Spanish Dave - in the (goalscoring) form of his life!

[Brighton Mod]

Seeing Dave creep up the goal scoring table for Albion, caused me to check out his previous form in front of goal. The stats show that he's enjoying himself in England:

Bilbao - 12 goals in 118 apps
Osasuna - 11 goals in 78 apps
Albion - 9 goals in 29 apps

There have been so many highlights this amazing season, but for me the best thing so far has been the evolution of Dave from Spain. Since he blossomed during the Millwall game he's been so, so good. So good in fact that I've felt the need to start a thread for the first time ever on NSC (it's only taken about 12 years).

Sign him up Gus please!!!!

Cream rises to the top, a quality, quality player our best signing of the season and remember, he hasn't played a full season. Lead us to the Prem Dave!!!

Bienvenidos!

Greetings from sunny Pamplona!!

Talking about spaniards, here is another one, I am a lifelong Real Sociedad supporter but I have Brighton & Hove Albion as my English team, why would you wonder?
Well, to start with, we share same colours, a lovely stadium (ours is a bit older than yours) San sebastian is a lovely seaside town in the north of Spain as Brighton is and also I have been working at the stadium the last few months ha ha Thanks Albion.
I really hope you go up, nice team, very good football and support.

Go seagulls !!!!!

Has fulfilled the role we'd hoped Vicente would, if we're honest.

 

[GingerBeerMan]

Especially for you...

How about put the picture of Dave on a BHA flag, then the "spanish dave" can be filled in with the Spanish flag

 

[Napper]

Another player that wont be fazed (sp) by the Play offs and should step up

 

[GingerBeerMan]

I wouldn't think all of those leagues are better than the championship. Especially Ukraine and Belgium.

There is a huge gulf in quality between the first 8, and the last two are better as well but not by as much.

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

Spanish Dave. What DOES he do exactly?

 

[Bakero]

I wouldn't think all of those leagues are better than the championship. Especially Ukraine and Belgium.

Shaktar Donetsk would smash any Championship side, Metalist Kharkiv and Dynamo Kiev probably would too. Top Belgian sides (Anderlecht, Genk, Standard Liege etc) would also fare well. There's not much debate to be had about the others, is there?

welcome.

I stayed in San Sebastian during the World Cup in 1982, lovely place. I bought a Real Sociedad shirt, purely because of the colours and still watch out for their results.

Do you consider yourself Spanish first and Basque second, Or like Calderon Basque first and Spanish second?

A goal every three games from midfield. an excellent return.

Free kick Winner to get us to Wembley?

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Has fulfilled the role we'd hoped Vicente would, if we're honest.

I think that's right. He has stopped Vicente receiving a season long kicking from the doubters.

Vicente was the catalyst. David may never have come without Calderon, V and Bruno

That's very true.

I wonder how the Spaniards would feel is Gus did leave in the summer if we didn't go up?

 

[Stat Brother]

That's very true.

They'll stick around with Benitez.

At least Fat Raf is out of work.

Tell me under what circumstances Laudrup leaves Swansea this Summer to drop down to a Championship side?

Anyway I meant Mourinho.
