just a thought i had on the Doc

[Syteanric 1]

Did Lambert say publically that Doc was free to find a new club but have no intention of selling him at all?

since Lambert said this its got the response... Doc has done well the last few games

Think to earlier in the season when he dropped Hoolahan earlier in the season.. he has since come back and done well too...

I think Lambert might just be master of the mind game.... ASkou and Do are getting it right.. why would you sell a player doing well?

jas :)

you wouldn''t unless it was for financial gain.

i.e. if Arsenal came in for Korey Smith you would expect at least £6-7 million for him, judging by Theo Walcott''s rating when we moved to Arsenal for £12 million.

 

[O.T.B.C 1]

Smith is a good player for us and will become even better, but I''m afraid that he is no where worth the same as Walcott. Walcott right boot is worth more than Smith. Don''t get me wrong, I like Smith and think he is now an integral part of the team now and hopefully someone we can build the team around for a few years to come.

The same Walcott who had been touted as a wonderkid from a very, very young age and was a regular at championship level at 16?

Afraid it desn''t work that way refjez, korey would have to do a lot more than currently to command that sort of price tag.

[Yobocop 1,441]

Someone will take a punt on him in the future (if we don''t get higher up the leagues)

And I would say it will be for millions...

[Well I Never 0]

He certainly seems to have potential but at this stage you would hope that we exploit his potential for all it''s worth. Don''t want to see Lambert sell him for half a mil to get some fresh legs in then see him go to chelsea in a years time for 7 mil

WALCOTT IS CRAP...what a waste of money..... he has been injured 85% of the time, and crap 10% of the time, meaning only 5% of the time he has been at Arsenal he was been good.....they sold Veria for the same they bought Walcott for, they should have just kept Viera, and Smith is doing about as well as Walcott was anyway.....so yeah we shouldn''t sell him for less than 10 million......

Korey Smith has been superb, not afraid to shoot, has a decent shot, bags and bags of pace, looks to get forward. Wouldn''t surprise me if he ended up worth millions

[Yobocop 1,441]

I''m not suggesting for one minute that we sell him for megabucks but we may have no choice if we are languishing in League One and a big premiership side comes in for him.

I''ve seen players who are potentially worse than him go to those big clubs for big money.

 cos if someone came in with a bid of 9 mil we''d tell them to sling their hook

i am going to get badly grilled for this but gunn has brought in a few players that we can build from. we did not have this last season with so many loans .and for the first time for a while we have some good youth players making a stamp on the team. maybe better times for norwich ahead.

[/quote]Dribbling ability, a decent cross, good passer of the ball and can finish. Also not afraid to get stuck in.

Sorry people but we have to get realistic, if a prem club came in for Korey with maybe say 900k with a cash strapped club like us we would sell.

Jas, how come your initial message was about Doc and it is now a Korey/Walcott one? Getting back to you Jas, Doc seem to be doing the buisiness lately and proving a lot of people wrong, may it continue.

I find this quite refreshing especially in league 1. Actually the whole teams is passing it around nicely, but for me Doc doing this shows great improvement in his game. Credit has to go to Lambert for that.

C''mon Ginge.  This''ll be the same Walcott who scored an International hat trick, in a World Cup qualifier, against quality international opposition??  Erm, don''t think he''s crap.....really.
