Rvn and Beckham is the best combination

Beckham is very good. He knows how to make an average player become top world class player. Is very rare to have this skillset on a player. Majority of world class players do not possess this special skillset that Beckham has.

I rmb he miss penalty at the 90th minute and the opponent players surround him and bully him. Like mental torture.

those Arsenal hooligans :s13:


years later, when RVN was told that Martin Koewn lives in Oxford, he remarked "oh, I didn't know that. I thought you have to be smart to live around here." :s13:

that was because he celebrated in front of the arsenal fans i think, it was the same match too.

he did the same on international duty for holland. against some eastern european country i think, at first he also miss penalty, then the opponent defenders surround him and jeer him, then when he finally scored, he just pumped his hands in the sky in victory against the opponent defender. then referee ggave him yellow card, or was it a red card... i think is yellow card.

i remember Arsene Wenger calling Francis Jeffers a Fox in the box. but he only scored 4 goals in 22 appearances before moving out of Highbury.

Jeffers was called a fox in the box before he moved to Arsenal. His record in Everton was damn solid, as good as Vardy is now. But after the move he was a different man.

I remember one match even Henry lay a pity assist for him right in front of goal also he missed. Damn jialat.

Is Dimitar Bertatov consider a flop like many said? His goal rate of 1 goal every 2 games is actually respectable for a striker like him?

Felt that Bertatov was ok. Maybe it was his "lazy" style of play that fans didn't like. They didn't feel that he worked hard enough for the team.

his overall record was only 41 goals in 200+ appearances throughout his career.

he scored about 18-19 goals in 40+ matches for everton, good result but seriously it was too quick to call him fox in the box...

he had a tough time in Arsenal, can't really blame him though, he was overshadowed by Thierry Henry.

I agree that he had a tough time in Arsenal, but I disagree that it was because of Henry.

I remember Jeffers well because of all the hype surrounding him when he joined. He was given plenty of chances to shine, but he really really flopped. If there's any blame, have to blame Wenger for signing a one-season wonder.

hahah, well i also believe he was a flop, but i think at that time it was the starting of the foreign players invasion, so they needed to get in more english players, and they couldn't find anyone one.

i remember when rooney was also up and coming at Everton, i think arsenal also tried to buy him, but arsene "pedophile" wenger didn't wanna spend the money for him.

I love his mad skills & sibei calm style.

With Tevez running around non-stop & Ronaldo causing all sorts of mayhem, Berbatov was unfortunately hard done by. :o
