look, he was never physically cut out for the pl. didn't have the strength or the speed to be a pl winger. would've liked to have seen him as a no. 10, but for some reason it never happened. but there is no questioning that he had very high level technique. think he'd do really well in somewhere...
well that's the thing at the end of the day, isn't it? as unacceptable as today was, beat villa (or at least play well) and this debacle is all forgotten
that's actually not the area of recruitment I'm p***ed off with today. we were told we didn't need to replace burn because we had all these young players to come through. we haven't seen them yet. if they're not ready to be thrown in, okay, fine, but then surely you bring someone else in, no...
started a thread that definitely had the colour of dissatisfaction. stone cold sober, however cutting down on the cigs has gone out the window after that
this question has been asked a few times but in my mind there's no doubt. utterly embarrassing.
thankfully the 3 points against watford mean it's basically the same as drawing our last three games, which is adequate, apart from the -1 goal difference.
urgent bounce back required, and I know...
it actually isn't his first red, but that's an interesting point because his last red was in our game against sheffield united at home last season. again a similar scenario, gave a yellow because he's a p*** weak ref and then waited for var to bail him out
it comes from the top though. refs don't do this as they feel they have no guidance or support from the disastrous leadership at the pgmol. take this video, for example, anthony taylor, one of our best refs, would probably never do this in the prem, and yet takes a no nonsense approach when...
charged with failing to control their players for their antics after the Dunk yellow that was turned to a red.
absolutely despise the way big teams, especially united, surround the ref to put him under pressure to make the call they want, especially when you have a p** weak referee like we did...
you can do whatever you like, I'm really not arsed. it's not a sign of imminent disaster but it's definitely something I'd like to see us try and improve upon, I'm aware that mistakes like that come with the territory of playing the way we do but if we could reduce those cheap giveaways by a...
yep. realised as I've gotten older that they're not just a standard ****erish top six team, but actually a completely different level of insufferable. only other club who come even vaguely close to palace for me
yes the fight against the adversity of being a goal and a man down was great to see, as always, but to be honest the complacency at the start of that second half really wasn't a great look. United didn't have to do anything special tonight, and that should be concerning, as good as everything...
obviously it's going to seem like this until we score, but this really does feel like it's going to be a classic 'brighton didn't get what they deserved' match
