On? The? Money?
Seeing as you're self congratulating for getting one right, you'll need to take the hit on this one!
ps I'm fully aware it was tongue-in-cheek. For clarity, so is this
Just on Miller - I remember somebody bumping their gums on here (don't remember who) about his workrate off the ball, and how he doesn't do enough. BBC Sport have an article today highlighting the stat that he's recovered the ball 72 times in 11 games. More than anyone else in the league. As well as being 11th in the league for interceptions.
He's either improved his defensive game in the last few weeks, or whoever it was has not been watching the same games as the rest of us
No matter the height of the striker, a ball that he is expected to hold up needs to come in to him below head height in order for him to be able to make it stick. If you're playing it above head height the defender will almost always have the advantage.
Firing aerial balls head height and above is an almost impossible task to control and/or hold up. That only works when there is someone to flick the ball on to.
We possibly should have recruited players who can play passes lower than 7 feet in the air.
The one that sticks out from your list was Porter - the chat, before he had kicked a ball, was that he had one leg longer than the other and was never going to make it as a professional footballer
Ridiculous, I know, but that's how I remember it. And I really can't be bothered searching back and posting any links to prove it.
Here's a thought - both the club the Football Writers POTY events are happening at the same time. Which one do Max and KVV choose to attend? Can they work it out to attend both?
I'm aware that UEFA say the higher seed has priority. Not sure if that means they get the choice, or that they just play on the allocated dates.
Also, Ryanair flights to Prague for the 2nd leg dates are currently much cheaper than for the 1st leg dates.
My son's just shown me a post from social media suggesting the new kit will be on show at 5pm.
Not sure how genuine it is but he seems to think it's legit.
