Statues at the ground

[Shaelumstash]

I think it looks like him from this angle, got to bear in mind he didn’t walk around day to day screaming his head off, so it’s not going to look like him posing for a photo!

I personally would have gone for the moment he struck the ball, but I guess this better sums up that moment of pure unbridled joy.

That’s a feeling I’ll never forget, and I’d rather take that feeling from the statue than worry if it looks more like Toni Kroos.

Not seen it in person at the ground yet but in the pics it looks a very poor likeness. Kun deserves better than that.

Statue looks dreadful. It needs sending back and making good. I’ve got to say the unveiling was pretty pathetic as well.

Pretty mad in this day and age where we can 3D print and even clone animals yet we can't get get a face remotely right on a statue

Have been this morning IMO a very poor effort looks more like a Elvis tribute, to be fair I'm not sure there are very many statues that are a likeness of the person it's supposed to represent.

It's awful, crappy materials, something Ratners would probably have knocked out for £60 and still made £55 profit.

Looks absolutely nothing like him.

It's an insult.

On it not looking like him (which a few are saying), I disagree myself, the second I saw it i thought Aguero. The pose, the build, the lot. Anyone seen it in person?

On the first part of your post, c'mon, that's just fucking stupid. I know it was a joke, but lets not get silly.

The lack of likeness is a shame. Is it meant to celebrate a moment in time more than a person?

The face , the shirt , it was swinging above his head on the day , can barely see it from the front of the statue , the others looked like them but this one doesnt look like him at all

Beg to differ, maybe its the angles shown from, but will admit the other two have a more obvious likeness, although we have also been seeing them a lot longer now, i remember many similar comments on resemblance initially.

 

[Coatigan]

I like it.
