Thread: Musing on John Robertson, dunno why.

  1. #1

    Musing on John Robertson, dunno why.

    Fat Scotsman who looked like Rab Nesbit having a bad day but, on that left wing, seemed to have hips and feet like Nijinsky (the dancer, rather than the horse, I suppose).

    Why don't they make players like that anymore? Cheap too apparently.
    "Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.

    "But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."

    The problem with Marwood, if I remember rightly, is that Limpar came along and suddenly made Marwood seem very boring and ordinary.

    Marwood fell out with Graham over his PFA work otherwise we might not have signed Anders. Spot on that he eclipsed BM once signed though

    Ah, Anders...

    “Other clubs never came into my thoughts once I knew Arsenal wanted to sign me.”
