Harmless enough but it's the tone of the text. They couldn't say Grealish is eager to get the game going. That would be on the edge of being positive.

It's a far cry from the usual rush to disassociate their favourites from decades of England failure. I'm thinking of years of shit-talk like "[after the opposition have scored]... and Wayne Rooney is hopping mad".

Take a listen to his mawkish defence of Liverpool fans on a guardian podcast. He claimed that although the French plod actually prepared for the Scouse invasion going off the Hillsborough investigation, they completely ignored the intelligence supplied by Merseyside police and authorities that the Liverpool fan base didn't have any hooligan support.

Yes, and what did Aguero achieve in his late 20's?

Should we not have signed him?

This conversation is becoming a little surreal.

The original post I replied to stated that Bellingham has a good 13 years left in him
I'm making the point that he will more than likely suffer with reoccurring injuries when he should be at his peak

or he might last 13 years, you can't say for sure, at best you are 50% right.

You are predicting an 18yo won't make it until 32yo because of injuries, ignoring how many players still play in their 30's.

It was an odd reply and the rest was even odder lol

Ffs!
I said that young players, who play lots of high level games early in their careers, generally suffer enormously with injuries when they get to their late 20's

Foden is an example of a manager holding a player back and nurturing him through his early development

Bellingham is an example of a youngster being over played and at a far greater risk of injuries due to this

"more than likely", "generally suffer enormously with injuries"

You're making generalisations without offering any proof bud. He may have issues, he may not. Every player is different.

What is the need for the FFS?

You quote my post and pull me for saying Bellingham has 13 years left in his career and then give Aguero a name check to back up your statement.

And you're for fuck saking me.

All on the premise you think he is being overplayed atm.

The fact is, you do not know if he will get more injuries or not, it is conjecture on your part.

Also, I am damned sure there are more examples of young players playing to an old age than the two you have given.

I'll add Messi, Ronaldo, Rooney, and Raul for starters.

I have zero problems with you, I just found it an odd thing to jump in with and even odder when you added Aguero to the mix.

I only suggested Bellingham would be a good buy as we could nail down a player's whole career, 130m for 13 years is nothing in football terms, I almost wish I hadn't bothered now.

Enjoy the rest of your day.

Guilty of being a bit of a lad, good looking multimillionaire and then to top it off became a record signing for the best team in the world.
Was only going to go one way unfortunately. Even sections of our fanbase have been sucked in.
All very sad.
