What ive liked about all the people who’ve worked with and under Emery so far is they aren’t front and centre. Even Purslow has rained it in somewhat. Was a bit of a hallmark of Smith and Gerrard era to see interviews with Terry, O’Kelly, Pitarch, Beale, Cutler fairly frequently. I didn’t care for that. Emery’s crew are very low key. All about the work. This guy looks impressive but without sounding like a buzz kill, want to get him and then get to work basically and not overly fawn at any one individual. It’s not how we roll under this manager.
-
Quality and a slice of luck ( which every player needs ) The field is so strong at the worlds. Brecel won 10-9 first round. Was getting hammered by Si for a long time in the semi. Great player to watch though and delighted he won.
-
The interviews were a bit cryptic there, especially what Brecel said at the end. Is Selby’s wife sick or something ?
-
Brecel on fire.
-
We aren’t on it so far
-
I like Brecel but he’ll get no freebies from Selby. He’ll make him earn every single pot.
-
Selby has bored himself to mental fatigue now hence the sloppy shots !
-
Si needs the mid session interval badly.
-
-
Agreed. Horrible bastard to play against Selby. 4x World champion though. Knows how to get it done.
-
Si hammering Brecel. Playing some great stuff.
-
So do i but a session littered with roll ups is not great snooker and I’d be well pissed off if i paid for the that session. 5 frames !!
-
I hope i detected sarcasm. This is desperate stuff. Played 13 frames over 2 sessions where 16 should be played. Roll ups and miscues is not good snooker.
-
9.30 and they’ve played 5 frames. Selby is torture.
-
Be good to see how Brecel handles the tag of been favourite. I think that game will be close. Si has put out Murphy, Milkins and McGill. Nothing to be sniffed at. He won’t be a bit worried about Brecel. I think Selby will win it out now. Out of the 4 left, he knows how to.
-
Isn’t Si the guy who beat Murphy at the uk open a few years ago and Murphy went on a rant that amateurs shouldn’t be let play at that ? Then Si went and dumped him out of this years worlds too
-
Only played 6 frames in the afternoon as Selby was full on torture mode.
-
Guys a freak ( the complimentary type ) Said preparation for United started after the full time whistle last night.
-
We’ve 2 days on them too with them playing Thursday. We should be flying outta the blocks and rearing to go.
-
Brighton have a lot of games in hand but they have to play them, we’ve the points on the board.
-
I don’t think with his momentum and the trajectory of where his career is at right now, he’ll want to get 10-15 mins at Villa next season, even if it’s every match. Watkins is Emery’s man at the minute. Archer would start easily for a handful of premier league clubs next season. We don’t necessarily have to have Boro going up to loan him there. Many clubs would take him.
-
I know you would. I don’t think Archer would though.
-
Professional pride should necessitate that these players would want to turn in a performance here given that the reverse fixture ( albeit under Gerrard ) was arguably our worst performance of the season. That married with Emery’s tactical nous, i think we’ll win. Be a tough game though.
-
The people saying Archer should be with us next year are the same people who’ll throw a hissy if we don’t sign a new striker.
-
The thing none of us know is how Emery rates him.
