Nigel De Jong.

Glad the Schlong did Aloso! That shithouse conned the referee so many times in the Prem and got players booked/sent off, a typical 'Can dish it out but doesnt lie it back'. Nige is our player, couldnt give a shit what other people think. Most people believe the shit thats written in the Rag tops nowadays about us, so fcuk em I couldnt care less about them.

Don't agree, if it was against England yes. I think overall we have a decent standard of ref's here.

When there allowed to referee correctly and not directed as they are by the Premier league.

Personally Im not sure he will be in the team that much anyway, with yaya, barry, viera and milner (once we sign him).

Well if Barry is getting the nod before NDJ - well surely that can't be right can it??

Would it be wrong to chant:

N.D.J is a Kung Fu genius?

 

[Neil McNab]

Mark my words, he'll be very harshly treated this coming season for his "tackle" on Xabi Alonso and refs will be biased and hold no hesitate in booking him unfairly in my opinion and given his "playing style" I think it opens up the chance for refs to sort of clamp down on his effectiveness for us so to speak.

Does anyone feel the same way and hold this fear about him?

I'm hoping he's a seldom used sub, never rated him as a footballer, Gelson outshone him at the world cup!
His fans were saying before the world cup that he plays in an amazing Holland side, it's ridiculous to say good enough for Holland but not good enough for City. Well I'd say Holland failed, not because of their short comings up front but because of players like De Jong who dragged them back into the dark ages.

check the opta stats for the last year and see.

NDJ = 6.3 (meaning average, nothing spectacular or out of the ordinary).
Barry = 5.3 (below average, some faults, out-of-touch).

Thats SSN stats btw. Personally think Nigel was more of a 7+ IMO?!

Sad to say de Jong is DAMAGED GOOD.
dJ & van Bommel are overwhelmingly widely criticised & labelled as thugs (and should have rightly been send off) all over the world not just by media but by football & non-football fans.
Mind you these include not only fencesitters ( non-partisan crowd) but also by A LARGE NUMBER OF Dutch fans.
The thuggery (epitomized by dJ's Bruce Lee kick & van Bommel continual hacking) & rotating fouls especially by the 2006 WC Dutch veterans in the first half , turned -off a huge number of fencesitters & Dutch supporters & by the end of the Final were relieved to see Spain win the WC.
Yes, Its an overwhelming worldwide consensus & opinion even endorsed by the likes of Cryuff.
Now how can we defend the indefensible & just say that its just rags opinion that we have to contend with!
Yes, lets defend dJ with a seige mentality & FORGO our blueprint or masterplan to be the Best Football Club with an International reputation & following.
By trotting out dJ we signalled to the world that we want to play UGLY. Is that what our new owner & most citizens want?
