  1. What the fuck does he see in Gouffran man? Absolute waste of space.
  2. Messi has been absolutely awful.
  3. Taking off Di Maria for some reason.
  4. glorious The man in the plastic mask on to save the day though.
  5. Barca just getting absolutely walloped in the arse.
  6. Agreed. Anyone else does that while on a yellow card and everyone would be calling them stupid for it. He'd been booked and swung his leg hopefully towards a ball that the keeper was clearly going to claim despite the fact that a defender was shielding the ball from him. I don't think he was trying to hurt the keeper but does that matter? It was incredibly thick of him.
  7. The ball was utterly unwinnable. Had it been a 50/50 ball it would have been rash but understandable for him to go in and catch the keeper and risk a yellow. This though was just fucking dimwitted, no good was ever coming from that challenge and we were very lucky that he got away with it. Not arsed about him anymore tbh. Still reckon there's a good player in there and when he's playing well he's a fun player to cheer for because he's a bit mental. However, he's an awful fit in Rafa's system and seems to be a bit thick. He's also prone to the whole feigning injury shite which is embarrassing for a guy with his size and playing style. Cons probably outweigh the pros for me at this point, sadly.
  8. Not averse to Anita getting a new deal but please no to Gouffran.
  9. No bollocking from me, I just feel sorry for you.
  10. Ideal scenario for me is that Mitro doesn't play but scores a goal and we win 0-0.
  11. The absolute high point of Goodman's commentary yesterday was saying before kick-off that Gouffran had "all the ability in the world". You knew there and then that the guy had basically nothing of note to contribute. Anyway, thought Atsu looked sharp when he came on and with him impressing at the ACON then I really hope that he can push Gouffran out of the first choice spot at LW. Gouffran however is notably less dismal as the lone striker than he is out wide. He's not particularly quick or anything but he's vastly more mobile than Mitro or Murphy and with how slow our team is in general we need a front man who can move. He should be Gayle's backup until the end of the year IMO.
  12. Deadly hope. Hope Wolves score then have a stonewall penalty turned down in the second half.
  13. Cracking assist. Lucky to not be given offside maybe? Commentator will be furious when someone who isn't completely thick tells him about it.
  14. Cracking effort that from Colback, would have comfortably made it to the net had the keeper not got there.
  15. Quality pronunciation of the word plethora there by the commentator. Good man Colback, let him know you're there early!!

    Paul Dummett

    His lack of ability going forward wouldn't be such an issue in many teams but given Rafa's system I think we need a LB who can actually do something with the ball. Rafa loves his inverted wingers meaning any real width in our attack has to come from the full-backs. If we were to sign a left footed, pacy winger and actually play him on the left then I'd have no real issue with Dummett staying in the team. That seems unlikely though.
  17. I didn't actually think the miss was THAT bad tbh. He certainly should score but he's turning, taking it first time on the half volley so it's not straightforward. He's had several worse this season... which isn't exactly a glowing defense of him I know. Needs to go in the summer though, the only role he'll ever really be able to fulfil in Rafa's squad is to be the target man we throw on late when we're chasing a game and need to go two up top. Sell him for whatever we can get and bring in another mobile striker to battle with Gayle for the spot. Murphy will probably suffice for another year as the battering ram option. Of course if Rafa goes then who the fuck knows.
