En masse? round up a posse ....

A preposterous statement to make - utterly wrong.
The constraints of how Ireland played ensured Aldridge would not get as many goal opportunities as he did at Liverpool.
He was hugely important to how we played - continuous runs out wide to receive the ball and provide an outlet, where he'd be based in the box and around the 18 yard line for Liverpool.
To suggest he "just went through the motions" is an insult to the man and grossly unfair.
There's a catalogue of games where Aldridge burst a gut for Ireland.
Some of this revisionism against some of our most loyal servants ridiculous.
John Aldridge was almost as lazy and ineffective as Kevin Doyle. Wait...
You may be a nice guy but please forgive me ArdeeBhoy when I tell you that your statement on John Aldridge, one of the greatest goalscorers in Liverpool (and I'm an Everton fan) and Ireland history, is as stupid a football comment as I've ever heard from anyone.....ever.
Fact!
It's just my opinion, but I really don't think he was at his best for us compared to his club form for Liverpool.
Certainly when I saw him, he might have been trying, but 'busting a gut', Naw.
out for a month after having his appendix out: http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/st...cernet&cc=5739
Aldo would have burst his appendix on the field.
Certainly vented his spleen in Orlando.
But ultimately blew off a lot of pointless hot air....
The more and more that this drags on the less it is beginning to look like Noble was considering joining us. I highly doubt there is anything to this at all.
has drummerboy lost all credibility on the site as a result?
Believe me when I tell you, the source couldn't be much more credible. But hey I guess we won't know for sure now until the new year.
Lets hope some journo has the gumption to ask Trap outright during an upcoming press conference. Although one would suspect that his English might become conveniently broken if there was some uncertainty.
P.S. DB i'm not for a minute suggesting that you are a WUM or whatever. Just becoming a bit sceptical is all.
Was asked today about Noble and O'Hara, said neither was prepared to commit and one agent had said his player would want a guaranteed starting place so don't see this happening anytime soon, still harbouring ambitions of making it with England obviously.
John Aldridge not caring:

Look at this stage I don't give a flying feck about Aldo.
Start yer own tribute thread or forum if he was that great (He wasn't for us.) in yer eyes.
