I remember that leading up to the match the coaching staff told the players not to try to chip Neuer in a 1v1 and of course that's exactly what Welbeck went for.

Bingo. You'll ever only see few players giving him a chip. Messi the obvious stand out.
 
Good viewing tonight.

I remember being completely gutted when we sold him. We're not missing out at all though, it seems like.

He does everything well except finishing, what a frustrating player he's become

He always was.
 
Welbeck is not a striker - never has been - never will be. Has zero composure. Not something you can teach, unfortunately for him.

I was just going to post this.

Why is Welbeck suddenly such a shit finisher now? He always was! I used to say decent outside the box, but clueless in it or at the byline.

I never had a problem with him leaving. Good kid he would run all day but his finishing has always been Bambi on Ice.

They've renamed the Welbeck thread again. Now it reads "Welbeck: half bodybuilder half donkey"
This probably applies to some of the resident Welbeck fans as well.

Oh there were so many on here who got their knickers in a twist over his sale. We were told we would regret selling him, how he would prove what a good striker he actually was, once he was played in his position. People would come with the silliest of defenses, how he did many so many 'right things' on the pitch and how it was 'unreasonable' to expect him to score goals. Seems like he has a similar legion of fanboys at Arsenal.
 
I'd slip Ty a few quid to bury Wenger. If Ty exploded and called Wenger a cnut, it'd be the highest viewed video on AFTV.

Thats bull. Wasnt there a clip a while back where he bragged about getting paid. Something like "thats what robbie pays me for"

Guys a clown. I dont mind the others but he annoys me

Exactly. There's no way he's not getting paid.
"oh there's not difference between me getting 700,000 views and some one else getting 153 views. If he actually believes that, he must be exceptionally dopey.

Why do they do it to themselves constantly and set themselves up for ridicule with these predictions and digs? keep Would love to see the responses to that.

That's his selling point. If he were to magically talk sense on Twitter or on AFTV, nobody would give two $hits about him.

There's a reason we all love watching AFTV - they're a bunch of jokers who give us some laughs.

It's like being a defender who does everything well except for keeping the ball clear of his goal :lol:

The parallels between Welbeck and Lingard are obvious. Some people let sentimentality cloud their judgement.

Had a look at the vid, as I've long expunged the memory, despite being at that game.
Incredible to try and chip from there, he was spark through and could easily have rolled it either side!

That is one hell of a run! And even the Watford game, the easiest one is a derby!
Hope they get something in at least one of the games v 3 big teams though!

If we had got more for him it would have been great. But, yea, terrible in front of goal.

I remember the Irish pundits saying after he tried to chip Neurer against Bayern, that players like Ronaldo and Van Niestelrooy, if they were one on one with the goaly, you could count on them to bury the ball. With Welbeck, you just cant depend on him to score.

Yeah, I remember well. At that moment I was fully aware that he's not a great player, same as Fortune against Milan. He was sold in the summer

Why's he's got a hang up with United? Tottenham are their rivals.

Still trying to the live the glory days of Henry et al. by getting a bit of a United rivalry going. Must be depressing knowing they're not even getting a 'boom' period this year, just the 'bust'.

Thats amazing. I would love it if we got our difficult away games early on in the season. Asnl always seem to have the difficult away games in the first half of the season. It would be great if they stood a chance to win the league!
