So it seems we need to leave someone out of the Chumps league squad again. Personally I would leave out Caballero as he is the least likely to be needed.

Ludo

Too risky.

Sagna possibly or either Dzeko or Jovetic.

Ha Ha, could reignite Richard Wright's career! Has he ever played for the first team?

Only in friendlies I think. Too risky to hang Willy out to dry, I'd leave Jovetic out, he hasn't really pushed on this season and let's face it if anyone is going to get injured it's likely to be him.

I am becoming somewhat disappointed by Jovetic, more show pony rather than thoroughbred.

That said Dzeko has been replaced by a (hopefully) like but superior player; Bony.

So it is bye bye Dzeko for CL and City this Summer.

Jovetic apparently (MEN).

That's him on his way.......?

clevblue

Ludo was 1/3 right.

Jovetic keeps saying "You'll see the best of me this season" but it doesn't happen - this will be a big blow to him

Hark at thee "I liked Archer before it was even created!"


Guess tht's a good bye to Jovetic this summer then!

goat

im so far ahead i dont actually like it anymore

jovetic is class but just has not done it here, another bojinov

Ludo

Another player who shone in a slightly less competitive league but just doesn't have enough to do it here.

Ludo

Skill, brains, pace, power.....take your pick.

well he does have enough skill for england, not seen his gcse results so not sure about brains, power  is more of a rugby thing unless its a slightly less technical league like england and a few slow players have made a career out of football

strange tho, no pace, no skill and runs down blind alleys, sums up milner yet people rave about him

Ludo

Wether or not you rate the premier league as less 'technical' is pretty much irrelevant, that's the league he's failing to play in so that's where he has to be judged.

As for power, it's relative. Obviously he doesn't need the power of a rugby player but even a smaller player like Aguero has a physical presence that Jovetic lacks.

Academics aside jovetic's countless (and fruitless) flicks, tricks, skips and dives show he's not savvie enough to adapt. Perhaps a less pacey, slower Serie A suits him better now that it's not the elite league it was a few years ago.

only as irrelevent as your lack of knowledge of serie a

ill leave you to have a picture-off with the chav lad, cheers

Ludo

I have quite an extensive knowledge of Serie A thanks.

goat

not sure wiki helps that much

Ludo

No but being italian does

nice to see you back len


its like saying being scottish makes you an expert on heroin

gavin

A mistake I think. Caballero is less likely to be needed than Jovetic. Richard Wright is an experienced keeper and Caballero's last appearance wasn't exactly inspiring.

goat

theres a reason wright has not played for 20 years tho gav, hes shite

Ludo

I'd imagine it's only Sagna's recent good performance against Chelsea that's kept him from being dropped from the list, but in fairness Jovetic hasn't really done. Himself any favours.

gavin

He was pretty good for a few years. No point in him having a contract at his age if there is no faith in him at all.

goat

chances are he doesnt cost much to keep around and he makes a cracking pot of tea

would make more sense to have one of the kids 3rd choice tho

Ludo

He certainly would after that free kick anyway.
