I know you're talking about Fat Frank but... where's Jefferson Mena?
NYCFC In Talks With Peruvian Forward Raúl Ruidíaz
- Thread starter D_RoyJenkins
- Start date
Taking the peeping Lampard photos?
Jokes aside, he is as MIA as Lampard, probably even worse as Mena is not hurt and has just disappeared. It's as if he is dead to PV after he pulled him 30 mins into that game.
If he comes that's his chant
(to the tune of Guantanamera)
HOT MUG OF COCOA!
YOU'RE SUCH A HOT MUG OF COCOA!
Is the peruvian league anything special? Can't imagine the talent level is much better than Mendoza, and I don't think we need another Mendoza. I think we are stuck where we are until we cut the dead weight.
Someone did report something along these lines though that he was out of training meeting about a green card issue, maybe the EOS article or somewhere on the twitter verse.
is this common practice in peru?
well see if this happens....i guess PV really likes wing play.
We definitely have depth on the wing - as long as you consider Shelton, Taylor, Mendoza and McNamara wing players. I would argue that Villa is too. But oh well.
But if this guy is better than those guys - go get him. Depth only means something if you have talent. I think we lack talent almost everywhere on the field right now.

Thanks.
It's interesting does this mean PV prefer TMac on the wing and only player him there because he didn't have better options? Does he see Harrison as a mid? I think clearly Villa wants to play centrally and PV prefers him there. If those broad assumptions are ture that leaves us with Mendoza, Shelton and Taylor as our only true wingers and Tyalor seems to have fallen out of favor.

I dunno, if we had another striker that was someone near as capable as Villa to take pressure off him, we might score more often. I'm not sure Mendoza is the answer. Would love to see Mullins more, but it is what it is.
Until we find a striker that Villa trusts to pass to (TMac seems to be trusted and Shelton a bit more than before), Villa will simply shoot the ball once the net is in his peripheral vision.... And we'll continue to have 18-20 shots a game with maybe only 4-5 on goal.
Hadn't read down the thread. Lol

I can understand how one might not have heard of Paddington Bear, but kind of mindboggled that someone with the handle PaddingtonB is not familiar.
Anyway, a bit more context for you:
"Paddington Bear is a fictional character in children's literature. He first appeared on 13 October 1958 and has featured in more than twenty books written by Michael Bond and illustrated by Peggy Fortnum and other artists. The friendly bear from deepest, darkest Peru—with his old hat, battered suitcase (complete with a secret compartment, enabling it to hold more items than it would at first appear), duffle coat and love of marmalade—has become a classic character from English children's literature. Paddington books have been translated into 30 languages across 70 titles and sold more than 30 million copies worldwide."

Lol, I'm fully aware of Paddington Bear. My brain cells were a bit delayed - hadn't yet read through the thread for topic context.
