What has he cut his hair off? Was he going a bit thin?

 

[City_Sean]

There's an awful lot of Bluemoon posters who seemingly suffer with amnesia.

Don't think he was at his best today BUT he needs pace infront of him. It was a little slow, Sane's introduction seemed to bring him to life.

 

[kaz7]

I can't pick him out from a distance anymore,grow it back dave

 

[Barcon]

His head.

He was far from his best, but the point I was making was posters were calling for him to be subbed at HT when it's obvious the man is a game changer who can conjure up a goal in the blink of an eye.
You don't pull him off after 45 minutes just because he's not worked his magic as yet against a packed defence.

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

His head.

Indeed! Clearly should have been a why!

Yep good thing is Pep knows what he is doing

Hair transplant.

I swear half the people of the match day thread are on drugs. Popped in around half time; fuck me I should have known better. A few trying to justify their transfer forum agendas plus general fuckwittery. I'm off to start a petition to ban Football Manager; it's worse than spice.

My idea was to bring off a CB for Sane and revert to a back four. We didn't need the three CBs because Brighton weren't really offering anything as an attacking threat. Just delighted we won!

thought I was watching Ireland again :(

 

[Vienna_70]

I had to laugh at the number of posters on the match thread who wanted either Silva or Aguero subbed at HT. Another assist for the list.

Does anyone know how many of Sergio's 170 have been scored from an assist by Merlin?

It must be the best part of 100, I would imagine.

Dave has 65 official assists in the Prem since he arrived in 2010, if we assume the same rate of assists for Cup and European comps he'll have another 25 or so. One of his unrecorded strengths is the so-called second assist - the pass that opens up the defence for a teammate to provide the assist - so there's a good chance he was involved in 100 or so of Aguero's goals in one category or the other.

Thanks, mate.

Very interesting.

I'd love for someone to make a video of all of the [Aguero goal, Silva assist]s

Not even close would be my guess.

 

[Pablo ZZZ Peroni]

well here is a link to Sergio's goals or at least the 1st 150 odd... maybe someone will count how often david is involved :)

 

[Chrisdunk]

Needs to be dropped I'm afraid. Enough is enough. Bernardo should be replacing him.

 

[TexasCityzen]

He wasn't quite right today. Either the haircut is bothering him, or he is actually concerned/threatened by the younger version of himself waiting in the wings....
