Listening to the commentators tonight just about sums up how we hype our players. Calling Zlat's first "lucky" and then desperately trying to defend Hart for his second. "He hit it really really hard." Oh really? I thought Joe was the best keeper in the world? Don't you remember that decent season he had last year? Surely he should save that. By the time of the fourth, they'd given up the bitterness and just realised that actually, they are know nothing imbeciles.
As for the fourth, again, showing up the media hype. Apparently Suarez's goal was world class against Newcastle. Never mind that it fell well for him, or the fact that he simply doesn't have a track record of "that type" of goal. No, it must be world class because it happened in the premier league!
The fact is, that fourth didnt surp[rise anyone who has followed Zlat's career. It's a world class goal because it didnt fall kindly, and he didnt fluke it. He meant it. And he's a world class player because he does that regularly. Any Tom Dick or Nigelito in the professional came COULD do it if you give them a dozen goes. True world class players do it regularly.
With any luck, tonight's game will show idiots like Martin Tyler and Clive Tyldsley, and Adrian Chiles and Alan Hansen what world class really means.
