Nouble Making Progress


He certainly wasn't ready to lead the line on his lonesome last season (another absurd Zola decision) and I doubt we will see much of him over the next season either, but it's good to see Nouble firing home two for England's U19s.

There will be some who will jump on this and call for Nouble to play in the Prem, but hopefully Avram will exercise more common sense. There is a world of difference between scoring against 19 year old kids and doing the business in the Prem. Nouble wasn't even considered good enough to start for Swindon last season!

Hopefully, Avram will farm him out on loan again, and allow the kid to develop outside of the media spotlight. He has potential, no question, so let's not rush things, let's bring him to the boil carefully. Never hurry a Nouble!

Now why couldn't we get Martin Jol? Or maybe we could have, had there been a proper search and an interview process.

You think Sulli will use Nouble's two goals to send him out on loan, or use it as a reason to sell Cole?

Stani, i truely hope you are wrong. There is no way Nouble is ready to fill Cole's boots yet. Perhaps in another year or two, but not yet.

because if we got Jol our temperamental fans such as yourself would point out his failure towards the end of his Tottenham career, taking Bremen to only 5th place, and losing out in the eredivise to a failed former English manager. One does get the impression that anything the club does will not be good enough for you guys.
