i think that did happen made the lads laugh, giles ran out with tears apparently, mumbling about carrick
Can we talk about Pedro more. That run and dribble for the 3rd goal was class. Imagine having him 4/5 years ago.
I genuinely think having Joseph on to start given how much he runs to tire out the centre backs and having Pedro on for the last 25 mins is going to be a real ace up the sleeve. As you’ve said that run was class but he’s come on with fresh legs which I think certainly helped
I'd posted a link to a column that had suggested those figs, Greaves on 25 and Omur and Giles on 35.. no guarantee they're right but also not totally unbelievable
Been telling you all how good he is since he first arrived. He’s probably still just as good now I get the feeling he’s never been fast or strong but he’s very intelligent and got great feet. I would love to see him playing with Joseph so he would have some proper freedom to get on the ball and make things happen.
Saw him for Huddersfield and he's big strong and direct with a decent dribble if I recall . Always looked a handful to me . Mind you then so did Dolly Parton !
I saw him a few years back against Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch Reserves - he's a short arse, like Slater.
What I like is he really seems to like it here and his reaction after the goal with the fans was great to see!
Yeah he’s already adopted a cult status and I think he loves it. I was critical of the signing but glad to be proven wrong
When ,'Colin' gives a player a glowing report you have to sit up and take notice, he may be a twat, but he does know his onions.
He’s well past his sell by date. There are posters on here that are more knowledgable about the modern game.
Five years ago he was banging in goals for Cagliari in Serie A. 18 goals in 2019-2020 and then 16 in 20/21. He then had 13 goals in the following season and Cagliari were relegated, which is why he left for Fener. I'd like to see his option triggered; whoever we sign strikerwise in the next 12 months is going to learn a hell of a lot from a player like that.
He's up there with the most intelligent footballers we've ever had at the club, if not the most ( when it comes to a footballing Brain ). He's absolutely levels above anyone on the pitch ATM.
