  1. Good to see him back on the pitch but with that brief cameo, I have to admit, I wasn't that impressed. Understandably he would be rusty, but still disappointed. Quite slow and unable to retain possession. Nonetheless, more game time will suffice.

     

      :facepalm:

  2. Radio reckoned Harper should of done better with the shot where Gyan scored

     

    Not really. It was a very good shot in the sense that it came from a wide angle into a crowded area and all he could do was drop to his right and make the block. Gyan just happened to be standing over him and the ball hit him directly. Gyan knew nothing about the ball, and it showed the way he celebrated.

  3.  

    So far so.....not bad!

     

    Coloccini has been huge. Harper, Ameobi, Enrique and Nolan have been decent. Barton is on another level though. Another midfield masterclass.

     

    Can't believe I'm saying this but losing Smith was a bit of a blow. He added bite to the midfield and didn't do much wrong. Not the game for Guthrie imo as he's the biggest bottler of them all. Should have sent Gosling on.

  4. Feel sorry for Avram, clearly been undermined by the board.  One of the good guys in football.

     

    Based on?

     

    absolutely f*** all. fact i doubt neesy will ever answer you :lol:

     

    He did, and he's right IMO. It's all subjective of course but he seems to have acted with a great deal of dignity and kept his head low despite seemingly being treated like s***.

     

    I know he did. Having dignity is admirable no doubt. But dignity is one thing. IMO he's completely out of his depth, and knows it, which is why you don't hear a peep out of him. I'm telling you, the bloke can't believe his luck so naturally he's better off keeping schtum and getting on with it. He doesn't really have much of a footballing philosophy based on the 2 outfits he's managed so far. One was a star-studded title winning side whom he looked after in the interim, and the other is rapidly plummeting into darkness

  5. He needs to throw another striker on and go 4-4-2.

     

    You're 2-0 against Arsenal, at home and you're probably managing your last game. Just f***ing go for it man Grant.

     

    He's been a sitting duck since he took over. Reckon he gives a s***? He's way in over his head, and probably can't believe his luck the jammy t***

  6. i stand by the theory that draws between teams from 5th down is best for us, as it means less points shared between them

     

    e.g. instead of fulham beating wigan at craven cottage and then losing at the dw and both teams having 3 points from it, id prefer 2 draws, both teams then only get 2 points. less points between teams around us makes us winning more profitable

     

    Agreed.

     

    I like you. Are you new?  :-*

  7. Promising striker for Iran is Karim Ansarifard. 20 years old, Good speed and acceleration, decent height and build and has shown good close control and a good finish to put Iran ahead 1-0

     

    Probably the most promising non EU based player i've seen at the Asian Cup.

     

    Agreed. He looked good as an all-action centre forward

  8.  

     

    Iran score a perfectly good goal which the ref disallows for a handball which never happened :lol: That's now China, Japan and N Korea that have benefited from horrendous ref decisions

  9. Jesus, that fake twitter gag is dreadful.

     

      :thup: shameful tbh

     

    What is this, the great depression?

    If you can share a cock you can share a joke TBH

     

      :hom:

  10. Why the press keep calling him israeli?  Grant is not exactly a foreign surname, he was maybe born in israel , but must have english family.

     

    :lol: have you heard him speak? sound local to you?
