Most annoying football cliche?

[Pam]

Sick and tired of people saying about how playing shite and winning is the sign of a good team.
Is there a single football cliche of any description that is more annoying than this. Apart from Siberski being a good header of the ball.

No i think you've won with Sibierski, used to drive me mad.

Probably some of the shite the FIFA commentators come out with, played that game far too much.

"What a great time to score" - As if there is ever a bad time.

 

[There is a Light]

You make your own luck.

Blatantly not true.. see the Rags last 2 Champions League wins for evidence.

 

[ElanJo]

The worst one without doubt is "they(bad refereeing decisions) even themselves out by the end of the season"

How? Why? What unspoken rule or law of nature even hints at that being true?? Utter bollocks!

'Manchester City are one of the most hospitable clubs... They have every chance if they can use this money wisely.. It's not built on sand but on concrete and strong foundations... It could crumble like a pack of cards'
'Carlos Tevez with his bulldog-like approach'
'Robinho with his dribbling skills'
Haha nobheads

"we are a team that likes to play football" WTF!!

 

[Golden Slumbers]

Nice touch for a big man.

2 nil is a dangerous lead

 

[nhsuperstar]

When they say "if we would have converted that opportunity we,d have taken all 3 points"
How do you know. the whole dynamics of the game would have been totally different from that point on. ie restart at centre circle rather than a goal kick and so on.......

Rome wasn't built in a day.

Absolutely meaningless.

"It could not have been a penalty because he had lost control of the ball" crass remark on MOTD last week. A penalty can be awarded if the GK punches an opponent even if the ball is at the other end.

 

[Mr Partridge]

When they talk about strikers "being in the right place at the right time"

What...in the penalty area?!

 

[YankeeBlue]

Anything that has do with "asking questions"




Does my fucking head in.

"They were outfought and out-thought."

Don't think I've ever heard a pundit say one without immediately following it up with the other.

 

[Bollo]

“The big X clubs” where X is high enough to contain the rag’s and dipper’s current league position. Please one day let me read about the “big 20”.

 

[Mr Blue Moon]

Commentators saying “He’s just letting him know that he’s there” as a defender goes straight through the back of a City player

 

[Koniec]

To be fair

He couldn’t have come closer

Anything emitting from Keowns mouth.

 

[BlueMojito]

It's a game of two halves.
