I mean, who lobbied for this?
I have never heard anyone say they think it would be a good idea to rule out a goal scored after a goalkeeper parries a penalty kick and a fellow knocks in the rebound.
No one.
Ever.
This smacks of people...
Bizarre. So they're changing the balance to give the defending team, the team that commited a foul in the box, a greater benefit?
Every new rule introduced makes football worse. It used to be a simple game. It's now an unnecessarily complicated...
Defo could do with some concrete links from reputable sources as it's getting spicy in here 🤣
Could be a loooooonnnngggg weekend unless boyland, bobble or Joyce pipe up.
I dont & havent said that.
What I did do was state (in response to your question) that Guimaraes was already ace in Lyon. Just as Tonali was and also even Wharton looked.
Not many said the same. Those are the posters who are downplaying this...
Well there’s fairly obviously a problem with the way you’re presenting it to be fair, in that I don’t know how I could make it clearer that I don’t disagree with the idea that he’s a decent prospect who could progress. As I’ve said numerous...
It depends what you think of as ridiculous I suppose. You brought up the example of Wharton, who cost £18m. Is that ridiculous? Would Hackney cost less?
Again, the whole point was whether it would be ‘underwhelming’ not whether he was a decent...
It does, but I’d have to say I was more impressed by Wharton and he was 19 when he moved not 23 so the difference is actually pretty massive in that sense. Like I said, it’s not that I don’t think Hackney is good or that he couldn’t be a good...
Not saying he isn’t. In terms of perception , compared to a Bruno Guimares type statement signing that Newcastle made.
(Cue ten people misunderstanding the point)
I’d find him a bit underwhelming. I’ve seen a fair bit of him and I wouldn’t say he’s screamed top class player. He’s definitely decent and could be as good addition, but he’d need to step up another few gears to be a genuinely good PL player and...
Whats the correlation with the players i've said everton should sign?
Those who have shown they can step up as superstars e.g Guimaraes & Tonali are worth far more than any players who havent become stars.
Those who arent now superstars may...
