Yeah, he showed how soft he was when he was the first one looking to throttle McGinn, after he tried to cut Udogie in half.

He needs to channel that more, but he's still just 22. He hasn't hit his straps yet. Wasn't Kane 23 when he had his breakout season?

I think the issue that many have is the price tag, and the expectation that comes with that. He's expected to hit the ground running, because we weighed out £50M for him. Whereas, the reality is that he's a youngster still learning his trade. The positive is that despite that, he's still putting up respectable numbers. The all-round game will improve as he matures.

well yea thats true. its not his fault he went for 50m and was brought in to play in a possession based system when thats not his forte.

lloris was the same. after a blunder or a let down the camera would pan to him and hed have that hopeless silly look on his face. its the same with johnson. after a let down he has that silly look on his face.

yes, usually if they have a silly haircut they are usually a cunt. pogba, jackson etc

And why do so many left backs have mental barnets??

What’s all that about??

i find it hard to listen to him. i find it fucking irritating. just trying to waffle his way through with shit. its like hes trying to actually convince himself with some of his answers.

he gives over elaborate answers to questions without actually answering the question. its all very strange

I find him a bit condescending too.

Got you. Personally I’m a bit more of a jack of all trades. Passing interest in a few things.
But not an expert. Body language 101 so to speak.
I like to know when a woman likes me.

You however seem to be specialising in facial expressions.
Maybe just the soft ones??

This may be of interest to you anyway. Although maybe you have this site bookmarked at your level of knowledge.

i cant imagine the whole women liking you thing happens much? you seem a bit of an undesirable knob.

all i know is when i see a fuckup or a letdown on a football pitch from a player, i want to see anger not despair. anger shows strength, despair shows weakness. the lloris and johnsons have that despair look on speedial.

Also in which games has Johnson actually taken by the throat and killed it? A lot his goals / assists are when we already losing. It’s the general overall play which lets us down. Hold up, beating a player, clever passes, tracking back, tenacious, etc. He doesn’t bring any of that to the table. Moves break down bcos of him or we get no where bcos his unwilling or doesn’t have the skill to do something.

We've lost one game in which he's scored or assisted. Liverpool last week.

Edit: Sorry, 2 at a check. Wolves earlier in the season too.

So if we were losing those games and he's popped up with an assist/goal, they've been very important.

After a further look, his goals/assists have been worth 14 points to us this season. Tirning draws in to victories, and losses into draws. I don't think that's bad at all for his first season. For someone who still looks very raw and is learning a totally different system to one he's used to.

Now now David.

You can’t see my face.

With your expert subject I don’t think you can judge much on that basis sunshine.

I refuse to criticise Ange in these sorts of games, we legitimately should have won that by 3-4. 1st half was patchy but the 2nd half was very good. Been a theme all season that our wastefulness has meant its taken us to the last 10 minutes to overun teams..especially at home.
 
First season and he taken us to 5th.....that's a big achievement considering Kane went who got the team kicking and screaming vital goals.
Let's see who he brings in transfers in the summer and what his plan is...if there is one or if his tactics are game by game.....but it'll sure be exciting.
Can see Maddison coming back to form at the start of next season aswell
