7-2 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 On 3/20/2017 at 09:42, accies1874 said: Murphy was banging on about how poor Aguero had been this season. Shearer simply said "How many goals has he got? 25." That shut him up completely . I don't actually agree with that. It's a response by a goal scorer to cover up any short comings. 'All he does is score goals' is a criticism of a player, not a compliment eg Kris Boyd. Just scoring goals is no longer enough so it's entirely feasible that Aguero could be contributing little outside of the box but still knocking them in being the great goal scorer he is. He's also missed quite a few he'd normally score so that can also be classed as a bad season by his high standards. He may have scored 25 but he should have had a load more!

Tartan Dave Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Commentary on this first game got me a seething mess... the "costa gets a bad press but showed good sportsmanship" cause he said a boy was injured. Plus other wee bits like the over-selling of any kind of a title race Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Ross Barkley can be a horrible wee b*****d at times, shocking tackle on Lovren. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8MileBU Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 F**k knows how Barkley wasn't sent off today. Maybe a slight consolation was that he was utterly pish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 I'm beginning to think that David Moyes is deciding the content of his post-match interviews purely based on what will give The Football Ramble the most material to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvo Montalbano Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Not suite as bad as the commentary that seemed to want Harry Winks to have a bad injury. Said something like "I hope that's worse than it looks" when he meant the opposite. Also looked up the Zaha goal on YouTube that Jonathan Pearce said was one of the great international goals from midweek. It was basically a decent enough strike from the edge of the box following some ropey Russian defending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmothecat Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Spurs first goal was fantastic. Under pressure at the back, get it out, and a really really good finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmothecat Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 In two minds over Coutinho's goal. On the one hand it was a very very good goal, and as a neutral enjoyable to watch, but he went for a very tricky shot that required a lot of skill that 9 times out of 10 would miss. Taking that sort of risk when you are almost a yard ahead of the nearest defender and the Keeper isn't anywhere near you seems needless. He could have taken a touch and had a far far easier shot.Obviously it doesn't matter as he scored it, but had he missed that going for the spectacular if I were a fan I would be raging.

accies1874 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Good to see Lampard on. Mainly because it decreases the odds of Ian Wright appearing in future shows. Would like to see him become a regular. He's usually the best stand-in for Gary Neville on MNF, and MotD really doesn't have any decent pundits. I like Shearer but that's about it.

David W Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Surely Everton's first bit of transfer business this summer (apart from replacing Lukaku and Barkley and Jagielka and Barry) will be a new 'keeper? Robles is dreadful; what was he doing to give away that penalty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7-2 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 I had the misfortune to catch part of Pearce pontificating on the Spurs game and he deliberately referred to an incident ending with 'a corner ball' to Spurs rather than a goal kick to Bournemouth. I genuinely can't decide whether Pearce or Chic Young is the most despicable, hateful, low life cretin I'm forced to subsidise with my tv tax.

Fortunately there was nothing heavy at hand or I might have lobbed it at the TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
