Good post on Blanc. I had my misgivings about him being hired thinking Ibra was going to walk all over him but he does seem very focused this campaign. More so than in previous years. If the story is indeed true, than credit does go to Blanc for listening to a player like Silva & changing tactics. It's not something you do of every player or in every circumstance but when it's player like Silva you at least listen.
I had my doubts as well, I really thought he would struggle egos and tactics. But you're right, if true, then major props to him. To be able to beside himself and be open minded, taking a players advice...something that will help strengthen the team. I know some people will look at the former and think that he was weak for having a player influence him like that but I really don't see it as so.
Bendtner is a better striker than half of the ones in the EPL.
He's actually great in the air, strong and can shoot pretty decently.
His speed is his only let-down.
He has talent. Even looking at him on the national level he has held his own. I do understand his frustrations about being played out of position and whatnot. Cerain actions just make things not work in his favor at all. Hope he can move to a decent club and get some quality playing time.
