Bothroyd or Gestede ...........You decide POLL

Wed Oct 05, 2011 12:37 pm

Yes another Nukes Poll :lol: :lol: So if you had a choice of having in our team at the moment Bothroyd or Gestede who would you pick ?

I would still have to pick Bothroyd im afraid! He has the ability to set this division alight - which he done last season along with Adel Tarabt, I prefer to take a player who has experience in this league and is guaranteed to bang them in. Yes he was a little lazy, and whinged alot - but in my opinion the positives outweight the negatives. I dont doubt though - that give it a year or two and Gestede will establish himself as a decent acquisition for any team in the championship! :ayatollah:

:o :o :o A little lazy Craig ? He was f*cking lazy with a capital L. What i cant understand he was one reason why we didnt go up last season as he couldn't be bothered to try :shock: But what really shocks me is the fact that supporters still like him :shock: Please tell me WHY ????? How can the positives outweigh the Negatives when 90% of him is Negatives.

I thought Jay did a good job here but I also believe that he was part of the annual failure that underlines the Jones years at Cardiff City.

For me Rudy Gestede is the embodiment of the spirit and ethic that Malkay Mackay has brought to Cardiff City, I cannot imagine Jay Bothroyd ever staying on the pitch for 25 minutes with a hamstring injury. Not only did Rudy do that but he was still winning headers both in attack and defence, yes Jay has the ability to set the Championship alight but that ability faded towards the end of every season he was with us.

I wish Jay all the best but his time here was over and I for one look forward to the future and Rudy Gestede being a big part of that. :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Rudy every day of the week, far better potential and a worker.
Jay was a lazy arrogant ******

haha. Not quite going to plane eh Nukesy.

If it wasnt for him pre-xmas and before his injury we wouldnt have been anywhere near the top 2.

Right now, Jay Bothroyd, we'd be top 6 at the mo with Jay in the side NQAT. Gestede is potential, a year, two years time he could be the finished product. But right now Jay would tear through this league with out team.

Re: Bothroyd or Gestede ...........You decide POLL

Wed Oct 05, 2011 1:29 pm

for right now it has to be jay, rudy is far from the finished product and isnt capable of anything that jay has done the last two years,

i think the only people voting for rudy are the jay haters who hate his lazyness, but he is still a better player right now

The question was. Who would you prefer to have in the team. Thats why I answered Rudy.

Bothroyd is better, right now. But i wouldnt piss on him in a fire

Re: Bothroyd or Gestede ...........You decide POLL

Would'nt like to say, until When and if, Rudy get's to be a regular starter in the side. I've only seen a few minutes here and there of him.

Exactly Taffy. I am not questioning Jay's talent as i know how good he is and can be. But what i dont like is his work ethic and his attitude which stinks to high heaven. And his contempt he did show for our Club last season. Personally i hope he never pulls on a CCFC shirt again as he has no right to wear our shirt again. He treated our shirt like shit and i have a right to dislike him.

Bothroyd is a much better player, you can't argue over that. Not saying that I would want him back though.

Re: Bothroyd or Gestede ...........You decide POLL

Wed Oct 05, 2011 5:09 pm

bothroyds the better player, no doubt about it.

Re: Bothroyd or Gestede ...........You decide POLL

Wed Oct 05, 2011 5:13 pm

Bothroyd was the more talented player.

Gestede works harder, wins more headers and is more likeable.

End of debate.

people are picking gestede over bothroyd need to get real! Gestede has not even played 90 mins in the championship yet! Yes bothroyd is hated by many on here after the way he left, but he is quality at this level!

Re: Bothroyd or Gestede ...........You decide POLL

In terms of footballing ability there is no question, Bothroyd was one of the most tallented footballers I have ever seen play for City. In terms of attitude Gestede wins that hands down would Bothroyd have chased and closed the West Ham defender down to create Millers goal? The answer is no!

His attitude and commitment after he got capped was shocking I will never forget the way he bottled the challenge in the 2nd leg of the play offs against Reading at home.

Gestede may not have his talent but he fits into Malky's work ethic Bothroyd would have walked off against Leicester when Rudy battled on :old:

Battling on against Leicester was stupidity from both Rudy and Malky. Made him worse.

I agree there but it showed his commitment which should be applauded reminded me of Phil Stant at Middlesborough away in the Cup in 1994!

Go off. He couldnt walk let alone run, he was making the injury worse. It didnt stop the tide of Leicester attacks so IMO absolute stupidity.

Bothroyd by a good few miles.

But rudy has come in and is looking a promising asset :)

My point Gestede wins hands down even though at the moment he doesn't have the technical ability of Bothroyd :ayatollah:
