MGLCFC Posted 11 June 2011 Posted 11 June 2011 Nugent will always offer more than Fryatt - why? Because he can head the ball and has pace - Fryatt had neither. On top of that Nugent has played at Premier level and had reasonable success - Fryatt may never.
sdb Posted 11 June 2011 Posted 11 June 2011 Is Nugent fast? Never struck me as being this speed demon so many are referring to.
MGLCFC Posted 11 June 2011 Posted 11 June 2011 Nugent is on a par with Waghorn for pace, if not slightly quicker
Haydos Posted 11 June 2011 Posted 11 June 2011 get over it mate Get over what? Oh yeah, as soon as you see the name 'Fryatt' your simple brain automatically assumes he's obsessing over how he's no longer here. Read. The. Post.
superfox1980 Posted 11 June 2011 Posted 11 June 2011 Nugent is no better than fryatt. Sven didn't think fryatt was good enough for city, the same rule should apply to Nugent. Fryatt is in the past, move on for godsake !!
Narborough_fox Posted 11 June 2011 Posted 11 June 2011 Don't forget this England goal was scored 1 yard out. 1 yard too many there Bert.
Legend_in_blue Posted 11 June 2011 Posted 11 June 2011 Nugent is no better than fryatt. Sven didn't think fryatt was good enough for city, the same rule should apply to Nugent. Where does Hume fit into this comparison of yours? Come on, reminisce some more.
Haydos Posted 11 June 2011 Posted 11 June 2011 get over it mate Fryatt is in the past, move on for godsake !! Where does Hume fit into this comparison of yours? Come on, reminisce some more. Are these serious? Move on? **** me. He's clearly stating that he thinks Nugent is no better than Fryatt and Fryatt was allowed to leave so why bring Nugent in. Seems like you 3 are the ones that need to move on.
funkyrobot Posted 11 June 2011 Posted 11 June 2011 Where does Hume fit into this comparison of yours? Come on, reminisce some more. Read my thread properly. Fryatt was deemed not good enough. Fair enough and we got rid. Nugent's name gets mentioned and I can't see much difference in ability despite what some people say. He isn't good enough and whilst we're at it, nugent has also been criticised for his attitude in the past so why swap an alleged sulker for another one?

He's clearly stating that he thinks Nugent is no better than Fryatt and Fryatt was allowed to leave so why bring Nugent Seems like you 3 are the ones that need to Comparing Nugent and Fryatt is completely pointless surely the debate is about Nugent being better or worse than what we've already got.
Haydos Posted 11 June 2011 Posted 11 June 2011 Comparing Nugent and Fryatt is completely pointless surely the debate is about Nugent being better or worse than what we've already got. The main debate, probably yeah. But if someone wants to use a departed player as comparison then it's completely valid. Again: Fryatt not at Leicester.......Fryatt = Nugent........Nugent not at Leicester It's a pretty simple train of thought. The same as if someone said <right back> is no better than Neilson and Sven let him go.

If you think Fryatt it better, that's fine it's your opinion. But your point about "the same rule should apply" is complete and utter nonsense, if Sven thinks Nugent brings something that Fryatt couldn't then that's his opinion. To suggest he is actually knowingly selling a better player and replacing him with someone worse is ridiculous. That might be your opinion, it doesn't mean his has to choose the team according to that though.

My point is Fryatt wasn't deemed not good enough by Sven and was allowed to leave. Nugent clearly rated by Sven if reports are right and we're going to sign him. Comparing Nugent to a striker at the club currently is a better statement to make isn't it
MGLCFC Posted 11 June 2011 Posted 11 June 2011 Personally, at this level, I think Nugent is a better striker than Fryatt. Fryatt is a natural finisher, but I feel Nugent's all round game is better. He certainly has more pace than Fryatt, is a better header of the ball and he is very good with his link up play. With a goal machine like Yakubu next to him, this partnership has the potential to be very effective at this level (should it ever happen).

Nugent clearly rated by Sven if reports are right and we're going to sign him. Comparing Nugent to a striker at the club currently is a better statement to make isn't it I think that was his point (without wanting to tread on toes). I don't really have an opinion on this, only when people jump on someones back for a point that they weren't making. Meh.
Babylon Posted 11 June 2011 Posted 11 June 2011 I think that was his point (without wanting to tread on toes). But it's a stupid point. That's Svens opinion, If you don't think Sven if right, then fine say that. But the way it was worded (maybe unintentionally) it comes across like he thinks Sven is intentionally applying different rules to Fryatt as he is to Nugent, almost like he's knowingly sold a better player!?

I don't really have an opinion on this, only when people jump on someones back for a point that they weren't making. Meh. I not jumping on anyone's back, far from it and by the way what is it your doing exactly then ? Back to the debate. His point was, Nugent is no better than Fryatt and he was allowed to leave. That's the point isn't it, he clearly is better in Sven's opinion otherwise he wouldn't want to sign him would he?
Haydos Posted 11 June 2011 Posted 11 June 2011 If you don't think Sven if right, then fine say that. I thought the above was applied I've accidentally thrown my two cents into this Like I said, I was merely defending him from the "you mentioned Fyatt's name, that must mean you're stuck in the past" brigade. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Epkrs7XhvzU
Babylon Posted 11 June 2011 Posted 11 June 2011 I thought the above was applied It was and I understood that, but the other part of my post you didn't quote says what I find the silly point of the post.

I think he (where have you gone? ) was just disagreeing with Sven, which is fine, no ulterior motive. Plenty didn't want Yak, King, Kirkland, Davies, Bruma etc etc. Same with him and Nugent.
Haydos Posted 11 June 2011 Posted 11 June 2011 It was and I understood that, but the other part of my post you didn't quote says what I find the silly point of the post. Right, fair enough. We're discussing semantics then. We all know everyone rates players differently and therefore it would be silly to suggest he would be 'knowingly' signing an inadequate player. I don't think that's the case though. And with that, I'm out.
