Oh please EE, do behave with the immature insults. It really isn't necessary, we've all gathered that you don't watch Tottenham and therefore have crazy views on them to air.

Ireland is a better passer, better infront of goal, far superior defender and has a better engine.


A better passer ?!?!?!?! The better engine and defender maybe but everything else is nonsense.

Your delusional rantings know no bounds.


Pot, Kettle and Black.

You said he was a ‘footballer’, intimating that he was skillful. I simply pointed out that he is a defender, and as a typical defender is a poor passer of the ball and is ineffective with the ball. He is far more effetive when he is without the ball.


He has the ability to get the ball down and give a simple pass. He is also handy at making ground up the field with the ball, albeit lesser so since his injury. By the way, I have never intimated that King is skillful, maybe in your mind.


Enfield Exile wrote:
Seen them more tha you, sadly. Your upturn in form has as much to do, if not more, with some presence in midfield (i.e. Wilson Palacios), Lennon’s form, Keane’s return and Bent’s mini-renaissance.


You posted Palacios cant pass, shoot etc yet now he is a factor in our upturn ? Make your mind up cockle. Certainly Lennon and Keane, not convinced with this renaissance from Bent, I haven't seen it.

Where were you sat at WHL on Saturday? I was in the North Stand (bet you don’t even know the name that fans give to that stand), three seats away from the Block 19 entrance.


Congratulations. Why were you as a Manchester City supporter at WHL to watch Spurs ?
I live in Scotland by the way, don't get down to watch them very often.


Enfield Exile wrote:
Marginally better? Are you going for understatement of the year?

Ferdinand is as skillful as any English footballer. He can do far more with the football than King could ever do.

King isn’t prone to lapses of concentration. Do I need to remind you of the two lapses King made this season that led directly to goals? I probably will have to as you don’t watch them very often.


2 lapses of concentration in an entire season ? Hold the phone !!!!!
Sorry I'm still laughing that Ferdinand is as skillful as any English footballer.


Enfield Exile wrote:
He’s been takinga wage knowing that he will never be fit enough to train and play more than once a week. All Spurs supporters know as a fact that King’s knee will never recover to allow him to play more than once a week.


He probably won't. However Spurs choose to pay him his wage because he is invaluable to us and despite his injuries, the manager of England has just tried to call him up so he is therefore still considered in the best English centre halves.


Enfield Exile wrote:
You have made yourself look silly by saying that Ferdinand is only marginally more skillful than King? Not to mention you going on about Modric on the basis of about 3 decent games.

What pub do you drink in before the games?


I never even mentioned King and skillful in the same sentence you silly drama queen, you made this argument up. Modric equals Ireland in all but goal scoring in his first season in a new league and playing in the wrong position all season in a poorly performing side. I am not even going to debate Luka Modric and Stephen Ireland, stupid argument.

What pub do I drink in ?!?!?!?! What are you on about ?

Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union.

Become a much better player?


Wonderfully reasoned argument there. :roll:

The current England manager is picking Heskey - Davies is on current form the much better player and (despite being used out wide on occasions) is outscoring Heskey.

Davies isn't good enough to play for England.

The fact Davies may be in better form than Heskey at the moment is irrelevant. Heskey, for all of his faults, is an experienced international. To pick Davies now, a novice in relative terms, would be madness.

So, to sum up I wouldn't pick Davies for England because:-

a) He isn't good enough;
b) He has no experience

Good enough?

Ireland could well end up being Man Citys Frank Lampard. When the investment arrived at Chelsea, he was an established Premierhsip player sure, but Chelsea fans were still struggling to understand the £11m tag etc. Under Ranieri and Mourinho he & JT became one of the most important people to Chelsea, and whilst plenty of other 'stars' came & went, they became the consistency, that everything was built around, and Lampards game improved, and he became a 20 goal man etc, I know folk don't rate him, but for Chelsea, for the last 5 years he's been immense.

Ireland has all the ingrediants to be a top player, if City become a top four club, he's one of the few they have capable of improving with them so to speak, and taking his game on. When I've seen him at times this year, he's been excellent.

Oh, and he needs to end his ROI exile.

Not really.

a) Matter of opinion. Even your own comments don't support that.
b) So we pick experience over form. We have friendlies, what the hell are they for?
