Don't think he was ever going to be a PL player tbh. Couldn't cope with the pace or physicality of the game. Some nice flashes but even in those games where he made things happen he went missing far too much. And then there's the injuries on top of that.

This could snowball out of control.

I think that's fair enough so long as there's some indication the team's moving in the right direction. He needs that to take a bit of pressure off himself. I think he'll be given time though, barring utter disaster. When you think how much time Pardew got I hope he's afforded that at the very least.

I see the algorithm's kicked back in.

Or The Spectator is putting a rather extreme spin on it all.

Thousands of metres

I suppose a loan deal represents a possible way back and a chance to rebuild his confidence and form. I agree with you though. Definitely wasn't given a proper opportunity here and also had to try and adapt to the English game whilst playing for a shite side.

Btw, reading and acquiring knowledge is for your 20s and 30s whereas Florita's is for your 50s. #sussed

Auto-correct has never heard of the place apparently

Vineyard is canny. Florists is for cunts.

Love it when they tell a player to have a shot then ban mental when the player does but doesn't score a 25 yard screamer. Used to have some right 'winnets' behind me who only perceived the game in the past 20 seconds or so, i.e. couldn't fathom why a player might be blowing out his arse after sprinting up and down the pitch less the a minute ago. Also thought player x,y or z should be able to run forever and execute a perfect pass every time purely because of their salary. Didn't seem to be able to see what a player was trying to do either when something didn't come off. I don't think they're atypical match goers.

Tidied

I think you need to read the article

I'm glad you did tbh I reckon I've been to 300-400 games but been to about 5 in the last four seasons. Not that I post much about football anyway now. I rarely watch it these days.

Those posh gypsies you always here about

It's called a 'show' in Sunderland apparently

He did, aye. Always knew I was related to him but only found out relatively recently Alan was his son

Might've known this would go soopafan sooner or later. Glad I wasn't disappointed

4/5

Bet they got pissed after you left

Saw Voderman in real life once (at the London Eye) and I can confirm she has a nice big arse.
