    Put Alli in that second striker position for England and he'll try to dribble to goal every time he gets the ball. Don't think it's too much to ask for him to 'do a job' for England.

    Just gonna leave this here. Not trying to start anything but a +1 on the Alli deep midfield role. Also mentioned Roy Keane in the exact same sense I did.
  3. This is spot on ? It’s a shame it ended like it did, he was a good player. Aye one of the players I wish had stayed. Think it was against Arsenal when Nobby scored he really gained my respect. He covered every blade and was in the wars all day. Throwing himself into every tackle and taking some pretty severe hits. Had a goal in him, too. Always wanted him and Barton in our central midfield but that never happened.
  4. Re: the Sterling abuse - what did the fans say? Didn't get a good look.
  5. The third one? Think it was macho cause he rode the challenge. He didn't celebrate any of them. His expression didn't change, it was weird. Checked out the first ones as apparently Liverpool fans are also worried by it. Think he scores then nods as if to say "I'm the man" then realizes the opportunity was more fasioned by Firmino's involement and turns to thank him. The look on his face tells me he was trying to prove a point on the day. Maybe as he hadn't scored for a few games.

  7. Kit selections have been shocking this season.
  8. Shit I was supposed to rsvp to that.
  9. Borini's numbers are absolutely staggering for a forward player. Feghouli's good though. Know he struggled at Wham but they go through number 10s like water.
  10. I also think he waited too long to get in. Lamapard, Gerrard, Carrick, whoever's been mentioned got in a year or two after retirement. Their stock was high.
  11. I feel for Sol. Been watching some interviews with him and the conversation will be going really well and then the interviewer will bring up the race thing. It's Sol's fault for bringing it up in the first place, but I hope it's not something that sticks with him throughout his career. You look at Sol and the guy has tremendous presense. He could be a top manager. Everything he said in his presser was correct. He was one of my favorite players growing up. He knew he couldn't handle the pressures of Arsenal so he left and went to Portsmouth and still won a trophy. Wish Vincent Kompany would take note.
  12. Me too. I thought Steven Naismith was decent aswell.
  13. Didn't do a thing in the CL after the first leg of the quarter final, didn't do a thing in the World Cup bar that hat trick which De Gea was shite for and one of them was a pen 15 goals in 13 CL games. Played four World Cup games and scored four goals. I don't know what else he can do tbh.
