Back after the international break, according to RDZ in the pre-Forest press conference. Ditto with Milner.

Pretty sure PL, UEFA and FIFA won't be too happy with a small break away dictating to them how to run football, especially when many of those doing it are run by states.

What Dazzer and Hampshire say. We'll still continue with the model but I suspect it'll be scaled down, as will transfer fees (until something else comes along). And we've got huge reserves in the bank following on from about five or six windows in which we've made profits -- often substantial...

I've said this a few times, but if you could choose a moment for the musical chairs to stop, you'd pretty much choose the squad we have now.

Thank you for posting this. Ashworth IN. Isak and JP both doing wonders for the respective clubs' PSR.

Good point about receiving the ball, and first touch. From memory (which is all we have at the mo :cry:) Julio is really good at that.

Worth adding that, last night, there was a last-millisecond quite exaggerated opening up of the foot to send it to the right. Another possibility is that he can look at two places -- the ball and the keeper -- simultaneously, but I'd need some robust evidence that humans can do that kind of thing.

I'm not sure I did say that. I can't fathom it all out. The best I can offer is that maybe he's telepathic and, when staring at the keeper, he convinces him that he's going the other way than he does.

We were dire in the first half. And he was the worst of the lot -- so many fancy flicks none of which paid off. We needed the ball to stick with our forwards to relieve some pressure, and JP just didn't help. Then he picks up the ball in the second half, drives, gets in front of their daft...

Might as well :bounce: my own post

I can't quite work out how he contrives to send the keeper the wrong way every time, and have watched him quite closely. When he starts his run-up, he's got his head up staring at the keeper while taking all those steps without really moving. Then when he does move towards the ball, he puts his...

Second in the PL

His running, on and off the ball is tremendous.

I'm the same.

Interesting. Thanks for sharing. Are you, and/or close colleagues, at risk?

I looked at him closely, and he stares at the keeper but for the last few strides then looks down at the ball so I can't really work out how he knows which way the keeper is going

I think the current average for a penalty is 0.78 so, if he misses his next one for us, he'll be pretty much in line with it.

Names need to be named.

Will have to differ with you on another forward. If Evan hadn't got his hat-trick, I'd have given MotM to Joao Pedro. He was integral to our game plan, found pockets of space, picked the ball up and drove forward, and caused havoc. Sure, everything didn't pay off especially the final ball, but...

Depends who's on the pitch. If Milner is, I'd want him to take it, but Joao Pedro and Ferg are good too.
