Some shocking shouts on this thread below about DCL...only one or two of them my own, btw.


About 50 pages from there onward is pure unadulterated criticism.

Apparently it was only me who criticised him though.

:coffee:
 

A lot of people will jump on him if/when he goes a few games without scoring or fails to do the business against the 'top 6' teams. When he does go off the boil (let's face it, all strikers, all players do), he'll still be causing problems for defenders and making space for others.

I don't get the impression he's a bottler (most overused and misused word in sport. Hate it and I apologise for using it). Always thought his misses in the past were more down to inexperience, lack of confidence and general lack of composure. As he feels more comfortable at this level, I think he's more likely to be the one to break the hoodoo (see Spurs away). Remember this lad scored the winner in a world cup final. Yeah, it was only Under 20 but for those players, at that time, it was the highest pressure game they could possibly play in.
This lad will only get better over the next few years imo. which is a bit scary for opposition teams considering he's already a handful. But great news for us
 

England squad announced today init?

Be interesting to see if Southgate leaves him out again after his start to the season.

Southgate is a massive helmet though so wouldn't suprise me
 
Hail the tap in merchant

A goal is a goal whether it's a screamer,penalty or a tap in...

If you win 1-0 it does not matter how the goal was scored the result was 1-0...

Most top goalscorers take penalties to top up their tallies also, DCL does not...

You need to have the instinct to be in the right places at the right time which is a skill al on its own...
