Nobody wants to get beat by these nu-football bellends and its bloody hard to take positives when you see your team so comprehensively attacked for 90 minutes with virtually no respite or countering. But ultimately, such is the gulf that City's money is creating, it is our only sensible option to go there and man mark, try and grind out a draw or maybe even nick a sneaky goal and win. It is naivety of the highest order to think man for man we are able to go there and try anything else. Up until a player who couldnt sum up his employers anymore with just his knobhead demenour scored a lucky deflected strike, and for what represented three quarters of the game on Saturday, that's exactly what we did, so fair fucks to the players for improving individually upon the West Brom performances and standing up to be counted. We were beaten by a better team, end of story really.
There were some encouraging individual performances for Everton, Jack Rodwell for instance did as well as he could against David Silva throughout, whose absolutely sublime pass, honestly its as good as you will see at least this season (after Drenthe gave the ball away) to James Milner who then slotted, gave the result a shine for which maybe Evertons honesty in the game didn't deserve, I'm not one for Opta Stats, but they don't make for completely horrendous reading. Cahill too toiled and fought hard up top again, as did the likes of Baines, Jagielka and Distin at the other end of the pitch. Hopefully the aforementioned Austrailian will come through a cunt of challenge from Kompany late on to do his annual pantomime villain routine on the Redshite hordes this saturday, doesnt look good though.
The jubilation for which the City fans greeted both goals and the final whistle just goes to show how much it meant for them to beat little old us, its been a while for them afterall, and it is a measure of just how much, whether we like it or not, they know we stand for something completely different in modern football. And it doesn't half irk the wankers.
Lets not get too downhearted, lets look forward to a much more winnable game on Saturday against our closest rivals, not only in geography but as the best of the 'also rans' and give it a right good go from the start. This should represent more closely where we are this season in terms of our expectations.
As previously stated, I certainly would have swapped a City spanking for a Derby win, I'll pass on the Noose for now until Dirk Kuyt nods in a 93rd minute winner at the street end.
Up the toffs.
we dont stand for anything in modern football. if we had the dough we'd be at it too. i cant understand some everton supporters thinking we're this special case.
ReplyDeletei dont go shopping at waitrose. i might be against everything they stand for (whatever that is) but the reason i dont go is i cant afford it.
You can analogise it as much as you want biff, the thing is, it doesn't make it any different to us just becoming a victim of reversed financial circumstance. Whether you're happy with it or not(im not) us being skint and trying to do it a bit differently gets on their tits. They want to feel superior, but deep down they cant. Simply because it stands for more to do things through hard work and effort rather than lashing a load of moolah at it...much like swelling up with pride that your kid might of done great at his GCSE's, got into a good school, unlike that fat fuck rich kid from round the corner who did a little better than your son but had all the help in the world from his maths, english,french tutors paid for by his mum and dad......speaking of his mum with her fake tits and botox'd fod and eyebrows, it doesnt half make you give an even bigger ''COR!'' everytime your own wife walks in with her better tits and body through all that gym work she does to achieve them...etc etc etc etc....
