Haha! Just watching extended highlights of Stoke Vs Liverpool. Liverpool passed it like a boss. I kept thinking: "who's that Spanish looking midfielder!?" just seen a close up. Joe Allen with long hair and a beard!? Looks really funny! Looks like he's been shipwrecked!
Not to harp on, but still on this Youtube scout channel. Just seen a scout report on Martin Odegaard. I know how big a prospect he was, and how everyone wanted him at 15. I've seen footage of what he can do. This Video..Wow. I can't believe he is still so young. I wish England had a lad like this! He already, moves, thinks, and tries stuff that Messi, Ronaldo and Bale do! At 15/16/17. No wonder Madrid made such a massive push for him. He's going to be incredible.
People say it's his workrate and his finishing. If you watch this video, no matter how thick he come across when interviewed. When it comes to football, the timing of all these runs is the key. Pace and finishing help, but just watch him off the ball. that's how he leaves defenders behind.
I heard on Talksport this morning, a reporter from Manchester said City wanted to concentrate on tonight, and rest people for the game against Norwich. Their side tonight looks pretty strong.
I heard that too, it was about 7:00AM this morning. Arrogant buggers, hopefully we'll stuff their second eleven!
Would have been better if they had left the lights on! Some instinctive finishing there, have to hand it to him.
I am sure the commentator said that Sturridge had scored in eight successive games " two times in a row ". Surely that means 16 successive games.
Adama Traore has broken a metatarsal and is out for 2 months. Almost enough to make you feel sorry for Villa.
