Spurs fan told me that Pienaar is a big improvement on Kranjcar.
I completely agree. I think Pienaar is a very good player. Technically he might not be slightly behind Niko, but physically he trumps the Croatian. Given a choice between the two, i wouldn't hesitate much to choose Pienaar.

He was Everton's best player last season imo, and he's struck a very good understanding with Baines on Everton's left hand side, it was nice watching both of them together. Too bad he went to Spurs.

YES! But VdV spoiled everything for him :(
No that's what an English Lennon did.

The "not" is a mistake right? If so then despite myself being a Kranjcar fan, I agree.

I don't think Lennon had something with that because he plays only as the right wing and Kranjcar's best position is as central midfielder and he can not get that position ever since VdV came.
If i remember correctly. Nico was a bench warmer before VdV even joined the club, and nothing has pretty much changed. I do like Nico Kranjcar but the thing he lacked at spurs was consistency. He needs to play regular and i wouldnt mind taking him on loan to help us get out of this relegation scrap.

I never said anything about Liverpool.

Pienaar just isn't that good.
I know you didnt mate. But i like Pienaar and he really has impressed me how hes settled in the PL. and i wouldnt go as far as to say he isnt that good seeing as i could prob name a fuck load before him.

So you wouldnt have him at Liverpool then and is joe cole any better? :lol:

Now wait with that loan deal! Dinamo is doing everything we can to get him back on loan for a season and you better stay out of our way! :D

VDV has playing as a second striker ever since he arrived so I can't see how that affected Kranjcar's chances of first team football really. While in Lennon's case, even when he was under performing at the start of this season Harry kept on fielding him regularly and not even, as you've said, listing Kranjcar in the call ups.

Even last season when Kranjcar was having one of his best performances in the EPL Harry never played him as a right winger unless Lennon was either injured or disqualified, IMO for Harry it seems like the right wing is booked for Lennon no matter how shitty is the period he's going through.

Of course I would. We're one of the slowest teams in the league.

To be more specific I think he game is built on his speed and agility. He's not very technically gifted but makes up for it in other ways. He's probably an upgrade from Lennon though. Who I'd also have in the squad as well. Same with Walcott.

Because they're good? No because they're fucking speedy.:D

Joe Cole sucks dick. Only disillusioned Chelsea and Hammer fans expect much from him.:D

He's one of the products we created from our academy and we're trying to bring him back on loan......which he's refusing (and i dont blame him too) but wasnt too upset in letting him go.
