my dad and his pals, sounds very much like Martin Chivers - incredibly talented but sometimes frustratingly lazy and looked like sometimes he couldn't care less.

So although he will not be considered a legend as Chivers, I hope people look back at hime with similar fondness.

But credit to Levy and Redknapp for the Saha/Pav dealings, because traditional Spurs players don't win titles.

Youtube compilations are made for Pav, he probably wouldn't have half the career he has if it wasn't for the action replay and a bit of swift editing.

You know what, I reckon I could look good for 15 seconds a game if I was on that money. I'd try and everything.

The youtubes of him in Russia make him look like a blonde Russian Marco Van Basten. He's fucking far from it!

Boy what a let down...


More than 3 Years ago...

Harry Redknapp was told last night the the best way to get results from £14 million striker Roman Pavlyuchenko was to "slap him around a bit."

The Spurs boss was warned by the Russian star's former managers that the 26-year-old the needed "a bit of help," getting motivated and that a slap around the chops or being dropped to the reserves did wonders for concentration.

Former Spartak Moscow manager Vladimir Fedotov told Sport Express newspaper: 'When I had the feeling that he wasn't going to be in the right mood for a game, I gave him a bit of help.
'So I had to shout at him or sometimes even slap him around the face ... I did it fairly softly although I do have a good punch if I need to.

'Pavlyuchenko is a very gifted footballer. It was easy for me to work with him as I knew his strong sides and his weaknesses.
'His greatest disadvantage is that if he is not in the right mood for the game he is an absolute disaster. He becomes a sap. I hope in England they'll get rid of this habit.

'It was important that I noticed his moods well in advance. If I didn't spot it, he'd wander around the pitch like a lost boy and it was impossible to do anything with him after kick-off.'
Another former Spartak manager, Stranislav Cherchesov, also said the Russian hitman had motivational problems that had to be overcome.

He said: 'After watching him play in England I'm glad to see that Pavlyuchenko comes on the pitch much more motivated than he did for an average game in Russia.
'Evidently this English football is new and interesting to him. I had to exile him to the reserves for a game once to make him change his attitude.

'It was a harsh decision for a manager to make. Initially he was awfully offended. His pride was hurt. He couldn't understand what he was being punished for.
'I'm sure by now he realised that temporary exile did him a lot of good. And not only for him but Spartak and the Russian national team too.'

I'd have loved to have slapped him, I'd have taken his head right off the shoulders.
