Dixie Dean wouldn't score 5 goals a season in the modern game the goal hanging Wirral gimp.

BLASPHEMY .....take that back.

 

[bring the ghost on]

Why arent we playing richie up front until kean is ready and siggy, bernard and iwobi behind him?

Yeah, it's a fair shout. I suspect the logic is that Rich seems to score a similar amount from the WF position than he does the CF position anyway, and it does more naturally suit his game and he can create as well as score.

Prick. Why wasn't every [Poor language removed] scoring 60 then,

He was the best around in those days but being the best in those days was like being the nicest Nazi. Not all that much to shout about,

Brilliant you obviously have not read what an athlete he was it was the same pitch in his era 60 goals in one season I have read it all now from a Blue FGS -
Look up his record even for England his scoring

Yep but surely its a stronger side with jim up front and those 3 behind. Much stronger really.

I personally think that it is something he should have been concerned about. That could just be me, though

This line of discussion does seem deeply transgressive.

So ‘erm, I wish DCL was performing better. I had hopes he could grow into this position. It feels like his chance is slipping away right now and if I’m honest, I would like him to show just more urgency somehow.

 

[Death]

And what sort of service has he had during that time?

I'll answer that for you, utter garbage

And has he ever played in a system that doesn't leave him hopelessly isolated and without any form of adequate support?

I'll answer that for you as well, no he hasn't

All the same complaints he gets will be the ones Kean will be getting in due course, because to play in this Marco Silva system as a lone striker you may as well be in Timbuktu

Run for the hills it's 'no more Mr nice guy' Mikey.

Absolutely no chance, it’s easy to bang in 60 when you can just chill on the goal line and not worry about a linesman’s flag. Worse than Pele and his goals against blind orphan children.

if you are the best when you are the best, that is it. He did not benefit from....

a, a ball specially designed to make goals easier....for the benefit of TV

b, Defenders not allowed to breathe near you

c, great playing surfaces

d, sports science

e, loads of cash

Being the best around for a goalscorer has NEVER been easier. The game is designed for TV and cheats.

I answered that post straight away angered, but diplomatically, I would expect that from over he park even then it may be a minority of them ....
That to be on the GOT from a blue was disgusting!i imo!

If Richarlison was more robust he'd make a good striker,
also I don't think he's got it in him to do all the running that Silva wants.
Get the feeling DCL will do whatever Silva asks where as Richarlison is more likely to sulk.
Think Richarlison should be made to play there at the moment, forced to man up
Cause he'll get more goals than DCL.

In the match against Bournemouth, when he hits the crossbar-
If that had been Sig with Richarlison in front, instead of Richarlison with DCL in front
Sig would have threaded that ball in behind and Richarlison would have probably scored, 1 on 1.

Richarlison may be a bit lightweight for me, but he knows how to score.
