Marvin Emnes

Recommended Posts

[quote user="Militant Canary"]Why Swansea?[/quote]

He was on a loan there earlier and has told to be admirer of their game.

Anyway not a bad deal if it comes trough. He has some serious firepower and we would get Vaughan back after a year.

Yes please, Emnes is absolutely class. Would be really happy if this came off, with the added bonus that we get Vaughan back again after a year. Would give Vaughan plenty of game time at Championship level and finally prove that he is over his injury problems.

I just have a feeling that Norwich are not 100% sure about his long term fitness.

Emnes is dreadful. A mate of mine is a Boro fan and can''t wait for him to go. He is lazy, selfish and has a terrible touch. Scored a few (tap ins) early in the season then went through long baron spells.

I''d rather have Vaughan any day.

You''re kidding!

I thought they were 100% sure!

Apart from not being sure what a baron spell is (something you do once a knight?), I think you find that you could take that description and apply it to most players.  There are plenty on here would say the exact same about Morison, Hoolahan and Martin yet the majority would disagree.   On WACCOE they say the same about Snodgrass.   We disagree.   Your mate is entitled to his opinion but it is not gospel for us to rely on.   I''ve long been a fan of Emnes.  He has great talent which flowered a bit at Swansea.  He is currently ok in a poor team.  I like him because I think there is great scope for improvement and not because of what he is today.

 

He destroyed Cardiff and gave us the ability to win promotion at Portsmouth.  He is capable of good things.

Alright I disagree with you so you attack the auto correct on my phone. Well done, gold star for you.

Anyway I''d rather trust a Boro season ticket holder (and his family) with no reason not to give an honest opinion on a player. Overrated, over hyped and no better than Jackson.

Started last season well but tailed off badly - sure he scored in most of the first 7 or 8 games last year. Has a bit of pace but not really sure he is better than what we have - Jackson scored 13 in our Champs Season and spent half the season on the bench!

Yes, it was a silly jibe and I apologise.  I was in a flippant mood having just had root canal at the dentist.

 

My basic point that every club has fans who don''t rate players is a good one though and whilst I respect your friend''s right to his opinion, I don''t accept it any more than I accept ncfc''s opinion of Holt or Paul Moy''s opinion of Chris Martin.

Happy to agree to disagree.

As you said everybody has a right to an opinion and everybody else has a right to disagree with it.

One thing I can say is that if we do sign him (which we probably won''t) I''ll be 100% behind him and would very happily be proven wrong!!

It''s not just my opinion though is it. I think you may be in the minority now whereas I was in the minority last year. I hope you googled ''root canal'' before you decided to have it done.....

Look under ''Research'' in particular:

lol, what the hell is this? Do you actually believe in this guff or did you just google for the first thing that you thought (wrongly) sounded clever?

Yep, I believe and refused the dental work about six years ago due to the problems in later life with lowered immune system. I also believe that amalgam fillings, crematoria and smelting-works poison us as mercury is one of the most toxic metals known to man. Silly me.....

I have heard this rumour that Emnes and Davies are coming in and that Wes is on his way. If Wes goes it will be a big mistake, he is one of our only PL quality players imo.

Well, I''d have to see the evidence and apply objective evaluation before writing anything off, just as I have with Chris Martin.

Hughton was brought in to do a job so we have to let him do that job to see whether he is up to it. Let''s give him the time to succeed or fail. He was not my first choice but I''m willing to give him a chance.

Dont fancy Emnes but must admit I have been wondering about Wes. We seem to have an abundance of riches in midfield. I wouldnt be shocked if he

turned up at AVFC. Just hope we get a lump of cash if he does. Was talk of Hughton wanting to give him a new contract, gone quiet recently.
