The College Dropout Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 He's in a weird position and I wonder what it's like for him. His own self-esteem. He's not a properly proven PL player but he's had some success. He's in a bad run of form and he gets selected every week. I wonder what his confidence is like right now. Does he know he's going to play crap again next weekend? Never been a huge fan but I feel a bit sorry for him. When he first came we had De Jong that could replace him but now he's a guaranteed starter and he's just fucking awful. Needs a break. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Perez created more chances than any other PL player this weekend (6). Our team can create as many chances as they want our shower of shit forwards couldn't hit a cows arse with a shovel full of sand Sounds quite difficult, to be fair. Would be quite heavy and difficult to aim without spilling. Something really wrong with you if you have a cows arse a matter of feet infront of you and you cant hit it with a shovel full of sand...no grains at all hit cows said behind Probably fair to say that, actually, there's something wrong with you if you have a cow's arse a matter of feet in front of you at all.

AsprillasShinPad Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Was epically shit today, as always. All he seems to do is pathetically throw himself on the floor then stop playing to shout at the referee whilst the opposition run away with the ball unopposed. If he actually stayed on his feet and tried to play the game he might add some value. Play the whistle you thundercunt! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordiedean Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 utter imposter of a footballer championship standard at best. Offers absolutely fuck all 99% of the time and is as weak as a kitten. This guy has been with us for 5 years now and it highlights how absolute shite we are if he is a regular starter. 2nd relegation for this prick is incoming If/when we go down he needs to be one of the first shown the door Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 We know he's not good enough, he's in the side because we won't pay the going rate for a top striker, and haven't done since Cisse. Even he wasn't really a top striker, but compared to what we are spending these days, he was world class. It's pointless ranting about these guys tbh, Perez runs his socks off, just obviously limited in a few departments. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Bailey Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 Lads not progressed as his very early promise had suggested. Playing in a poor side and for a club engaged in civil war certainly isn't helping him. Far from our worst though imo, and yes far from our best (though our best would be counted as 'adequate' for most other sides imo). grim fucking times.

Running your socks off is not a pre requisite for a premier league footballer Running your socks off is a prerequisite for a professional footballer full stop. Very, very few footballers are good enough for the game to revolve around them, and even then these days, even the very best players still put the miles in. The days of your Jan Molbys are gone, and anyway, Perez is a fucking wank footballer and isn't anywhere good enough to be considered as a luxury player.

Guest firetotheworks Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 The very best players know when to conserve energy for when running won't be wasted rather than just running about tbh. At least in his position anyway. Like Rio Ferdinand puts it, if one of the first things you hear about a player is that they work hard and put themselves about, your automatic assumption is that they've got nothing about them. I don't see effort as being a problem with Perez anyway like, it's more him overplaying it, running into trouble, or misplacing passes imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see effort as being a problem with Perez anyway like, it's more him overplaying it, running into trouble, or misplacing passes imo. The real problem with Perez is that he's got absolutely nothing to offer on the pitch. No pace or athleticism. Zero strength. No footballing brain or vision. He doesn't move into dangerous spaces and the game just passes him by. All he does is get the ball in really un-threatening positions then tries to draw a foul and throws himself on the floor, usually embarrassingly and unsuccessfully. We'd be better off getting any other player and telling them to just get in the box and try and get a few goals (© Kevin Nolan). He is a truly awful, awful player.

Guest firetotheworks Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 He scored 8 goals in the Premier League last season and 10 in total. No matter what you think of him (and he frustrates the life out of me) he clearly has his worth as a player, let alone over the anyone that you think would do better.

No matter what you think of him (and he frustrates the life out of me) he clearly has his worth as a player, let alone over the anyone that you think would do better. 8 goals in 32 (plus 8 sub) appearances is pretty underwhelming for a main striker. He also has 0 goals in 8 appearances so far this season which is abysmal. My point is that his poor goal scoring record is his biggest positive. He adds fuck all in every other department. I'd rather get one of the under 23s in the team and tell them to goal hang - Perez is that much of a waste of a pick at the minute. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree like, it's very easy to see how much worse we are whenever he doesn't play, and I say that as someone who doesn't particularly like him. If we had anyone even potentially better in that position I'd be crying out for him to be replaced, but we don't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
