Donaldo, Denilson is a promising player with one of the highest passing success rates in the Premership, Nic is a also a decent striker with a decent amount of goals last season, which is all you could ask for a 21 year old 4th striker.


That old chestnut. Answer: If you pass 5-10 yard sideways passes the majority of the time, it is likely that you pass success rate will be higher than someone like Fabregas, who attempts longer more difficult passes.
Would prefer to play with denilson in 5-a-side tho

Eboue has probably taken the most stick out of the current squad and at times i will grant you he has been a bit of a joke! but i would like to give the man some major credit. After last season when he left the pitch to a chorus of Boos i wondered if that would be the end of him at Arsenal, having your own fans turn on you must be the worst feeling in football?
The lad got his head down, worked very hard and got himself back in contention, this shows he has real character, not only this but recently his performances have been nothing short of excellent, when he comes on he is always nice and positive, links up well and causes the opposition problems.
He has played at right back a few times this season and have to say that at this moment he would be ahead of Sagna, his defensive game has improved massively, he is playing with some confidence now and seems assured in everything he does, he had a great game there on tuesday, plus he offers far more going forward, and with this formation, support from the full backs is important, his crossing is better than Sagnas for a start, but i like the way he doesnt always look to sweep it into the box, he tries to play football and looks for the pass inside or tries to get to the line.
I personally think he should be given a little run at full back as he is looking better all the time, he absolutely loves playing for Arsenal too, you can see that, it means an awful lot to him, and unlike his mate who went to City he has realised his performances were below par and gone about improving that and showing the fans what he can really do. It seems he is well liked around the club too, all the players say he is funny and always up to things, so its good to have someone like that around!
The one thing he does need to do is learn to keep his head a bit more when he gets into the box as he tends to snatch at the ball a bit, but other than this he is doing well
Right, ive finished now, you can tell me im mad if you want?
you are absolutely correct - i hear he is the dressing room joker & all the players get on with him - me thinks he should be allowed some support

Exactly...Denilson's passing rate is of no consequence here. Only that people producing stats put him in the same league table as players like Fabregas, meaning he finishes higher than Fabregas and you quote his high success.
Why do you bring up the passing success of a player whose passing is nowhere near the most important quality he should have.

Radford says "so fucking what if he's the dressing room joker. he's a joke on the pitch and fucking useless.sycicsid wrote:Swale_Gooner1985 wrote:you are absolutely correct - i hear he is the dressing room joker & all the players get on with him - me thinks he should be allowed some support
Radford would also like to state that when he first arrived he was a good player. however that player has developed into one who now is at best poor.
players earn their support from the fans by producing on the pitch not by giving people a laugh. the thing that pisses Radford off is that people find his antics amusing whilst it is his performances that are the joke.
Because a dm's role is to win the ball back and be safe in possession, Denilson had high interception rate last season and continues to be safe in possession this season so he is doing that jobmarcengels wrote:Magic Hat wrote:As a dm? Denilson, as an attacking midfielder Cesc.![]()

Why bring in his interception rate now? I was simply replying to your remark that Denilson's passing rate was one of the highest. And it is one of the highest in statistics set against people who attempt much more difficult passes - what is so difficult to understand? I think this is clear.Magic Hat wrote:Because a dm's role is to win the ball back and be safe in possession, Denilson had high interception rate last season and continues to be safe in possession this season so he is doing that jobmarcengels wrote:Magic Hat wrote:As a dm?

It's like one darts player aiming for the 20 and the other aiming for bullseye.
If you cant argue on the original point I understand


Hadareud gets his stats from here. Knock yourselves out.
