McGovern in centre midfield

Dell Boy, your burns suck, if you'd burned people at a higher level then you'd know why.

I've had many speedy professional wingers trying to roast me f in my day thanks Flammable, and those were the days when you were allowed to give them a good kick in the first five minutes and get away with it, if you didn't they would torture you for the rest of match, it was the only way to slow down some of those buggers down.

I think his career ended because he lacked pace as a winger and now he's upset.

[flammableBen]

boo he posted before me

[dell boy]

dell boy former pro?mmmmmm

im sure he posted before he'd played against/for Southampton in the FA Cup

yes but i think he inferred that we shouldn't ask further questions.

No one has ever asked me who I've played for as far as I can remember, Southampton was one of the sides, Brentford was another, if I give the other club than Reg Smeeton will look me up and then you know what a bad player I actually was.

NO DV.

Having a midfielder playing wide does not automatically make him a winger, Beckham was never a winger at least not from every single England match that I can remember him playing in.

Rather he was a Right Midfielder DV. His job was NEVER to skin the opposing fullback, take it to the byline and the whip in a cross, ect ect.

If you remember Beckham's balls came from deep in midfield, regardless of what position he was playing in.

Becks was a world class midfielder DV, be it in the centre or on the right, but he was NEVER a winger. There is a BIG difference.

What the fuck does speedy wingers have to do with your burning ability? I think my point has been made.

Someone seems a bit touchy.

Difference of opinion.

You have a goal keeper, two full backs, two centre backs, two wingers, two central midfielders and two strikers.

If you play furthest right or left of the midfield you are playing on the wings, therefore a winger.

Beckhams job has always been to get crosses into the box for the strikers, which is exactly the job of a winger?!

What the fuck are you on about, obviously too many people brought you pints today. :roll:

[Arriba]

i think dell is wrong but right too :?
if someone is running at you as a defender with the ball then it is the hardest thing to judge.
but if the delivery from a slower player is lethal enough then pace is irrelivant.
its all down to the individual defending each situation.
pace and delivery then you are up against it big time.

I remember a post of yours saying that you scored for Southampton in the cup.

I never scored/played for my school Dell. I bet you is a better player than me.

No that is not correct - if you played Pook, Easton, Peacock and Allen in the middle who is the winger? Answer none of them, they are playing four across the middle of the park.

yup, summed it up really....

Wingers job is to get the ball into the box for the strikers, JPM is slower than Roberts and less tricky but has a much better delivery, hence I'd rather have him out wide.

All the pace and ability to beat the full back is pointless to the team, if your final ball is pants.

Its all total bullshit Sonic, you know the truth you can take the piss with your rapier wit, but I have the scars and memories to prove otherwise.

If, they are lining up as you typed them

Pook - Easton - Peacock - Allen

Then Pook and Allen are the wingers because they are playing out wide.
