Reyes- Smart bet for the best young player for 2004-2005!

[shinsen]

This boys dribbles and dances like a dream.

In 2004- 2005 season defenders in the English leagues will not know what to make of him.

Another masterstroke by Wenger. I raise my drink to that. :respect 8)

I saw a pic of Reyes being stretchered off during the Ajax match. Does anyone have info on that? I hope it's nothing serious.

Also, what in the world was Reyes doing wearing Nike cleats? I thought he was a Kelme boy through and through.

Reyes was taken off on a stretcher but came back on soon after and was fine.

He really is an excellent player. I'm so glad we signed him and I would not be surprised if he is young player of the year. This kid is gonna be god for us for the next few years!

 

[godfather]

clearly hes been playin better and better, also ive confident in him more and more!
Another Great Signing by AW ;D

 

[Anonymous]

hes growing in confidence and gettin used to aresnal's style of play
hope he and van persie sets teh premiership alight

I'll take that bet. Rooney? C. Ronaldo? Hate to admit it, but CR is farther along, had a great Euro.

We'll see how Reyes does. I think he needs a while yet to settle. He has yet to really do much against top-flight competition. Didn't play at Euros, didn't do anything in 4 mos. in the league. He's exciting but preseaon doesn't mean anything. My guess is he'll start much like he ended last year and then come on strong in the second half.

But I hope you're right!

At least Reyes did well enough to get the Player of the Tournament award.

he has moved up in the world. no offence to kelme

 

[calvinngai88]

Reyes stated that the Kelme boots are his luckiest. If he needs the luck, he'll wear them.

christiano ronaldo was totally handled by ashley cole during england-portugal match. I suppose Reyes will be better than him in this coming season. Remember Ronaldo was at utd at the beginning of the season and reyes had only a handful of matches. Let's not forget Reyes's performance has been awesome last season as well and I think will be a good canditate for young player of the season

 

[Arjan]

How about Arjen Robben?

 

[calvinngai88]

We'll see what Lauren or a new RB can do against him, or at least Ljungberg or Pennant to run back and help out since Robben does have the pace to outrun Lauren and some tricky moves which enable him to whip in some crosses out of nowhere.

I think he needs a while yet to settle.

He had that 'while' last season, and towards the end looked very good, sharp, and scored 2 goals against Fulham and Portsmouth. Vital goals as well, they were our only goals in the respective games, we might not have gone unbeaten.

He has yet to really do much against top-flight competition

Those 3 goals against Chelsea were shit, I agree :?

My guess is he'll start much like he ended last year and then come on strong in the second half.

He started weakly last season because he was brought into a brand new league, with a new language, new teammates and a new home. I hardly expected him to be knocking in hatricks.

I guess those goals against Chelsea don't count for much, then?

We saw glimpses of it in those 4 months, like his 2 goals against Chelski in the FA cup and when he was taken on against Man Utd in the FA cup as well. He had good performances against the geordies away and against Pompey in our 5-0 win, but I don't suppose you can count those as top-flight competition.

 

[USArsenal]

he has played top competition before... um, didnt he tear Real Madrid apart when he played for Sevilla? i would consider that top flight.... even if it was in La Liga... my only concern is that he has looked great in the pre-season thus far, but he has also done so while being the #1 forward.... will he be the same once TH comes back? i hope so.. i guess only time will tell...

 

[calvinngai88]

Yea, the Sevilla's humiliation of Real Madrid was one of Reyes top, top performances. I still remember what Zidane said to one of the Sevilla defenders, "Is that fu*king bastard playing like this just because of us?", something like that.

 

[USArsenal]

he also asked if he was scooting around on a motorcycle....

 

[calvinngai88]

Which means Zidane couldn't catch up with Reyes! Hahaha ;D Isn't that expected actually?
