Johnnyrotten Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 If he wasn't defending enough he should have had a different role, off the striker or the Mark Davies type that hopefully Politic will take on. If he continues to get played out of position on the wing we'll all be criticising him in future about his workrate instead of enjoying what he brings to the attack. These talented players should be the focus of our attack, they win games. Eagles wasnt Prem class but he was exciting to watch on his day and one of the reasons for turning up for a game, he could create something, there are too many that arent capable of the goals and assists he conjured up, same as Ameobi and Mark Davies. I don't care about their 'workrate', within reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying that who am I to argue as his career went from strength to strength after leaving us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 For the record, I think Chris Eagles was a sort-arsed namby-pamby one-dimensional shit house. The very epitome of the modern day poncey footballer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyrotten Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 I'll give you the poncey footballer bit. But not sure about the 'modern' bit. I also enjoyed watching Mark Gavin, Jeff Chandler (Shirley), Scott Sellars, Claus Jensen, all in the same category. Plenty of examples at other clubs too, just part of the fabric of footballers, they cant all be Keanes, Taggarts and Spearings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevieb Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Chris eagles was decent at the level we were at half the time he just happened to be here when we dropped from Europe/prem to championship relegation battles. W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
