Title: Peacock
Post by: Don Rogers Shop on Thursday, April 17, 2008, 12:08:13
In todays Adver he has said that Malpas would prefer him to play up front as he wants better ball players(which is fair enough) yet peacock would prefer to play midfeld(again fair enough).

Now in my opinion he is not good enough as a striker and Malpas does not rate him as a midfielder so if that is the case could someone explain why we are offering him a new contract

the most ironic thing i thought was the fact he wants the ball on the deck. when his biggest threat and strongest attribute is attacking headers.

Dont get me wrong Arriba im not having a pop at the bloke but i just cant get my head around the point of a new contract.I agree his best attributes is his aerial threat.Maybe we should try him at centre half

Peacock probably realises we play better with the ball on the floor, than hoofing it up in the hope he can get a knock down every time.

Work it wide to the wings, get the crosses in and that's when the big guy up front becomes dangerous.

Pretty sure it was offered and signed some time ago, but I may be wrong.

lets be honest.the peacock interviews change all the time.
all they do is prove that interviews mostly are bollocks.
