[Archived] Radosav Petrovic

[Bazzanotsogreat]

Petrovic will be a better CM than Jones, P Jones is not a midfielder end of.

Also the suggestipon that Jones is better than Wilshire is simply preposterous.

[koi]

SSN understands that Petrovic is currently in the toilet having a poo. There is no news of its colour or consistency, but the Opta stats say it will take him 6 minutes 48 seconds from locking the cubicle door.

Seriously, all Phillipl's guff is simply desperate. He's a young man on the verge of a move out of his home country. So why shouldn't he stay near his family and friends for a few days until the paperwork is sorted out? Some people just want to believe that the world is going to end, there are ulterior motives at work etc.

SSN has just confirmed that his poo was a Type 3 on the Bristol Stool Chart, this of course will be contradicted by certain members on this board.

I did not say that Wilshere is better than Xavi and Iniesta BUT he is certainly MILES ahead of Jones.

"Miles ahead" in what terms ... talent, experience ? He's played more games than Jones but that is the only comparison you can make.

[K-Hod]

These comparisons of Wilshere and Jones are a bit silly now. Wilshere's had one full season of starting for Arsenal, but he and Jones are completely different players, and now Wilshere is an England regular, where Jones it not!

Talent and experience.

Proving himself at Bolton and now at Arsenal.

Young PJ has shone in an average Rovers side, Wilshere in a champions league team vs world class opposition. All my opinion but I honestly feel that Wilshere is the most promising English player since a certain Gazza. Back to the original point I say this thinking that PJ will become a top class centre half and looking at both as an England fan.

To be fair Wilshere only had to get in front of Barry, whereas Jones has to replace Terry or Ferdinand. Which is the tougher task? Also Wilshere plays for a London club and Jones was at little Blackburn.

I think they are just as good as each other. In the future I think Jones will turn out to be a better defender than Wilshere will a midfielder though.

are we not allowed, to announce the signing of Petrovic untill his work permit is granted? genuine question this?

[Eddie]

Well there's always the chance that he might not get his work permit...and then we would look a bit stupid.

I would also imagine that we aren't allowed to officially transfer his rights until the permit comes through, so it probably isn't the proper thing to do.

[Iceman]

cheers Eddie

Hmm not true really. Parker has replaced Barry as the defensive midfielder.

Parker has had like what? A two game run in the team?

Does this include the hand washing? All employees must wash hands before returning to work!

Wilshere the best midfelder since Gazza? Just says alot how bad youth english football is at the moment, I mean Petrovic for under £3m, and 22 years old, if he was english he would had cost around £18m, look at Henderson, I do believe that Petrovic is just as good as Henderson.

If Petrovic was english we wouldn´t been waiting confirmation for signing him. If it is work permit it´s understandble. If we have to sell Niko first before signing him it´s ridicoulos.

No it didn't. It was from entering the cubicle to exiting with his trousers done up. So he's nowhere nesr the standards of Bernt 'Depthcharger' Schneider (av. 4 min 22 sec.), Cobi 'Turbo Turd' Jones (av. 4 min 17 sec) or the legend that is John 'Breezeblock' Aldridge (av. 3 min 48 sec.).

Anyway, to get back on topic, I'm looking forward to seeing him play. Whilst I'm not of the view that he's the next Vieira or Xavi he does seem to have potential.

[braddock]

We'll definitely win if they're only playing with one man! Well, canine.

Why is it taking so bloody long?! He won't be ready for weeks after he signs.

[deryck guyler's spoon]

Sorry if this has already been posted.

[Heinz]

Apparently he has not played enough international matches for his country to receive approval to play in the UK immediately. A new meeting is scheduled next week where hopefully he will receive this approval.

[alexanders]

Partizan stating he will depart with them and become a Rovers player today I think. It is from the offical webpage and I tried to translate, but it wasnt easy.

Mada će se pred današnji put za Moskvu Radosav Petrović presvući u orlovsko perje, njega svi računaju kao novog člana Blekburna, pa prvotimaca iz šampionskog sastava više nema na spisku Vladimira Petrovića Pižona. Podatak je razočarao Dragana Đurića do te mere da podiže glas protiv selektora.
