Best Individual Performance Against Us

[BroughtonFox]

Jack Butland when we played Birmingham away one season is up there. I remember coming out of that game thinking he’s going to be a world class goalkeeper as he was still only a teenager.

Not sure if it’s totally a performance but I remember Peter Whittingham being pretty wonderful in that play off semi at our place. 

The one where he moved the ball 5 yards forward for the free kick when the refs back was turned?

I didn’t remember that. Just remember him banging it in and their end going potty.

Michail Antonio pretty much every time he plays against us

Griezmann was all over against us in the home tie against Atletico.

Sometimes you need to see a player live to appreciate how good they truly are and he was amazing.

To add onto this their CB in that game were crazy. Seemed to get in the way of everything. I may be wrong but I think Godin was one of them who was crazy good that day.

Foxes 2 Brum 6. Kenny Burns hat trick. Played on Filbert Street ice rink. Mid 1970s. It looked like he’d score every time he got near our penalty area.

Gimenez played DM and was superb. Savic and Godin at CB

Trent against us too, Kane and Son have both had a fair few annoyingly good performances against us.

Yes Trent in the 4-0 at our place but the whole Liverpool side were incredible that evening

Kane in that 1-6

horrendous evening for us but he was so cool taking his opportunities 

 

No one else will prob think this but pogba seemed to only have his good games for United against us and especially at our place. He seemed to enjoy the challenge up against wilf (when wilf was good)

Yep, Godin, brilliant defender.

I try to block out great performances against us but I was at the FA Cup match at Fulham in 1974 when Alan Mullery scored a beauty.

3rd round FA cup Alan Young for Oldham hat trick 2 weeks later Jock Wallace bought him. Says it all really.

 

Oh and fvck was it cold that night and driving snow.

This and Diego Godin for me

Erling Haaland's 5 goals against us (29/10/22).

A few big names mentioned so I’ll go a bit out of the bubble here…

 

Nile Ranger for Newcastle on his debut in the Championship

 

Jimmy Kebe for Reading in a 2-1 (I think) loss for us at home after we had been linked with him all summer

 

Nick Pope for Burnley at Turf Moor in a must win for us to have any chance of Europe, he single handedly won them that match

 

Sean Scannell for Huddersfield in an FA Cup replay at our place 

 

That villa keeper in both the semi finals 😷
