...Is not that bad. I'm not getting carried away after his hat-trick, but I think he gets a lot of bad rep. He works well in Arsenal's current system as a target man (the only guy who could play that role), he's big, holds the ball up well and I think we all forget, he's like 12 or something. If his finishing was better I think he'd be a class player and he has time to work on it.
Yeah he is a decent player, but when he misses so many chances, he's bound to get criticised.
I agree but he is to big headed...
true, i think wenger even said that about him. Sure i read that somewhere
Yeah he has the biggest Ego in football but that's not really a bad thing. Take the other game where he missed everything. Most players would be down after that. He just ignored it then scored a hat-trick. I think his ego will improve him. Saying that, he will never be the player he thinks that he is although I think he will in 5 years time be a very good striker. He's only 22 at the moment and he has all the basics for a good player. His finishing is very poor though at the moment and like Rooney did with his heading, Bendtner seriously needs to work on that.
I think the lad is awful, i realy do.
He's abysmal.
The lad is awful eh? How come? Heskey has fashioned an international career from being "awful." Bendtner works in a system well, even if he's not the sharpest finisher.
Give him 20 chances and he'll score 1. Heskey is also abysmal.
Overrated. Although I do like him for some reason lol
When we played Egypt we tried Rooney upfront with Defoe. Nothing came off for us, infact, we were losing. Then, Fab Cap brought Crouch, a target man, on and he won the game. It's the importance of players like Crouch, Heskey and Bendtner to their teams that wins them matches.Quote:

His performance is improving lately but he's not going to be as good as the likes of Arshavin or Fabregas

Bendtner is also 6-7 years younger than either of them :PQuote:

He needs to go out on loan again, as with Vela.
Aye he does waste a lot of chances but that's something he can work on. Vela won't get a game when RVP is back and if we get Chamakh so yeah I think he should but not Bendtner as he gives us something different.
Peter Crouch is a good player though. Bendtner isn't.

I agree, he always climbs on people when he's jumping in the air.Quote:

I dont hate him he helped us out in the Championship and when i seen him playing for us i actualy thought he was going to turn into somthing decent, but i realy dont rate him.
Maybe he will be better in the future.
Yeah lol. The comparison with Heskey is a good one - both are lucky to make something out of 1/10 chances. In fact Heskey is actually useful in a more mid-fielding sort of way.Quote:
