Its just the nature of his position. The hardest thing to do is to score and create goals, to unlock defences. If he could do that week-in week-out at this level then he'd have been well above our pay grade. Arsenal took a punt on him after they were gazumped at the last minute for Mudryk, and...
We can all single out some anonymous displays from him (and all our players for that matter). But over the last 3.5 years or so he's without a doubt been one of our best and most productive players. I've not looked up a goals reel, but I'd wager his is pretty special.
That one v Brentford on...
I miss him. We don't have another player like him, on his day he was sublime.
Mitoma has certainly softened the blow, but I'd have loved to have had Trossard's versatility as an option still. He such an intelligent player, a craftsman and a real asset to any team. He's slotted right in at...
I keep seeing this half-baked idea. You KNOW what will happen. Managers will use up their appeals on every sodding goal thats scored against them, especially if its a late one.
"GOOOOAAAALLLL - oh no hang on. Potter is appealing. Yes...yes...it certainly looks like Lewis Dunk definitely gave...
My missus HATED Everything Everywhere and All At Once. I stuck with it, but I must admit its epic weirdness tested my patience a bit at times. And I think at 2:19m it was probably about half an hour too long, there was plenty of rather tedious flotsum that could've been cut to make it a bit...
He's single-handedly carried that rancid flea-bitten club on his back for so many years now. Without him, they'd have been having their regular little Millwall and Charlton derbies long before their comical "new stand" design was ever committed to the back of a fag packet by that weird...
This bloke was a proper coffin-dodger though, so probably a technophobe who wouldn't have the first idea how to whistle up some online highlights "with no f*cking Lineker". Plus it'd give him one less thing to MOAN about to everyone.
Yep. I gather it fulfilled some kind of contractual obligation to the EPL, but the production staff clearly wanted to put out the absolute bare minimum they could get away with. And despite a few contrary oddballs claiming it was somehow "better", it was a total shitshow and an embarrassment for...
I watced it on Saturday more out of a slightly morbid interest than anything else, just to see what they'd do with it. It was just as bad if not worse than I'd expected.
There was a cantankerous old spanner in my local yesterday, loudly proclaiming to his captive audience, again and again, how...
Agreed. Great all-round player but he can be very frustrating in front of goal. That header he put wide at Selhurst still has me suppressing acts of domestic violence.
That completely silent 20 minutes "show" they put out on Saturday night in place of MOTD was absolutely shit. If that was the norm every week then I definitely wouldn't bother with it. I look forward to that 90-odd minutes of highlights and - yes - the analysis (as long as its not Micah...
Mitoma and the Perv are without doubt the best winger/fullback combination we've had since Knocky and Snakey Bruno. They are absolutely sensational down that left flank, a real handful for any team to deal with.
I wouldn't get overly het up about it tbh. A lot of football chanting involves arrogance and talking the piss out of the opposition, its part of the tribalism as already mentioned on here.
I've been guilty of joining in with the chant that proclaims that "Brighton & Hove Albion FC are by FAR...
I dunno if this in the fifty, but I've always loved this one for the pure sportsmanship. Magnificnent.
“I was taught as a kid always respect the opposition first and celebrate after, which I did. I went over to Brett Lee and shook his hand and there’s that picture, where I whisper in his ear...
My favourite 2L carton of orange juice in Tesco has (overnight) gone from £1.35 to £1.65.
And they're also asking me to pay the thick end of a fiver for a poxy box of plain Shredded Wheat. Cereals in general have gone through the roof. Fortunately I'm not on the breadline, but I'm increasingly...
It was shit. Yet another Tory induced f***-up inflicted on the muggles. Its quite symbolic in its own way.
Everything this rancid corrupt government touches turns to absolute CACK.
Its not a rights issue as such.
Its the BBC performing its absolute bare minimum obligation under its existing contract with the Premier League to show the goals / highlights. So thats all they've done.
Had they simply not bothered with anything tonight, then they'd have been in breach. If...
