Evenin’ all.
The game wot many of us watched turned upon the substitutions at half time. Here then are my thoughts wot I had whilst enduring this televisual feast.
Mind how you go.
Gomes 6 Looks decidedly less gormless sans gum shield. It’s all about perception.
Charlie 4 Those Lighter Life diet plan thingymajiggs actually work then. Triffic.
Dawson 5 I blame Bassong for his jitters.
Bassong 3 A jitter generator.
A&E 9 Top Charlie Banana Dalai Lama.
J**** 0 Looks the part, talks the part. Not so good with a football.
Peanut 0 Scientists have made a footballer out of balsa wood.
Krankie 6 Never seen a player look so sad.
Modders 6 Proof that real people cheer players. I’d ban season tickets.
Azza Blud 5 Lively in places, shameful dive for the peno.
Dances With Scones 4 Some textbook cheap fouls. Little else.
Bale 7 Quite simply broke them in two.
Pav 5 He needed to be triple jointed to get to his dismal ‘passes.’
3MP 5.5 Like Llorente. But with a goal and teeth transplanted from a horse.
Defoe 5 Hot to trot. No argument here.
And yes I left some out. It would be nuts pass comment on cameos that didn’t rock the Kasbah.
The rounding on Jenas is so boring. He’s a decent squad player and a good bloke if you’ve met him. He created the one chance in the first half that put Lennon through and was hardly worse than Huddlestone, Pienaar, Pav and the wayward Bassong who was obviously the worst player. Life is so black and white for some of you people….it’s frightening.
How would you like to be in Hudds shoes with J….. alongside not to mention Pieman. Did you not see those great passes and him trying to get the others moving? He is slow, but so was Alf Ramsey and look how many goals he created with his crosfield passes to Sonny Walters? Walker has a great right foot and speed but does he know what his left foot is for?
