  1. That brought up a memory of being in a training camp at IK Start as a 10 year old having just overcome the fear of throwing myself to the ground as a keeper, super confident, and Terje Leonardsen proceeding to ping the ball in the top corner, back to goal with his heel. Played as a right back until early retirement at 16.
  2. Sheffield United doing everything but scoring against the mackems.

    Alan Shearer

    Nothing to misinterpret there. I remember at the time it was painfully obvious that Bellamy & Kluivert should be our starting strikers but Shearer got too many starts on account of being Shearer. In retrospect it was probably worth it for the record considering how things turned out later anyway but at the time it was to the detriment of our team and results.

    Alan Shearer

    Liverpool were close to signing Shearer for £5m summer 2004 I think it was, when SBR signed Kluivert as he saw it was time to move on if we wanted to improve...........5 years after Gullit benched him against Sunderland Hardly a good argument from Gullit.
  5. Haven't aramco & qatar airways been sponsors for years now?
  6. All rumours around Sofyan Amrabat seems to have stopped after January. Does anyone that pay any attention to Serie A know how he has performed for Fiorentina after the WC? Seemed like a perfect fit for our formation as an anchor with Willock/Joelinton & Bruno either side of him.
  7. As it should be, considering you have to be away from home for so long and working long hours.
  8. Howe said post match he was impressed Wilson even made it onto the field due to issues during the week. Isak (hopefully) cemented the striker position as his to lose yesterday, but having a fit Wilson to put on against tired legs last 20-30 minutes of games is a real weapon.

    Nick Pope

    I think it's a testament to his mentality that he continues to try even though he's messed up a few times the last two games. Much rather that he tries to overcome the issue rather than stopping and playing safer. We need a sweeper keeper in this system, not someone sat stationary on the line solely to stop shots.
  10. Well played. Incredibly important win!
  11. Who were running out of steam. Melt.
  12. Collins suspect to screw up anything at any time. Good sub for us.
  13. Yeah by putting on two regular starters?
  14. Sucks, but Trippier slipped ffs. Let's not start the blame game, eh?
  15. Must be horrible to play against ASM when he plays like this
  16. Already sweating profusely from his forearm. He'll last another 10 minutes and then fade out from the game.
  17. Not watching the game, but would 100% support a decision to force him to play with a ball gag.
  18. There were people on here who knew. It's definitely the type of transfers we need to be doing. Give me a relatively unknown Kvaratskhelia with bags of potential over your Lingards and Maddisons every day of the week.
  19. Hopefully we can shock them with an early goal so they won't be sitting deep all game hoping to hit us on the counter.
  20. Love watching Gnoto play. Fantasticly clever, tricky little player.
