Hafnia Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Osman for me will always be one if the most talented "footballers" we have had in our team for the past 10 years. If he had the athleticism of a Steven gerrard you would be talking about a serious contender. It's not a pity that he is a little lightweight and slow across the ground as he has made a career as a good premier league player. He has his moments like any player but the talent has always been there. How many players out there can go on either foot like him? Joe cole stated he was a better talent at youth level - he has probably regained that status in the latter years by the looks of things. I bet he is one of the first picked for 5 a side put it that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smeghead1 Posted April 16, 2011 Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 Hes been Brilliant since being played in the middle of the park as he always is when played there! Its great to see a local lad playing so well and lets be honest if he played for a London based team he'd play for England aswell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Ossie is certainly coming on strong lately. He is the sort of player most clubs would like to have in the squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcopaulo Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 the only criticism of him i ever have is his shooting..cos i know he can do better and quite often he smashes it over the bar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowensda Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Completely agree with that. He was non existent last night, just ghosted alot. Shame. Romey 1878 and Matt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Completely agree with that. He was non existent last night, just ghosted alot. Shame. agreed. I find it particularly hard to take with him being my favourite player but he needs dropping / resting. Id be giving Lundstrum a chance ahead of him at the moment, and yes, Im well aware of the gamble that presents.

Sideliner Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Osman must be given a break to lift his game before he drops his name like Neville did last season Quinn31 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brett Angel Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Hahahahahaha lunstrum. All these youngsters sound great on paper. Put them straight into a match on a Saturday afternoon and I bet we get dominated by a mid table side. Then everyone will post another alternative theory, whilst the points slowely drift away...

Never know until you try. You could just keep sticking with what obviously isn't working (Osman), or you could freshen things up a bit with a new face. The risk goes both ways.

Then you see his England performances and factor in we have bugger all funds. Reasonable shout considering our situation... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest blueboy122 Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 Does anyone know what the hell Jack Rodwell is doing these days? No chance he will get anywhere near the City side this year. He has well and truely fucked his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hafnia Posted August 30, 2013 Report Share Posted August 30, 2013 http://www.toffeeweb.com/season/13-14/news/25534.html Well deserved and the timing is good. For me when you see a player get his testimonial it is a way of saying "you've had your best days here, and thanks very much for your effort and commitment. If you don't mind we will be using you as a much valued squad player now" It's a bit less harsh than one day finding themselves surplus to requirements with no testimonial. Pay attention Phil Gartside and Bolton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
