this guy said 1 year ago that jenkinson would never be a footballer, now his opinions just make me giggle
anyone could see there was potential there, and anyone can see that gervinho has some quality
mannone however... have to give you that one, guess if you say everyone's rubbish you're bound to get one right
I still think Jenkinson is a very average full back, who probably won't play any important games again this season when Sagna is back from injury. He had a decent game against Chelsea, but I thought he was very average at Liverpool and I think that one good cross against Montpellier and one good game does not make a great player. I might be proved wrong over time, but if I made a comment last season about him being a terrible player, it was because he was playing terribly. I think you would be hard pushed to find any Arsenal fan who said after the Man Utd game last season that they thought he would be an england international in 2 years time (and personally I don't think he will be but lets wait and see).
Gervinho was also terrible last season and I believe that this idea of turning him into a centre forward will cost Arsenal points. He is an absolute jigsaw (goes to peices in the box) and although he has scored a few this season, can you see him scoring 20 goals over the season? Maybe he will, but I am willing to put my balls on the line and say he won't. It is the current trend at the moment to be slagging off Giroud, yet I think he has looked decent so far, and will get better. Theo is another player who gets an unfair amount of criticism (in my eyes) yet I was also complimentary about him. I don't think I just say every player is shark, but there is not a lot of skill in going to a game and coming back and saying "Carzola is a good player, Arteta passes the ball well" because anyone with an eye can see that. I don't support Arsenal but go to see them a bit due to my location. I try to provide objective views on things, hoping that people will look at things a little deeper than the Sun "he scored, therefore he is amazing, he didn't score and is an expensive flop" guff you get in a lot (obviously not all) of the media.
And if my comments make you giggle, you should see me naked.
