Phil was great 2nd half, josko really good too. Probably silvas best game for us in 18 months.

Credit where credit is due Nunes very good game at RB.
Happy out.


“Very good”? Would hate to see him have just a good game then! Some OTT shit on here at times

Don't begrudge him, he was very good, out of position as well.
But we all see it differently.

Josko was “very good” hence MOTM. Was Nunes on par?

You literally reply to people shutting them down constantly :lol: no way have you just said that haha! Go through your posts and you’ll see that you tell people to not “talk rubbish”. I’ll wait wait for you to do it again and then pull you up on it.

It’s a forum. If someone says someone was “very good” we can discuss it. No one has said why he was “very good” today. I see you’ve downgraded your rating of him from “very good” to just “good” now. Interesting

If we are serious about retaining the crown next season, melts like Nunes need to be flogged. Let's say for arguments sake he had a decent game, how many decent games against shit games he's had since he's been with us??

My one criticism of Marmoush is the three offsides.One of them cost Bernie a goal. Haaland is excellent at keeping offside. Marmoush can learn from him. Obviously eager to exploit Chelsea’s high line which was correct.

Give up Zuri, it doesn't matter in what context you, sheblue and others type it in the witch hunters have the stake ready to burn Nunes.

I am NOT saying he was MOTM material but by his recent performances/standards he had a good game for him.

Yes he is being played out of position AGAIN today, but he didn't fuck up to levels of other recent games costing us the game. So yes it can be said he had a good game today.

Unfortunately some people just pure hate for the guy.

Someone mentioned about him being gone in the summer, reality is that we won't be allowed to make wholesale changes come July because of shitty PSR, there are other players needed first to replace Gundo, Bernardo, Stones just of the top of my head.

Just late the haters hate, because they just start attacking you because you're not a hater. Leave them to their angry lives.

There is a lot about this season I don't like but I won't get vexed about it, it's bad for your health.

I saw a lot I liked of him today, he'll get used to Offside and the pace of the league (compared to Ligue 1).

Today, he should have layed the ball off to Phil rather shooting himself directly at the keeper.

That said, the future does look bright for him.

A lot of waffle that. People are allowed to comment on what is happening during a match - in a match thread. Saying “Nunes misplaced a pass” or “Nunes beaten again” or even “I don’t afree Nunes was ‘very good’ annd here’s why…” isn’t hate. It’s commenting on the game. You do it often yourself.

But according to Zuri can you not make a post like that again please, people don’t have to answer to you.

Yes I have criticised Nunes along with many others, in many a match thread, but calling Zuri and SheBlue out for actually offering a match summary of his performance as being really good. Instead they get called out for by the angry mob for God forbid praising any player in a game we actually won.

Perhaps SheBlue should have written "he had a very good game by his standards and i am happy we won"

Like I wrote, he didn't cost us the game today which is a good game for him and he did have much better defensive and offensive moments today than in other games, which given he's been again being played out of position.

Correct me if I am wrong, the posts I am referring by SheBlue and Zuri were post match (or very close to), rather during the match as you inferred.

Oh & please don't accuse me of being passive aggressive again, it's tiresome.

100% irrelevant here CFTG, that said i am fairly sure I am not alone, go figure. Perhaps running is better for you than power walking, it helps run off the aggression.
