hithere Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Not sure he'd have put it away playing against actual fit and proper footballers and not in that Disney league they've got going on over the pond. I just watched the two games today. The standard is appalling. A few decent enough players on show (Rivas, Shea, Higuita, Kaka obviously) but come on. Over there Bradley Wright-Phillips who rarely scored in League One is a 30 goal a season man... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 It's 100% Dave Kitson. The whole thing matches up with his career - all his anecdotes about things that happened during his career are on youtube. Think he & Adam Johnson may have been team mates briefly in the 09/10 season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over there Bradley Wright-Phillips who rarely scored in League One is a 30 goal a season man... You watched the first game of the season between two teams whose players have never played together. It wasn't going to be pretty, drawing a blanket statement because of it is a bit short-sighted. Regarding BWP, time will tell how much of his success last season was related to playing with Henry and Cahill. The standard of MLS is clearly inferior to that of the PL, no one disputes that. I scoff at the suggestion that the PL is comprised entirely of "fit and proper footballers", as if we aren't starting the likes of Gabby Obertan and Yoan Gouffran week-in and week-out. MLS is a fun league and the matches are entertaining more often than not. Which is more that can be said for the PL at this point, and for Newcastle in particular.

TaylorJ_01 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Some of them are fun - but I've seen too many matches of such intensely poor quality I was wondering if it could be classed as football. Overall I like it though, the enthusiasm and fun from fans/pundits makes it entertaining with the occasional flashes of quality/funny mistakes. You're right about the PL too - so many disgracefully poor matches. I'm sick of it. As I say, at least MLS is fun for the most part. PL we just have 0-0s followed by droning centre-backs talking badly about tactics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
