The College Dropout Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Shearer and Wright have become really good pundits imo. Especially Wrighty. The younger ones tend to be the worst. Well... Murphy is the worst. Like a shitter Lawro. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowt stopping him from going for it if he's not going to kick the keepers face in. It's a fucking karate kick, whether there was anyone around him or not, he should be taking that with his head, the fact that he goes with his foot instead suggests he wants to get there before someone, you don't have to be looking in the direction of someone to feel their presence.

It does need to be made much clearer to all concerned that players have a responsibility for each other's safety, and that having the honest intention of getting to the ball first isn't always an excuse. We still seem to be in a transition phase in absorbing this. I've got a bit of sympathy for Mane, but he did take a running jump into the challenge.

Heron Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 He realistically couldn't go with his head due to the way people run and there was no malice in what he did. It was dangerous play like but I'd expect to see my striker going for that challenge. Shearer pretty much got it spot on. I do wonder how many people have played football at times...

I wouldn't disagree with most of that. That was the only way he could get the ball, and if he'd pulled out of making any sort of challenge, he'd have been accused of bottling out of a goalscoring opportunity. So there was pressure on him to go for it. But at the end of the day, he did jump and connect with the opponent's head. Everyone needs to get the message that that is unacceptable.

Ashley17 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Sky always have their hands tied at this time of year. They can't put any Champions League club in the Sunday or Monday slot as they pick the TV games before the Champions League draw, so it's quota fillers all round Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Grabbed some tickets last minute for Ajax v Zwolle whilst in Amsterdam. What kind of amateur set up? Because last minute, had to show our e-tickets at some shoddy kiosk to swap for paper tickets. Ended up 20 minutes late for kick off. Ticket then didn't work on the scanner. Was told to wait two minutes and try again. The solution was actually to just turn the ticket round ffs. Great atmosphere once in there, though. My word do the Dutch hate a backpass! Also got to watch a Kluivert and give Siem a welcome home clap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 It's staggering by how much they've fucked it all up, like. There'll never be a better advert for scrapping the idea altogether, when it should work absolutely fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
