Do you even watch Spurs games?You said Dele was one of the biggest grafters in the team which is clearly bollocks.
You've posted no facts my friend. You say he's a great sprinter - that is NOT grafting.Sprinting is NOT running around a lot.
What makes up a team that plays with intensity?
Where are your facts, John? Still not a single one posted by you, why is this?
Fuck off pups. You haven't a fucking clue.Do you even watch Spurs games?
Ask him what direction he was running in, John.
It was you that claimed facts, not me. You claimed that your opinion was a fact. Your opinion is just that, an opinion.You've posted no facts my friend. You say he's a great sprinter - that is NOT grafting.
I have told you what I and others who watch games see.
You need to stop acting like a child and just realise you made a statement of fact and that you're wrong.
You said Dele was one of the biggest grafters in the team, which is your opinion (an incorrect one). Therefore you initiated this 'discussion'.It was you that claimed facts, not me. You claimed that your opinion was a fact. Your opinion is just that, an opinion.
When asked to support your opinion with facts you can't, which evidences just how weak your opinion is. You then double-down by saying it's because "you watch football".
I've backed up my opinion with facts and explanation.
Let's just leave it here fella, you are offering absolutely nothing to this conversation, one which you initiated. Thinking that you might have something intelligent to say I responded. Oh dear, I should have known better.
Other than an ugly arrogance you've said absolutely nothing to support your opinion and you being so thick to comprehend anything put before you is simply an utter waste of my time and no doubt the poor bastards having to trawl through this shite. See ya.
Your comments suggest you don't eitherLeave the graphs alone boys for fucks sake and watch a game. Jesus
NO ONE has said "he's a Roy Keane" apart from you just now.Fuck me Dele is Roy Keane now.
Is this a joke?
He sprints a lot. So Eriksen who covered 5000km a game is also one of our hardest workers?
Leave the graphs alone boys for fucks sake and watch a game. Jesus
The stats also suggest Lloris and Gaz are proper lazy cunts....sell? No sprints no marathons no tackles.....I mean what the fuck are they doing?
:mourfacepalm:
For me, Lamela and Moura graft, Henderson is a grafter, Milner is a grafter, Vardy is a grafter.So please define what a "grafter" is Sammy and why not illustrate this with some intelligent context and examples.
Now you're talking, Sammy. He ducked out of challenging for an aerial ball near the halfway line in the 53rd minute, and within seconds, Ings had an attempt that went inches wide.For me, Lamela and Moura graft, Henderson is a grafter, Milner is a grafter, Vardy is a grafter.
Players who chase lost causes, close down keepers from the halfway line, put the boot in and risk getting hurt. Players that don’t shy away from headers in the middle of the pitch and jump with their back first.
Players who try desperately to rectify their own mistakes instead of standing there flapping their arms at others.
Players who don’t need everything to be perfect before having a go.
Maybe your definition is Dele Alli. Good for you mate.
Does every game. The only header he ever goes for is one at the far post.Now you're talking, Sammy. He ducked out of challenging for an aerial ball near the halfway line in the 53rd minute, and within seconds, Ings had an attempt that went inches wide.
There are similarities between the two, I agree. I sincerely believe he does not challenge for the ball with sufficient aggression. Afraid of getting hurt or something.Does every game. The only header he ever goes for is one at the fat post.
Grafter my arse.
The bloke is literally Eriksen
But he “runs abaaat a bit”......therefore should play every game.There are similarities between the two, I agree. I sincerely believe he does not challenge for the ball with sufficient aggression. Afraid of getting hurt or something.
You talk facts??The facts don't back up what you said. You'll no doubt keep up with this childish mantra however, he's not one of the biggest grafters in the team.
Anyone with eyes who watches our games knows that. You talk facts and stats (without having any) whilst I talk about what is actually happening and what we see.
Right, so all very subjective, how do you go about supporting that? I ask this because you are focusing on stylistic preference, not specifically what it is that they are performing. Whilst I agree to aspects of this, it only really works if people agree with the identified player and all those that you list I agree are grafters BTW.For me, Lamela and Moura graft, Henderson is a grafter, Milner is a grafter, Vardy is a grafter.

And the stats said last season that Eriksen is better than DeBruyneYou talk facts??
You posted a link of a randomer asking what Dele does not including "his pointless stats from years ago" .....but then ignoring his stats this season of 7 goals and 3 assists in 17 games which ranks as one of the best attacking mid stats of the whole division.
But yes you speak facts looooool, laughable.
