Great bloke. Would've gone on to do great things without his knee injury. A legitimate world-class player at his peak, so consistent, so much energy. Club loses another greatly admired player.
-
I'm not sure what people expected to be honest, he produced what he always has done through his career. Scored two big goals against Southampton & Ipswich away in the Premier League. Languid, slow, sure. That's what he does, you can't teach an old dog new tricks, so why expect what he isn't capable of? Recruiting him made sense for trying to stay in The Prem if we had other capable strikers who could consistently provide goals and pace but we didn't, we then go into this season yet again failing in recruitment and have people expecting 20 goals from Ayew and 20 assists from Bobby de Cordova-Reid... never gonna happen. Abit of a scapegoat, misunderstood player. Relief another big wage is gone through and hopefully we sign appropriate players for next season and going forward.

White shorts please

That's the old Ricardo I miss, even at his best times he'd have a late tackle in him and would hurl abuse at the ref while taking a yellow
-
Well done Patson
-
He's a cheating diving little shit bag. The year after Atleti vs Leicester, at the World Cup Final in Moscow, Antwat Greasyman pulled off this trick to get the freekick France scored their first goal from. Same game, the ref then gave France a penalty fom a ball striking an arm after a deflected cross. Everything went for France in that tournament, but I was happy for Ngolo. I hope that is written in the stars, one day that we get our revenge on Atletico Madrid.

Lookman fires it straight at the keeper, point blank. You can't have an Atleti game without dodgy pens lads, we should know that too well by now.

Can see both sides on that peno. Defender comes steaming in, all he can see is Gyokeres's name & number - dumb. Meanwhile Gyokeres backs up into the guy and then does the classic feet up to glutes from standing position "oh no I've forgotten how to stand up" technique, and flails to the floor. Not pretty either way.

Nils Eric Johansson

Deflection off his thigh, again never a pen. Refs centre of attention again.
-
Taken from somewhere else. Engineered dive 100%, he stopped playing the ball and initiated the contact.
-
That's not a pen. Diaz moves his foot across into the defender more than anything else, basically kicks him
-
Armadillo completely forgetting how to stay onside there
-
Very strange from Tiago there. Thought he was supposed to be a big lethal striker, looked like he shat himself then.
-
Should be a home base for a nation or two during Euro 28!
-
We missed KDH so badly last season
-
Danso is a donkey
-
Oh no he's now actually properly hurt, looks like his knee. Certainly wasn't wishing for that!
-
Need a Xavi Simmons cam focused on him any time anything even slightly goes wrong. Looks distraught 99% of the time.
-
Screaming into the air before any contact, nonsense. Somehow he doesn't see Cooper on Fatawu. Clown refs still on duty.
-
Winks repeatedly giving the ball away now
-
Great player, great professional, decent bloke. Legs seem to have gone, not sure he's a proper leader. In his pomp he was genuinely world class. We just need to move on from all of this now and draw a line under it.
-
Relegation player, relegation manager. Not really his fault, problems before he was appointed. Gets a payday. Meh. Looking forward to his thread being bumped in November when some retrospective know it all is banging on about how we should've kept him for League 1, ala Ruud in recent weeks. Bin. Bin. Bin. New lows.
-
The amount of space in the cutback, just cascading free runners in acres of space repeatedly, it's insane.
-
Ricardo wading through water trying to track back there. Sad sight.
