Definitely, felt the same. Always liked Erik but thought we’d seen the best of him. Looked really good I thought, popping up everywhere, fit as a butchers dog! The running up stands training is paying dividends.José's persistence on him looks to be finally paying off. Still don't know if José prefers him more at CB or at CDM, but he's become better and better with every game passing. Makes me think I was right when I thought that he had fitness problems, and that I was wrong when I thought that his legs were totally gone and that he wouldn't be able to fix them.
Make him club captain and build the defence around him, you need players who will die for what they believe in (Roberts, King, Perryman) what they lacked in ability and fitness they make up for with sheer grit ... the never say die mentality that scores goals in the 84th minute of a Cup Final ...
Running over some seats to front some mug who had abused your brother - that's the sort of mentality we want (stupid thing to do but brilliant) - he's had a tough season not least because of the twats (we have 'em on here) who can't wait to stick the knife into one of their own players, well at least one 'fan' won't be mouthing off anymore, wish the same could be said for some of the rest.
He is a hero, on the pitch yesterday he showed that, club captain material all day long.
Knee jerk post or the year.
Why? or are you just looking for attention with no substance?
It was just a dumb post to suggest a guy who isn't even a first team regular, doesn't even know what his best position is and has a contract running down should be made club captain.
Ok if that is the case. You are talking absolute bullshit. If you are on £100k a week representing a big brand and on national tv. Do you think this behaviour is professional or even remotely acceptable?
Amazing, he actually plays better in the position he was always meant to play in. Fuck me, pay me 15 mil A year.
I'm not and I can. I don't buy into all this reverence for the sanctity of the Premier League football ground. It's not a temple and the players aren't gods. At the end of the day, in spite of the expensive frills, it's just a football match.You are talking out your arse. There is no way you can defend this.
5 or 6 match ban I reckon, silly thing to do but when its your family and you see it ,what ya gonna do?
I hope the FA take it into consideration.
I love Patrick Dier, Patrick Dier loves me .... sing along , new verse No 4
No bus conductor looked at a pie chart and apparently Ndombele was better than Dier
