He used the word "joke" on MOTD2 when unveiling his TOTW.

No Veltman (LOLz) and FIVE Liverpool players! I counted two monsters, but there could be more. (I'm using this thread in an attempt to banish the name of GC to NSC history!)

I suspect he had a few beers watching the football on Sunday and then just phoned it in. Got to admire the no fucks given attitude of barely more than a sentence per player too.No Veltman (LOLz) and FIVE Liverpool players! I counted two monsters, but there could be more.

The comments are damning, but not unfair. This is appalling journalism. Why must an ex-player be the one to choose the TOTW? Why not choose a football journalist who has a history of engaging writing? Shambles.No Veltman (LOLz) and FIVE Liverpool players! I counted two monsters, but there could be more.

To be fair, our game wasn't really that great and Liverpool were very impressive
I think... and I can't believe I'm writing this... I think I miss Garth Crooks.

I think I might have said 'be careful what you wish for' when TD was announced. If not, I deffo thought it. #FreeGarthCrooksI think... and I can't believe I'm writing this... I think I miss Garth Crooks.
After the first week, I was all for seeing some brevity after Garth Crooks waffling on about irrelevant stuff for 2 out of 3 paragraphs for each player. Since then ... he's taken it too far. Absolutely no actual analysis of why he's picking players. Just some totally meaningless words once they're used a few times too many (ie "monster").

His reasoning for picking Alison is that he was the only keeper to keep a clean sheet. Then he mentions how Liverpool were all over United. Surely it’s a lot easier to keep a clean sheet when your team is so dominant.
I’ve not seen every game highlights yet but Bart and Raya both made important saves in our game. Wouldn’t you pick a keeper who has made some saves and contributed to his teams results rather than someone who has had an easy afternoon cause the team he’s played against are shite.

Maybe Crooks was paid by the word? That would explain his waffling.
Troy 1 (sigh): He's wonderful on the ball, looks so calm and composed. I think he'll be the one they end up selling next year to someone like Liverpool. He's naturally left-footed and never looks flustered. A clean sheet for a Brighton team who keep on rolling.
Troy 2 (sigh): I was at this game and very rarely do you go to a Premier League match and someone looks a level above both teams. He was running over £50m Kalvin Phillips like he wasn't there. If he can keep that up, he will not be at Brighton much longer.
Guess who? (Not that hard, I know)
"Monster" count this week: Two

If he keeps this up he will have our whole squad up for grabs before long. What a waste of space.
Commenter: "I don’t miss Garth Crooks, let me make that clear, but Deeney has about a 12 word vocabulary. It’s just embarrassing"
Since when has JPVH been left-footed? Someone had better tell Transfermarkt!
Apart from that his comments seem quite reasonable, though I can see that his praise of Sanchez might invoke derision and disapproval on here!

Can 'Troy 1' play left back? According to Deeney, yes he can!
As much as I love our boys, it highlights what a shit weekend it was if three players from a 0-0 draw are in his team of the week. That, or the fact that he was at the game, so it made his job a bit easier
Other than the fact that anyone decent for us will be sold. We're four games in, FFS.

' He's probably going to get 110 goals and 47 hat-tricks this season! '
