  1. think they’d adjust. Those players would probably be screaming in agony in this era too if it meant they could buy a foul or win a pen.
  2. Passing in this game has been shocking. Everyone is going for the Hollywood ball.
  3. Maguire not even on the bench. Has he been excluded from the squad or something?
  4. saw an interesting video with Shearer where he said when he was training with Southampton, he would train both feet and his coaches told him to scrap that and solely focus on his stronger and right foot. Might be the same with lefties. Know Morton Gamst Pederson was transformed by his coaches from a right footed player to a left footed one because lefties are more in demand because of their scarcity. Baffles my mind as it is so hard to do.
  5. Typical overthinking from Sterling there.
  6. Previous two Palace seasons they had 43 and 44 points respectively. Vieira got them 48. Fantastic. I think he did an admirable job and I have a massive amount of respect for way he handled that Everton fan last game of the season. I just feel like he got a bit of leeway when things weren’t so rosy. Could be because he’s a Premier League legend or for other reasons. We’ll see in the next coming weeks as Palace have been underperforming. I don’t think anyone will be calling for his head though and rightly so. Palace to me are where they should be. i do think there’s a bit of an underlying bias of people wanting him to do well like when everyone wanted Obama to be president. To bring change and so on. he gets far more exposure than Eddie Howe. I remember countless talksport videos about how good of a job he was doing. Countless.
  7. And this is my question. Why has it been exaggerated?
  8. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2022/10/14/football/patrick-vieira-senegel-africa-diversity-spt-intl/index.html literally states in the article that “doors are closed because of the color of your skin” playing the race card.
  9. i wouldn’t say it if it wasn’t mentioned. And the fact that people are “wondering why” tells me everything I need to know. Everyone wants him to do well and break barriers.
  10. Keane publicly stating in public forum that he challenged Jon Walters to a fight just tells me all I need to know about the man. You know Walters probably just laughed him off as he didn’t want to beat up a weak old man.
  11. Not like that at all. You just hear peeps in the press about Vieira being black before other things are mentioned. Feel like he’s willed on a little more. Personally I don’t think his race should be mentioned at all but it is.
  12. hate to be that guy but Vieira will probably get more time on some affirmative action type thing. Not that he would even want it. Just how the world is going nowadays.
  13. He can’t function in an attacking role as a system player. If he really wanted to make a difference on this team, he’d have to play full back.
  14. That flick from Foden. My god. I cant wait to see what he becomes.
  15. My hopes… Wolves for being the most boring club in the Prem. The whole Portuguese thing is starting to grate on me now. Everything’s gotta be Portuguese. Leicester. The fairytale was nice but they can fuck off now. Bournemouth. Just making up the numbers. leicester fire sale would also be lovely. Cut throat prices for lots of quality.
  16. I’d offer Chris Wood to Brighton to give them SOMETHING up top.
  17. I’d like them to go for some edge. Bring Clint Dempsey in. Feel like he doesn’t give a shit. Robbie Mustoe stealing a living. They were obviously desperate when they made the switch to NBC. The man has been clinging on for dear life.
  18. Thanks! Still miss the old Fox Sports World days. Those Canadians treated the viewers with integrity. Robbie Earle ffs. Great commentator. Absolutely shit pundit. Stutters over every word. Obviously camera shy.
  19. kind of messes things up having a hot presenter for me. Guys like Jenas get the majority of the airtime as they’re the pretty boys with chemistry with the presenter. Backed up by Micah Richards saying he doesn’t like going on air with Jamie Redknapp because he’s too good looking.
  20. What is the point of NBCSN(Sports Network) if they’re going to show games on USA?
  21. Bellingham is unreal. Future is bright.
  22. Jeez, the relegation battle is tight.
  23. this game’s going to extra time and penalties, mate.
  24. Shit and defending or not, TAA still scares the shit out of me when he has the ball.
  25. I think he's alright. But may have been only one game where he never gave the ball away once. Thought he was 19-20 but he's 24!
