Mornin’.
Well it could be worse. you could have woken up to discover you were Roy Hodgson.
Last night’s footy was quite mad across the board. Chelsea lost another wheel last night losing to Wolves. The French found Joe Hart in too finer form in a game that mirrored our own season opening tussle in many respects. The double sending off was spot on, but to be frank I would have shown Song a straight red just for looking like an Ipswich pimp.
Everton just looked more like a team that played football on the floor and it makes me cringe when we hit the ball over Modder’s head and turn possession into a 50/50 ball. Crouch out.
I acknowledge that the knockdown balls to VdV work, but at what ratio? One in 27 resulting in a goal? I don’t like it and I’d like us to stop doing it. It’s quite unseemly all this hoofing and hoping. What is this an open audition for an Old Time Dancing show or one of the world’s most stylish sides trying to play football?
Here’s a clip of a side winning.

Where’s my royalty? Prize? :finn:
Harry, I am loving
yourmy work :lol: :daumen:On it’s way. ETA before Easter.
Crouch works as plan B and would be fine to have coming off the bench. But he scores goals for England and in Europe so Harry feels obligated to play him. He’s the lazy coach’s fall back. Harry’s training staff should have worked harder to get Pav up to PL speed, and either done the same with Keano or moved him sooner. Too much time wasted spinning our wheels.
ah sick readin about it all to tell ya the truth,1 thing i will say is the last bad result we had evryone was on harry and 3mp`s back,think we have to b realistic,everton on a cold jan nite is isnt easy,especially after 3 wins on the trot,so everybody calm the fuck down,trust harry,he aint let let us down so far,or would u rather someone like hoddle back in charge?
audere est facere
If Crouch is the answer, what’s the question? And if he’d taken the opportunity to look along the line, (from his great avantage point, he’d be able to see The London Eye) he may have contributed to a point.
Attempting objectivity here. The frustrating thing about Crouch is that if he were about 7 inches shorter and stayed the same weight he would probably be a reasonable footballer.
His first touch is quite good but because he is so long his feet are always closer to the opposition. If it’s off his chest gravity ain’t fast enough to get the ball down and, his beanpole stature makes heading pretty much a non-event as he can’t get any uumph behind anything.
He’s always been a nearly man in my book.
Andy Carroll would be a decent long term replacement, as like it or not we do need a target man sometimes. He may look like a bin man and have the personality to match but we’ve missed a solid striker up front since the days of Falco. Shame the Geordies will ask silly money. Perhaps we could bung Pardew a few quid to fuck his bird or summink. Think her name is Kevin Nolan.
