Evra?

Right after I posted that, Evra sprung to mind for me aswell, I just hoped nobody would mention him.

Still, Evra would 'struggle'. I never said get raped.

oh come on, it's not like I come to the forums and freak out and bash every player every single time we lose - but I thought Grosso was so bad it was worth a mention. I can't recall a single good thing from him at all, defensively, or his crosses (none were helpful) hell his corners never even made the target. You are right there are no better LBs for us at the mo so cmon Grosso get your shit together

Not a bad point, though you came across fairly strong expressing how you felt about Grosso. I didn't think he was good either, so we can agree on that, I just keep in mind what the alternatives are for us and try not to judge him too hard, simply because I'm thankful he's here and he had to put up with Robben. It's all good.

Since when was Grosso allowed so much freedom set-pieces wise? I mean I doubt he's ever taken a corner or freekick at Palermo, Binter, or Lyon.

He did well with them against Genoa I thought putting them into the box. Definitely don't want him shooting from them though.

one good PK, and everyone thinks he's Mihjalovic

You forgot the dive.

Grosso took some freekicks when he played with Lyon.

Grosso took some freekicks when he played with Lyon.

The ones close to his goal?

 

[Stephan]

No, usually the indirect ones, and when Juninho didnt play, also direct ones.

 

[Bjerknes]

And how many goals did he score? Two?

Yeah, that's some sort of freekick specialist alright.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

He took them at Palermo too.

 

[Ken]

He took them at Palermo too.

Who should though? When Diego went off, I don't see who else could do a better job.

I think Camo took them and then Grosso when Camo came off.

grosso actually did already kick a few decent indirect AND direct freekicks for us.

i remember one where he did curl the ball great around the wall and it was destined to hit the goal left, but the keeper made a great save ...

 

[Raz]

His freekick found Chiellini in the Genoa game, which led to goal wich equalised the game.

 

[Yamen]

Grosso can't cross anymore?!

 

[JCK]

Half a match from Grosso tonight.

 

[Dostoevsky]

As always.

 

[The Curr]

Yep, that's the usual from Grosso.

 

[Dostoevsky]

Wait, some will now come to hail his WC performances.

wastes so much time with the ball...still, should have an assist today...Iaquinta
