Pablo Osvaldo Appreciation Thread

[Tomwin Lannister]

If nobody knows he scored a brace for Italy last night. This season he's been a great player. He's scored a fantastic bi-cycle kick, a superb lob and now 2 goals for his country in the space of 3 games.

And on top of all that, he looks like Khal Drogo

The first one is Osvaldo

Pablooo Osvaldooo

The guy is doing very well and if he can keep up he'll partner Balotelli in the years to come because G.Rossi is overrated , Cassano is old
Destro is good but he's better atm and Pazzini is a sub

Hopefully he'll continue to do well. But his partner depends on what formation Italy prefer. In 4-3-3 I doubt Balo would be used and in a 3-5-2 it will probably be out of Balo/Giovinco for the role next to Osvaldo/Pazzini etc.

Osvaldo.

List of oriundi to have won WC finals for Italy

1934: Raimundo Orsi, Enrique Guaita, Luis Monti (Argentina)
1938: Michele Andreolo (Uruguay, which is basically Argentina)
1982: No outside help
2006: Camoranesi (Argentina)
2014: Osvaldo?

[Eivindo]

always liked him

[Tomwin Lannister]

I'll make a list for his disciples

[Eivindo]

i made a thread about live chat and instantly it gets locked wtf

im on that list tommy

[zarola]

i hate him.. just thought I'd share. he has his bursts of brilliance, but his brace was unimpressive and he's overall an average, unimpressive player, just like a player like Matri is.

[Tomwin Lannister]

It's ok Eivindo, you're on my list now you get special privelages. Let's just say you won't get any thread trouble from here on in

[Eivindo]

It looks like I got illuminati on my arse, cause they just closed my feckin thread just like that!

Matri has nothing on Osvaldo. Im just waiting for Osvaldo to explode this season or the next

[Tomwin Lannister]

Don't worry. You're one of us now.

[McAgger]

Sign me up.....What a sexy beast

[Eivindo]

hard to beat that "Storia di un grande amore" tune. I gotta admit, its hard not to sing along

[Tomwin Lannister]

Juveminatiiiiii... storia di un grande amoreeee

[Eivindo]

Don't worry. You're one of us now.

Im actually planning on saving up for an epic pony tail too. Balzaretti was the inspiration for the pony tail, but this helps also. Might take me 1-2 years though

70 overall rating on Fifa 13

Spoiler:

[Tomwin Lannister]

Damn I want a ponytail because I already have the Ibra facial hair. The problem is when my hair gets to the length where it's not quite long but pretty thick it's a complete mess. I don't have the willpower

@Abramovic Why does he not like Pablo? He'll probably get about an 80 because he's just coming into the spotlight now. Although i heard player ratings will be changed fairly often so maybe overrated players will not stay that way for long.

I think it's the case of him being pretty clueless rather than not liking him, he will be 80 minimum I would suspect due to that being his Fifa 12 rating afaik.

[Tomwin Lannister]

I thought it was 78 or 79 but i'll take your word for it. Do you have a Ps3 or an Xbox?

[Eivindo]

I get thick Frodo hair, so its hell saving up here too. Im gonna try my best, but I also wanna shave the whole thing sometimes

Yeah I know the feeling.

[Abramovich]

Xbox & your on PS3 I think? He is actually 79 & 81 in the inform FUT version, seems about right to me. Hopefully he will get higher, wouldn't mind using Roma in h2h seasons on the new game.

[Tomwin Lannister]

Yeah ps3. I want an active ps3 pro club but it's hard to do

I tried a while ago but couldn't get more than 2 people on at one time.

It would be nice to play in a club where people know enough about football and not wing pace abusers who don't/can't pass and consider turning round and passing back a crime against humanity
