  1. Well, I played Left Half (left midfield) in the fifties, in a definite 1-2-3-5. Amateur of course. I also played the same position and same configuration in hockey. In my experience it was prevalent at that time. But I am probably a lot older than you and played at a lower standard. And I realise you are referencing the sixties.
  2. It's the Doug Ellis Syndrome. Time (and the new owners) will heal us.
  3. Yes. It is pathetic, isn't it? But something we have got used to over the years. Our day will come.
  4. So there you have it. Now can we just relax and revel in having a top class keeper.
  5. Martinez plays for Aston Villa, that's why there is a furore about it. If the England keeper did it to get England through to the next round, never mind win the cup, there would not be a word against it. It is pretty minor compared to diving for a penalty or potentially breaking someone's leg. And it is really up to the penalty taker to rise above it. ( If you cannot take the heat, stay out of the kitchen.) Personally, I thought it was brilliant, like the shithousery against Man U. It's a game - nobody died.
  6. Spur of the moment, Got carried away. Not surprised -- he's crazy as f@ck.
  7. I think the manager needs to give him more minutes on the pitch. Persisting with Watkins is clearly not working. Play Archer or buy a CF and send Archer on loan.
  8. Ah. The good old high-scoring days.
  9. Do you even dare to tell him off?
  10. If he has a bad attitude, he has kept it well hidden.
  11. Another excellent youngster. Very confident.
  12. Just watched the highlights. That first goal is a thing of beauty. This kid looks excellent. And only 16. Gonna be a good one. And noted son of Stefan Moore playing? Can that be correct? Were the Moore brothers really that long ago?
  13. These are things on which he actually should be an expert.
  14. Or follow events on teletext or Dad's Sunday morning papers.
  15. Good lad. He is quite the hit over there.
  16. Is it just me, or does he look incredibly young?
  17. With Qatari money being suggested to flow into the purchase of more PL clubs, it is going to be much more difficult even to get into the CL, never mind win it.
  18. I agree. Smith never got the best out of them because of injury problems and a disrupted pre season. As for Gerrard, no player could thrive under him.
  19. No need. The nannies take them to school.
  20. An eye opener for the players. Some will fall by the wayside.
  21. Could he be ready for the first team squad, at least, for next season? If he was coached by Emery - wow.
