MC Prussian Posted 1 September 2011 Share Posted 1 September 2011 Comme on peut se tromper... Néanmoins, merci pour les souvenirs (sauf ce penalty de merde). Bonne chance pour le futur, n'importe où, Yann! Et... bye bye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karljohn Posted 1 September 2011 Share Posted 1 September 2011 So this is why Maynard didnt sign, Kermo and Crncic were his ideal striker partners.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox92 Posted 1 September 2011 Share Posted 1 September 2011 He wasn't good enough, and although players make mistakes he did do something stupid in a Play Off Semi Final. His goal against Middlesbrough was class though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

21st Century Fox Posted 1 September 2011 Share Posted 1 September 2011 Didn't he take the penalty in the first place because no one else would, so when mentioning egos and team mates the players that refused should probably be taken into account.

thybluefox Posted 1 September 2011 Share Posted 1 September 2011 I'm actually a little disappointed. Yes he messed up that penalty, but he didn't miss it on purpose, he took it in a way that he thought he was most likely to score from. Just like someone who tries to bury it bottom corner but instead drags it wide. What I'm saying is that it was a shit penalty, but that's all it was. The bloke has been treated like he threw the ****ing game. I saw enough in him to believe he could have been a solid squad player, that finish against 'Boro was quality, for example. I don't know whether its Just City fans, or football fans in general, but the ability of some of our fans to completely turn on a player is pretty depressing. Ricardo was unfairly treated by the fair majority of fans too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He scored on goal aginst a Boro team in a meaningless game at the end of the season. He was dreadful, and looked over weight and heavy. He showed a lack of respect for the club and the importance of the PO's by taking the penalty in the way he did. He deserved all the stick he got.

Ha, knew I'd rile some feathers with that post I wasn't saying that he was capable of banging in 20 a season and setting the league alight. But I also wouldn't say he was much worse than some of the other players in the squad, one in particular that even though he's just been shipped out on loan, a large section of the fans seem to think he warranted a chance and a run in the team. Who also incidentally missed a penalty after Kermit did. Sven & co will have seen him play more than me obviously, so if they think he wasn't good enough then I'm not going to cry about it, but from what I saw of him, he wasn't as shit as everyone made out. Lets see how many more people get their knickers in a twist now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That aside you're right, no worse than a lot of other players, he just made a dick of himself in the biggest game of our very recent history.

nuttytimmy Posted 1 September 2011 Share Posted 1 September 2011 that goal against boro was good though ..i was directly behind the goal for that it was a brilliant strike, one that we'd been waiting a whole season for him to deliver (a la Wellens, Abe) I think he was made a scapegoat but he was never really going to get a look in under Eriksson, so it's best for all parties that he's gone.

He showed a lack of respect for the club and the importance of the PO's by taking the penalty in the way he did. He deserved all the stick he got. I wouldn't say he was shit. Admittedly things didn't really work out for him here but he certainly had some redeeming features. I think he's one of the best at heading that I've seen at LCFC, and he did show glimpses of quality (his goal vs Boro). But then equally he never really looked like he could be a consistent goalscorer. He was kind of caught in between being a striker and a midfielder for me. I knew, and said, when he walked up to take that penalty at Cardiff, that he would miss. It seemed like it wasn't going to work out for him here and missing that penalty was going to be the final nail in his coffin. I never imagined the manner in which he would miss it however. At the time I was furious with him for trying to be so audacious in such an important shoot-out but with hindsight can see the arguments that that's how he normally took them, at least he had the balls to take one etc. Had he still been in LCFC's plans I wouldn't have held it against him but I think many would. And I honestly believe that that, in no small part, would have been down to the Dave Henson song. That penalty, and the lyrics in the song, completely overclouded everything that had gone before and people were never going to forgive the guy or hold a balanced opinion of his merits. It's best for both parties that he's gone though and, albeit for the wrong reasons, he'll always be a massive part of LCFC's history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
