/a made up stat that seems realistic

Seems low to me honestly.

Missed the last fifteen of each game because I had to teach someone how to use casemap. Fuck me running.

Do you have to spell to get one of those contracts?

Sterling had better be good. Doesn’t he already have a couple of kids to provide for?
Just one. His new contract is around £30k a week though so he should be alright.

I thought I had heard on either Men in Blazers or the Guardian podcast that he had two and maybe 3 kids. They may have just been exagerating. Either way, where do I get one of those $30k/week contracts? They sound nice.

Men in Blazers always talked about how he looked like a witch with Tottenham.

Well your opinion is likely wrong. He’s not new and it’s not “coming” he’s been the most highly regarded young English forward since he was 14 and has has success at every level thusfar. He is a very very special talent.

So you agree he fits the hope profile, but you think he actually pans out as a world class player, while I don’t. I’m glad we came to this conclusion after your semantic bickering

I don’t think Gus gets the finer points of the o-umlaut in German.

Watching an online skysports feed. How is Gus doing?

A lot of meh. He seems a little uncertain at times but at least he hasn’t misidentified any players and seems to not be trying to overcompensate, which is shocking.

i dont care the he is 18. the hope bullshit is coming and he isn’t going to be that good imo
