Voronin (or: Why are our scouts so shit?)

[Strontium]

It was obvious to every single man jack one of us, long before he signed, that Andriy Voronin was shit, and that observation could be made from a single match he played against Blackburn in the UEFA Cup.

 

So what on earth made our scouts, who must have watched him even more often than that, think he'd be a good signing? Surely they should be able to see, after following his progress over months, that he was shite, if the average fan could see it from just 90 minutes?

 

Why can't our scouts see what the rest of us can?

[philyhamann]

I can't believe we signed such a shit player.

[Unrighteous]

Because Voronin is better than this... It's called a fucking slump and the only player that doesn't seem effected is Torres(and maybe Reina)

[Unrighteous]

I can't believe we signed such a shit player.

 

How soon we forget the Man of the Match performances that he's put in earlier in the season.

[philyhamann]

No, Voronin is just shit - slump or no slump.

[chrisbonnie]

How soon we forget the Man of the Match performances that he's put in earlier in the season.

 

you mean in the friendlies?

[philyhamann]

How soon we forget the Man of the Match performances that he's put in earlier in the season.

 

Against the mighty Toulouse, hell yeah! He is fucking awful, and its not surprise that he has been found out already.

[Guest Romano Polizia]

One word, Prozone.

[Thants]

Its probably difficult to tell how a player will react to roation and a different league. Sometimes you get it right, Albert, sometimes you get it wrong. There are glimpses of a good player, he's not been consistent enough.

The teams position both on and off the field isnt helping matters.

[bobhorse]

Its simple he was free signing and he will be sold on for a profit if he doesnt make it he isnt as bad as you make him out to be having said that he isnt gonner start for a top 4 side and it all comes back down to money

[Carradona]

4 goals in 21 Liverpool appearances. You call that a slump? Take your head out of your arse.

[Hooch]

Voronins had decent games but he's never put a man of the match performance in. Some say you get what you pay for and we payed nothing for him so...

[Lapskaus]

Reina? he was dreadful today

[Mendoza]

Because Voronin is better than this... It's called a fucking slump and the only player that doesn't seem effected is Torres(and maybe Reina)

 

It's not a slump. He's just bloody awful.

[Gav]

Baros and Cisse are prime examples .Both decent players , both decent goalscorers all played out of any form they had by benitez

Crouch ditto, gets a goal and doesn't make the bench .Subbed on 60 mins no matter what Kuyt is half the player he was and early season we were all marvelling how perfect a foil for torres Vorinin was .In my opinion Vorinins ok,A decent squad player,he's no Torres or Fowler but thenagain not many are .Whatever early form he had was dragged out of him by a manager that simply doesn't know how to utilise attaking players

(oh and to save the usuals response ...but valencia yadda yadda yadda)

:smile:

[WaltonRed]

dreadful, its not his fault though. We should never of signed him. Sell him to Celtic for 500k and get it over and done with.

[Elite]

I never rated him from the beginning, he scored a few goals but you could always tell he was shit.

[BENIRL]

Not good enough and when you see Kuyt replacing him it doesn't ecactly give you a lift either. Crouch is our second best striker and he doesn't even have to play to get that award.

[Unrighteous]

Crouch: 21 appearances with 6 goals and two assists(zero league goals)

Voronin: 20 appearances with 4 goals and three assists(three league goals)

Kuyt: 23 appearances with 6 goals and one assist(three league goals)

 

If one wears the tag... They all deserve it. Period.

[Elite]

Kuyt and Voronin are turd. Sell them both.

 

Use Babel as a striker and promote a youthie.

 

Torres, Babel, Crouch and Nemeth.

[James Dean]

Crouch: 21 appearances with 6 goals and two assists(zero league goals)

Voronin: 20 appearances with 4 goals and three assists(three league goals)

Kuyt: 23 appearances with 6 goals and one assist(three league goals)

 

If one wears the tag... They all deserve it. Period.

 

Torres 21(4) appearances with 17 goals and 3 assists.

 

Just wanted to state the obvious.

[Carradona]

Crouch: 21 appearances with 6 goals and two assists(zero league goals)

Voronin: 20 appearances with 4 goals and three assists(three league goals)

Kuyt: 23 appearances with 6 goals and one assist(three league goals)

 

If one wears the tag... They all deserve it. Period.

 

I was saying exactly the same as that before the Luton game although I think Crouch's stats don't tell a fair story.

 

I hated the hype on here from the very start I said that he was too slow and wasted chances.

 

Voromania my arse.

[rebel23]

i brought up the scouts months ago, they're a disgrace and should be held accountable

[Guest Romano Polizia]

Benitez has spent upwards of 150 million and we have just one world class player to show for it.

 

Try and spin that one.
