I mean, c'mon... if players like Marcello, Garay, etc, are "mediocre" then what does that make players who play for SPL clubs? and the 100's of other leagues out there.

A bit of context would be nice... jeez..

Here's yer context:
They're playing for Real Madrid.

So hold on, because we're not professionals we can't criticise players?

The exit's that way >>>>

You can criticize all you like til your blue in the face...

I'm just saying... if you're gonna criticize at least be a bit more specific rather than saying "he's mediocre" which is a favourite of many dumb-ass football fans.

Hope that's not too much to ask...

Apperently the always fucking injuried fit Andy Webster is away to Dundee Utd or Falkirk on a free.

YAS.

Timmy · 8th July 2009, 9:18am

Decent signing for anyone below us in the spl.

All the hassle he went through to get away from Hearts, can hardly seem worth the effort now.

Rosco · 8th July 2009, 10:14am

It's a shame, he's decent when he's fit which is NEVER.

Jaemi · 8th July 2009, 10:22am

I doubt he's even decent to be honest.
Walter is getting shot of him and keeping on Davie Weir for another year, says a lot really.

(I need to read what I'm writing)

Timmy · 8th July 2009, 10:27am

Davie has a coaching role within Rangers as part of his contract I believe. (Sure I read that somewhere).
Not taking away from the fact davie is better than webster.

Rosco · 8th July 2009, 10:55am

I always liked Webster when he played for Hearts. Injuries must've turned him shite.

Timmy · 8th July 2009, 11:11am

Probably the fact he hasn't done anything for two years, then went on loan to bristol (?), and got booed out the place.

Who the fuck invited Martin Tyler?
If I tell you some cunt that plays for Real Madrid isn't good enough, then you'll take that as truth, gospel and fact. And you'll take it right up your quivering fart cave, like you used to take the papish pole from yer Da'.

And I don't really think you've been around long enough to "ask" anything of anyone.

If I tell you that Heinze wanted to play CB at Man Utd but Fergie knew that he lacked the awareness and positional sense to play in that position, so he played him LB and it worked out fairly well for a while. Then he went to Real and was given the CB position and his performances last season, well, he's basically out on his ear as far as Madrid are concerned.

Here's an idea.... why don't you die in a house fire?

Now is that too much to ask... :P

There's opinions and then there's half-arsed opinions. Just bugs me how people can call players shite and mediocre... in comparison to what? Russel Latapy? Diego Maradona? Your uncle Bob??

Sake..

I'm with Timmy on this one. Real Madrid have plenty of back-up in defence however could do with one big signing. Saying that... I think Albiol will become a main-stay in their defence.

When they are saying players are pish, its in the context that they should be of a higher calibre to play for a team like Real Madrid (one of, if not, the biggest team in the world) in La Liga, a very fast paced league with alot of brilliant attacking teams.

Criticising a player in La Liga will have no bearing on any similar criticism a player in the SPL may recieve since the standards of both leagues are at opposite sides of the spectrum.

There's your context.
