Harry FINALLY off the mark!

Zico 10 · 2004-12-04

OK, so it was just a header from 5 yards out, but I don't care.. He looked so relieved to have scored that goal, and I hope he finally rediscovers his confidence :shades: 17 minutes in, Liverpool 1-0 up..

Too right it's about damn time he scored again. If we're going to have a chance of going to Germany, we need him firing.

That and the fact we still haven't found replacements for Alex Tobin and Milan Ivanovic (let alone talent to truly supersede them as we have for other positions) since the promise of Argentina way back in 1993:

Jo Simunic - best defender Australia's ever produced... who plays for Croatia
Craig Moore - injury crock, spent too long hiding in a crap league.
Steve Horvat - absolute rubbish
Steve Laybutt - a lump, nothing more #1
Tony Popovic - a lump, nothing more #2
Shaun Murphy - a lump, nothing more #3
Eddy Bosnar - no talent d#ckhead
Hayden Foxe - injury crock, error-prone
Simon Colosimo - thanks Andy Cole
Adrian Madaschi - what happened? #1
Mark Byrnes - what happened? #2
Ljubo Milicevic - what happened? #3
David Tarka - what happened? #4

One of the greatest problems we've had with all our centrehalves - even when they are fit and in form - is that they're bloody snails. Whenever we come up against strikers only slightly quicker than wet cement our rear guard gets skinned.

ah dude its refreshing seeing ur blunt yet accurate assessments around here

as far as Im aware madaschi isnt far off, but ol frankie doesnt give him too many chances to establish himself, having said that im sure he played in one of our last 3 matches, Byrnes was gonna be super but did his knee wen he was young and just never got over it, apparently his mobility became a real issue, no idea wots happening now. Milicivic and Tarka along with madaschi and kisnorbo should be played at nearly every opportunity we have, they are the best of wots coming thru, having said that like i mentioned in another thread WEVE HAD 3.5 F*(KING YEARS TO ESTABLISH THESE GUYS AND YET ITS THE SAME SHIT PLAYING GAME IN GAME OUT

if Harry Kewell had come to the Arsenal you would have had a world superstar on your hands.

i blame his thick wife being on that stupid Northern tv programme.

The problem with poor old Dasch is, he's rotting away in the Scottish First Division - far too poor a standard for him to be playing if he's fair dinkum about making a name for himself, let alone start at the back during a Socceroo world cup campaign.

Byrnes is at FC Harmellinna in f#cking Finland - no disrespect to anyone reading this named Jari or Keke.

Tarka is going nowhere at Forest. Milicevic is still nursing that groin tear he suffered during the Athens qualifiers almost five decades ago and Dasch, as I said, is rotting away in Haggistan's second flight.

Kisnorbo's the only one looking like half a show, and he's currently being overlooked for Tony "grey pubes" Vidmar.

Exactly right mate. It's a joke. I'm half expecting to see Paul Schillabeer, Charlie Yankos, Bobby Despotovski and Ante Milicic line up against the Sammys this time.

I've been saying that ever since he signed for the scouse.

Absolutely ridiculous decision. If he'd gone to Wengerville or Loch Fergie he would've been rightly hailed as genuinely world class by now.

But no, now he's just another ubertalented player to be ruined by the Anfield experience.

For mine, our three greatest hopes are Milicevic, McKain and Kisnorbo.

The problem we have is, Milicevic has been struggling with this groin injury for the best part of seven or eight months and besides which, he is stranded at FC Thun in the Swiss top flight.

Kisnorbo has been playing consistently good football for Hearts in the SPL and during their forays into the UEFA Cup, but as a bits and pieces man mainly in midfield and at fullback. He is yet to be placed into central defence (if he'll play there at all now) on a regular basis.

McKain is the greatest hope of them all. The Romanian NT manager was quoted a few months ago as saying that if Jon was Romanian he'd select him - a big honour for any foreigner playing abroad. What we need him to do now is go to one of Europe's big leagues.

As far as 2006 goes however, it looks like we're stuck with Popovic and Moore - if they're fit.

It's too difficult to make a call on any of the younger boys such as Timpano... who have had their progress stalled by a good 12-18 months thanks to the transition from NSL to A-League.

Its no ones fault but Kewells that he's gone downhill, In the time he's been at Anfield the likes of Baros, Gerrard, Xabi, Pongolle have excelled n even fecking Carra, Mellor Riise and Traore have been ressurected.The truth is, he's a lazy, lethargic bastard who comes out every 2nd Tuesday saying the critics dont faze him and he'll prove them wrong and then he does feck all.If Vicente, Rufete, Kily, Luis Garcia can play as widemen under Benitez theres no reason he cant.
