wow my head hurts, that was at least 10 shots or something…
I was rewatching the highlights of the game and I´m gonna call that a clean sheet despite the goal, I don´t think anyone in our team would have put that in the net if the opposition goalie was signaling to the ref that he was injured.
Great goals… That first touch of Isak made that first goal, I can´t really say it was a assist as that was a shot by Macca, great pass by Jones for the 2nd goal and I have to say, when ever Robbo plays we actually play good. He is still miles better than Kerkez, I can´t believe we are letting him go.
Great assist by Macca for the 3rd goal and what a finish by Wirtz.
Never let your fisherman friends buy you drinks, just say no… fuck, there were a few cocktails as well and a endless amount of beer. That buddy of mine is actually a Newcastle fan, for some freak reason, while his father was fishing in Grimsby. He really misses Isak, he was gutted when he left despite the hefty fee we paid.
Cause we were talking and this is a lad that watched Isak play every weekend and we both agreed that he is that greedy striker that demands the ball, he will have a go at his wingers if they do not feed him the ball and that is a quality we have not seen from our striker for a long time.
Cause in my opinion that is a competitive attribute that makes strikers better, Suarez used to have a go at anyone when they did not give him the pass he wanted, Sturridge used to listen and demanded the same from Suarez when he was in a better position. Like when Mane had his outburst towards Salah that one time, I loved it. Everyone loved it, Salah even listened and started feeding him more. After that one argument the front three became the most balanced strike force I have ever seen. Except Messi, Neymar and Suarez. That was on steroids though… It was 24 goals for Salah, 23 goals for Mane, I think Bobby got 18 but I´m not sure about his number. They also had almost the same numbers for assists, Bobby providing more assists but he assisted both of them equal times or there about.
We need that leadership from Isak, I don´t see anyone else doing it right now with Salah leaving. Cause I am giving Salah the title over Slot last season, Salah forced our tactics with his contract negotiations and just bossed everyone around him in the final third for the whole season or until we won the title. Then he signed a new contract and Slot starting bossing him around.
I can´t believe we are tied for 3rd place right now, what a crappy season this has been in the premier league, all clubs have turned into shit. BTW it was fun cheering with this west ham lad at the pub yesterday, I had the pub cheering for Wolves lol. Shame spurs got their win… I really wanna see them go down as they deserve it. Sacking Ange was the worst decision they have ever made!
