English football fans are wank, maybe if they hadnt spent 3/4 of his stay at leeds slagging him off chris would be more inclined to have stayed.
The reason leeds fans snagged him off I'd because he missed an unbelievable amount of sitters and apart from the tap ins that he scores, his all round game is absolute garbage.
Let me guess - Birko have got loads of players better than him? He has a good record over a number of seasons now. Assume you will be at NHS next week specifically to tell him how rubbish he is
You mention Birko quite a lot. Bit of an obsession there pal? Is it the fact our club has better fans than whatever non entity you associate yourself with in New Zealand?
Only because it's the only thing in football you seem to think is any good. Yes they have done a great job at creating a fantastic community club. Just don't understand why you have so much hate for one of NZ's best footballers. Liking 1 thing doesn't mean you have to slag everything else off
I support Arsenal as well. I don't hate him, i just don't rate him. I've already stated before if he does well then good on him. I have even offered up money as a bet if he does better than i expect, money i would happily donate to a person or charity. Just cannot see it happening having seen him play many times in his career (i watched him a lot at Leeds before people ask).
People seem to be really sensitive about having a go at Kiwi footballers unless their name is Moses Dyer.
He's already achieved a lot for a 25yo, and unlike most Kiwi players who go the UK, he's gone from apprentice to actually making it as a pro. So given that by virtue of an outstanding season at Leeds he earned himself a PL gig, I would have thought most NZ football fans reaction would be "good on him, hope he does really well", not "meh, he's a bit average, bet he'll be a failure".
As I pointed out earlier, both the Nix and United have a small but very outspoken minority of naysayers/baggers. I wish he'd stayed but he might as well make hay while the sun shines. More importantly, he seems to be becoming the AWs permanent captain given Reid's genuine and not so genuine sickies.
