English Wasted Talent
-
ya.. the most expensive youth player in England or was it the most ex youth SAF ever brought.. he live up to his billing is the next best thing untill another wonderkid call Ryan Giggs came thru the ranks.. after that was his drinking and gamble that ruin his football..Originally posted by marcteng:lee sharpe, remember him?
-
he was a good striker but super lazy lor.. still remember seeing him in Kallang Stadium during the 90s.. super cool but after playing for Liverpool his head turn too big for his neck.. another sad caseOriginally posted by CKeer:Wad about Stan Collymore?
He always score on his debut for every club he joined but i dont think he won any honour rite?
Cheers.

Matt Le Tissier had the ball skills of a Brazilian,that was why he seldom played for England.Originally posted by suckthumb.com:ya man.. Matt Le Tissier is also another wasted talent, he did so well in Southhamton that i dare said he was the reason why they managed to stay in EPL..the guy has so much talent in his pocket.. but sad that due to he die hard support for them, he remains as a Saint till he retired..really wonder how far will be go if he happens to play for the big three at his peak..
In England,hard work and good attitude is more important than the ability to score a 30 metre chip... -
Collymore later played for VIlla, Leicester & Bradford. His last club was some obscure Spanish outfit.Originally posted by suckthumb.com:he was a good striker but super lazy lor.. still remember seeing him in Kallang Stadium during the 90s.. super cool but after playing for Liverpool his head turn too big for his neck.. another sad case
THere was a period when he was treated for depression. The most recent news about him was about landing a part in Basic Instict II, which starred Sharon Stone. -
I agree with your assessment. Discipline is important. However, many young players let their ego take control.Originally posted by BrUtUs:alot of talent went downhill due to wrong attitude... if their head didnt get too big or they hv the discipline england would've more glory liao... -
alan shearer in his blackburn days, simply scoring machine!
-
ya he was a much bigger terror... but due to his DCL injury it slowed him down plus aging...Originally posted by 798:alan shearer in his blackburn days, simply scoring machine! -
John Aldridge, Chris Sutton, David bentley, Kevin Davies.

joey barton maybe but the england squad is full of superstars it is really hard to get in
powerful strikers are what england is lacking -
what abt man u alan smith?
read from soccernet that smith is going to be loaned out to div 1 club isnt it.
but why if smith is loaned out, who is going to cover for saha in case he get injured? rossi is now on loan to newcastle. -
oh yeah, i remembered a wasted talent, but he is a pseudo-englishman, his name is GP, his one and only talent is mouth of the east, king of trash talker. I reckon he is a wasted talent here.

his one and only talent is crappy views on his beloved chelsea, inspite of the contrary.

steve mcmanaman...his runs down the left flank for liverpool was so fantastic!!

alot of it will be depending on their manager.. probably because of Lee Sharpe and Keith Gillispe or whatever his name is (one of the player that went to Newscatle in exchange for Andy Cole) went offline because of their drinking and gambling problem that makes SAF tighten his control on his younger players.. maybe SAF is not someone that can raw talent as well as many other managers but moulding them into someone that dun dare to step out of line is something that many manager should learn from him..Originally posted by iveco:I agree with your assessment.

lets agree to disagree with whatever thats written in this thread.. -

Gazza... at his prime... he looks more Brazilian than English. Creative, skillful and aggressive.
and Matt Le Tissier.... should chk out many of his wonderful out of this world goals. Very clever player.. gd with his feet but slow on the turn.
