Sounds like a roundabout way of saying "scar tissue" to me. Doesn't really explain why Leicester are running away with the league, though.

It was only about 30 yards out and he volleyed it from a keepers head out, the keeper left himself on the edge of the box so it was an empty net. An epic goal, but not quite the worldy you seem to be remembering. There used to be a video on YouTube set to "Roc ya body, mic check 1-2" that had it on, it was basically like a compilation of that championship season. Ended up with Burley coming in set to "The Key the Secret" 😂 worked out well. Anyway, can't find that video anymore. Did find Javis old YouTube channel (remember him!?) though which has the classic "saint until u die" on it (original Saints song over footage of the 2003 FA cup run) as well as few other Idiakez themed videos and bizarrely a video of Mario Licka scoring a penalty for Caen. https://youtu.be/xmb4xfZEDO0?si=MtEvQfiUHpfwY_pd

This sounds good until you realise there are 9 teams this season with 20 or more points and the top two both have more than 30. We're not competing with last season's teams, we're competing with this season's who are clearly at a higher level.

The style of play doesn't suit our strikers or, to be honest, any strikers really. It doesn't allow them to be dynamic and make runs because the players are told not to try risky through balls or balls over the top. A player like Mara is going to struggle as he is a player that needs to be running with the ball and getting on the end of passes, not receiving the ball with his back to goal and trying to lay it off before repeating it again 10 yards forward until we NFL style move up the pitch a little bit at a time. He's especially going to struggle with only being given short cameos to do anything in. The guy has had a grand total of 226 minutes on the pitch with 72 of those coming V Sunderland when the whole team was a disaster.

I enjoyed it, and was disappointed to see that it actually went in off Evans with little or no touch from Bazunu because how often is he going to get the chance to experience that.

One thing that is for certain is that we cannot start selling people in January if we are serious about getting promoted.

Yep, the mark of a truly great keeper is whether or not he can nearly get his head on a last minute corner that then goes in via own goal. Consider me proven wrong.

As far away from our goal as possible it seems.

Annoyingly it won't even go down as his goal as it goes in off the defender. Would have been amazing.

Leeds losing as well. Could have gone 3rd.

So inconsistent. Never gonna go up playing this way.

Ched Evans was innocent boys, careful labelling him as anything he isn't.

I don't think you can ever not give handball when a player is stood on the goal line.

Ref doesn't know the rules, sending Che off for receiving treatment when the offending player was booked.

Was actually handball on the line, very lucky there.

I hope this is tongue in cheek.

Great finish.

This shirt pulling has to be an instruction surely, way too much of it going on.

Yeah and at least in the WSL it would require a comparatively much smaller level of investment to compete. The record women's signing was only just broken for a million quid, I think.

😂🤦🏼‍♂️ it was a sarcastic post, there were a bunch of others around the same time. Always happens on here when a player who rarely scores or has been criticised during the match pops up with a goal.

It was just after and that was the joke, genius.

Can Martin please stop doing the cringe hand waving following by fist pumping every time we win.

Fraser is shit.

Wasn't it part of Peps philosophy at Barca that they try to get a shot on target within 8 seconds of winning the ball back otherwise they recycle possession?

I wonder if we'll ever see all of our best attacking talent on the pitch at the same time.
