An oldy who could surprise us

[joeboy 3,163]

By all acounts Ooze has been one of the stand outs of pre season training , and if his comments on SEN this afternoon are anything to go by , then he could be making many of his critics eat their words .

He spoke very eloquently about his desire to make a significant contribution to the team , wherever DB chose to play him ( though he professed a preference to playing forward ).

A solid , and uninterrupted pre season , coupled with the prospect of imminent retirement ,have , according to the man himself , opened his eyes to the possibilities of being able to recapture his outstanding form of years gone by , and he is plainly excited about the prospects of playing alongside a large number of talented young recruits .

There's a small part of me that never gives up on anyone, and will always just silently wait for him to return to his 2003 form.

Unlike many of the cynical old buggers on here and 'ology, I do believe in complete hope for the best, even if I am setting myself up for a fall. That definitely applies here.

Hey, don't discriminate against us young cynics

I must say I've lost my patience with Yze, but I'd be thrilled if DB manages to change him. There are not many players more talented than Yze,and if his skills are applied in the right way than we'll be a much better team next year. He could easily kick 40+ goals from the pocket in 2008.

It's probably just me, but when I quickly look at the title of this thread I could swear it says an 'an old lady who could surprise us' ... probably just me.

and to all of my critics...namely the deetox fellow i think it was..."yze is not a leader, oh no, you are going to shut me down now"....i think his recent selection into the leadership group only helps to prove my point mate

'Imminent retirement' is the key phrase. The clock is ticking.

Now's the time Adem pulls the finger out and puts 4 quarters together in every game for more than one season.

Enough cruising around the wing going forward, going back and kicking the occasional miracle goal from whichever position ND played him in.

Give him a regular position and I'd back DB to sort him out early.

If he doesn't deliver it's back to Shepp.
