  1. I think jansen was better. He had more technical ability than Bellamy. Bellamy was quicker but jansen had that special talent. I can never forget that incredible debut goal v spurs. Everyone around me just stood up in amazement
  2. Just shows up our pathetic effort against forest when Blackpool can hammer them 4-1
  3. I did say some were past it. But he was a big name back in the 90s. I'm just trying to convey how many reputable forwards we had
  4. Just listen to when a goal is scored. With women they put on an over the top voice. When its men it comes natural. I'm not anti female. It's just a find female commentators to be bland and uninspiring
  5. Even after Jack's money dried up after his death we attracted players like Mccarthy rsq Bellamy. I know this league we can't attract that sort of player but it's sad what we have now compared to those days
  6. We've had some incredible strikers over the years. Going back 30 years, and yes some were past their prime but shearer, yorke Sutton, Cole, Fowler, Bellamy, dahlin, sukur, roque santa cruz, Mccarthy, Gallagher. Now we have players like hirst and Sam Gallagher
  7. The trouble with female commentators is their commentary is too forced. With the men, it's just natural.
  8. What's roi? Republic of Ireland?
  9. We'll never know until he's given a chance
  10. I think toney would thrive for a top 4 club. Hes got a bit of everything for a modern day striker. If he can score goals in a mediocre team like Brentford. He'll bang them in for Chelsea
  11. Disagree. Jim White is a bellend. Jordan is one of few who talks sense on that show
  12. Players whinging they play to many games. They're getting paid 300,000 grand a week some of them. They kick a bloated oval object around a pitch. Twice a week. Try working 60 hours a week for minimal wages.
  13. Another irksome thing that bothers me is when footballers use social media to apologise for lack of effort or poor performance. 'I'm sorry I couldn't turn up today. I apologise profusely'. Etc etc. imagine if u put on facebook about not bothering to do any work at ur employment. 'Oh I'm sorry boss I didn't try. U understand '
  14. Players wearing gloves in cold weather. It just irks me. Also footballers putting their hand on their chest during the national anthem. It's such an Americanism.
  15. No I really have. I'll watch them but I no longer have any real aspirations. That defeat against France deflated me because they're a bunch of rubber dinghy men
  16. Hes clearly nowhere near worth 120 million. Hes young though. Hes better than kante was at that age. And no I have washed my hands of England after yet another failure. My belief in them has gone and no there aren't a number of better players in the position in what he does. In fact I would place him in the top 5 players in the world as far as holding/box to box players go. I can only think of maybe casimero and maybe kante as being better. Take into account kante looks finished
  17. Hes very good technically. He doesn't lose possession. He's got a great engine. Good passer. If he was called declino ricerino you would be raving about him
  18. I remember the first time we were relegated back in 99. The first few months of the season, as I sat in the Darwen End where away supporters were segregated from us by a barrier, all I could hear from away supporters was vitriol directed to the home fans such as 'you're shit' etc. The hatred in their eyes just because we had jack walker's money was palpable
  19. No. Hes fantastic for England and has been for West Ham. He can't do everything in a poor West Ham team. He'll thrive at a big club when he moves on
  20. Rather skip the fa Cup and concentrate on the league. The club never take it seriously anyway
  21. Can't see villa keeping hold of emery for long. Getting him was a huge coup. He's guaranteed to bring some success to them
  22. I literally just answered that in the above post. And no he was at man city first
  23. Yes I suppose. Forgot about that one and I guess Sunderland at home and Blackpool away
