MR just lowering expectations as he always does.

https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/10196716/tottenham-wonderkid-dermi-lusala/ I know it's the Sun, but he seemed to be highly rated at one time

Was that not true then?

I would say it's very useful for the club to have forum members with inside knowledge, who are trusted and able to shut down any false rumours etc. and also to keep interest going without giving too much away. Only yesterday we had a poster (I assume, from subsequent posts) falsely claiming our...

Looks like they have got a spare leg for him anyway. in the left corner

Is that a bandage on his ankle?

I think most people would agree goals scored (by anyone who can kick or head a ball) is directly related to the number of chances created. What varies is their conversion rate. The infinite monkey theorem.

Fulham only managed 13 points from the last 10 games, 3 points more than us over the same games, and then only courtesy of a final day 7-0 win against a Luton team already qualified for the playoffs, and on the beach.

One of the main things affecting how well a player does is the quality of the players around him, obvious, I know. If a team can afford to put 3 players on him he won't score many, and nor would most players. Loss of form is always a possibility for any player, but I don't get the comment about...

About as likely as Bale going to Cardiff

Enjoy your trip

Are we really getting upset about totally unsubstantiated rumours which in all likelyhood are invented by attention seekers?

What's happened to his neck?

Brian Clough was on the TV experts panel, he was the only one predicting a Coventry win. I feared the worse though when Clive Allen's goal went in. The Tottenham team were going round casually shaking hands if I remember correctly, they thought they had the game sewn up after 2 minutes.

I think Milan Fukal might suit our budget

No, just 7 examples. CCFC1234 makes the point much better than I have. It's human nature for a parent to want their child to excel if they have an ability. It's effectively private coaching from a top professional, it gives any child a massive advantage to maximise any potential they have.

The luck wasn't all our way though, I seem to remember one of their players raising his arms in a way that should have been 100% a sending off but the ref missed it.

Did you find out? Cause I was wondering the same thing

I think the big differentiator is that a successful footballing dad (especially with an international career) is generally likely to put a lot of work and effort into their child's early training and keep them at it. A number of examples are Tony Hateley, Frank Lampard, Peter Schmeichel, Ian...
