Premier League statues - quite the mixed bag?! 12:07 - Apr 27 with 883 views

As discussed by Phil and Jim on this week’s Video Verdict (below), the St James’ Park bronze of Sir Bobby is not the finest! Ronaldo statuesque.

Our own Sir Bobby statue to us being far superior. With perhaps the Beattie and Sir Alf figures better still.

There have been many other bad renditions seen on the road this season - including Shearer yesterday. Jury out on the shiny shiny metal ones at the Etihad. Some ‘mid’ renditions at the Emirates including Tony Adams. The trinity statue at Old Trafford perhaps the best scene?

Wikipedia have a list:

What’s the best/worst you’ve seen?

What do you think has been the best Premier League away ground?

Bit ridiculous that there's only one of Sir Alf. Surely he's deserving of one at Wembley?

Definitely prefer the less shiny statues

Nice of them to put one up of our former manager Jackie Milburn ;-)

Possibly unpopular opinion here, so feel free to shoot me down, but I really don't like it when clubs like Arsenal and Man City put up statues of players who only retired about five minutes ago and are now in their forties. Just seems naff to me. Not to say the likes of Thierry Henry and Vincent Kompany are not statue worthy, of course they are, but just seems way too soon.

Wor Jackie certainly had an amazing send off.
