More positives

[Mellowhoop]

Sorry...Are we seriously comparing Gorkss to Upson here?

It's like saying Hulse is a better option than Carlton Cole. Ok, Upson (like Cole) isn't the best Prem player in his position, but he's clearly better than any player we have for that role. That much is a fact.

Upson has 21 England caps, rightly or wrongly, and over 200 games experience in the Premier League, winning one league trophy along the way.

Gorkss has spent his career to date playing in Latvia, Sweden and the second tier of English football.

How is this even a topic of conversation?

Cause this bloke don't go enough games to have a proper discussion

But it would of been alright for us to sign Danny Graham after a section of our fans decided to bottle him?

Goes 2 ways mate.

Touche.

Swede, I'm no fan of Upson. Woeful for England, too slow....but he's miles better than what we have.

[swede]

Erm.. They were;


Arsene Wenger has not ruled out the possibility of a short-term deal for the former Arsenal defender Matthew Upson.

Let´s see if he´s playing for the Gunners next season...maybe together with Sol.

Upsons ability is, and has always been, limited. The last couple of years Upson has been sh_te. Arsenal interest - maybe they were, maybe they weren´t, but they were also rumours about Sol C...so... Gorkss has played 35 times for Latvia, Upson 21 for England. No brainer for u. Ok, thank god you´re not in charge.

Are you now saying Latvia are on a level par with England? They are as close to us as we are to Spain.

[MattyRangers]

No. No. Yes - but... Yes and what a WC he had.

Surely the fact he was in the WC alone sets him worlds apart from Gorkss? And are we talking about the same WC he scored in? Hmmm. I like Gorkss, but seriously we cant really comapre him with an England international.

No, but he has played against many of the players that Upson been up against - and often getting good reviews. What about Upson when he has been playing for England?

[BennyBoyRs]

For Matthew Upson?

[swede]

[WeAreQPR12]

Same question to u: How many games last season did u see Matt U?

[BennyBoyRs]

Yes

Once at Upton Park with my uncle, and also a few times on TV. Not that it would change my mind if i'd seen him 30 times. He is simply a better defender.
