Cook My Sock reacted to duncanmckenzieismagic in Ramiro Funes Mori
IMO he is nowhere near as good as Stones , but then I rate Stones very highly
He is however more than good enough to be back up to Jags and Williams. I think we are lucky to have a 3rd choice CB of his quality

Agree with the rest but not the last bit. Watched 2 Arsenal games and he's seemed way out of his depth when I saw him

But you can't keep referring back to that.
When you keep bringing the same thing up, quite randomly at times, you start to nullify the valid points that you make. Because it goes from being constructive to sounding vindictive.
Like everyone this season, he gets to start again. He hasn't blown anyone away yet but I do think we missed him tonight.

Missed him massively tonight. And it's always noticeable when he's missing. If he gets a long-term injury, or even just a couple of months, our season will be down the shitter.

We are toothless without him. Maybe Valencia could be a decent foil for him if we go two up front, but with a lone striker it has to be Rom.

I know you're being sarcastic, but actually you're spot on

Some players take their foot off the gas when they hit the jackpot. Let him earn it over a longer period

Cook My Sock reacted to Hafnia in Ross Barkley
Pressure and confidence? This lad had been told his career was practically over at 16... he built himself back up.
He then gets his dream debut against QPR and looks a star.... the next game he makes a couple of mistakes and the moyesosaurus drags him off and we see naff all of him again.
He gets loaned out to play for yard dog managers. Gets back in and only towards moyes leaving gets a game in central midfield and runs the show against Arsenal. Having been played in moyes favourite position to destroy players... right midfield (see Naismith, Aj, Rodwell)
Martinez comes in and to be fair the lad looks class. Confident and has a cracking season.maetinez gives him the platform and encouragement he needed. It gets him a call up to go the world cup and the prick hodgson destroys him. He comes back a shell of the player we seen at the end of the season.
Two years on... rinse and repeat.
Fans have a lot to answer for with this kid. Most players would have fucked off by now in his shoes.
Character? I think you sell the lad short. I think he has plenty of bottle, it's just a pity he doesn't get looked after.
It's fine to critique a player on a forum, i'd never give shit to a player at the game.... this lad is the only one who gets it. Fuckin wrong.

The sunderland players running round after him.

Cook My Sock reacted to Hafnia in Ashley Williams
we never - it was walsh's first recommendation and likely came as a result of Leicester choosing an alternative to backfill Kante.
Walsh came in 21/07 - Gueye came in 03/08.... Walsh wanted Gueye at Leicester and had to get Kante when Gueye picked Villa.

nasty jealous managers who wish they had a 1/10th of his ability as a player.
Le tissier suffered the same way - ironically also at the hands of hoddle who suffered the same way.
But hey! lets give the likes of Phil Neville, Ray Wilkins loads of caps

Christ. I like Gueye but can we not pretend he's a better player than Pogba. It makes us look silly.
