And you can tell. he works his bollocks off and actually cares, every time he scores seems like he wants to jump into the stand and celebrate with the fans! Shame he cant play at Fulham, be interesting to see how he would do against those type of players
Also, his celebrations are pure joy. Not a sign of cockyness about them. Whilst I did like that edge of cockyness Simon Cox had I hope Austin keeps grounded and level headed
I don't know why anyone would praise Greer for his performance today as he was fucking shit. His distribution was terrible and he kept giving away free kicks, one of which led to their first goal. It was as if he'd forgotten how to win a header legally.
we've got to have a moan at something dont we. Greer wasnt at his best but fan from fucking shit
How shit was Scowcroft? Thing is he's probably still on a massive wage.
The English lower league needs a clear out of this sort of player. Just an absolute waste of money! Made me laugh the way he went down in the first half under a soft challenge and had the physio come all the way out to check him over, like he was somesort of fine tuned athlete that needs nurturing. You're a fucking pub player James!
And another thing. When Lukas managed to pull off that fantastic save when he was on the ground, it has to be said that all the Orient player needed to do was get some part of his body on it (other than his arms obviously!), but he just stood there, totally clueless. For me that sums up a lot of the players that the English youth system produces now. They know how to play ball to feet and pass it back to the defenders, but when it comes to showing some initiative and some hunger and just making something bloody happen - they havnt got a fucking clue! Compare that to the way Charlie Austin robbed that centre back. Brilliant.
To be honest, I thought the Orient player whoever it was actually did the head the ball. I've only seen it live but it looked like the Orient player got his head to it and Lucas using a jedi mind trick made the ball travell down into his hand. It all looked very un natural, of course the Orient playercould have just missed the ball
True, probably because he is out of contract this year I think..... meaning he will likely be shit if given a new deal, ala Zaaboub, McNamee etc.....
Its at the back of my mind to.
That's a bit unfair Gazza, he's been absolutely superb and I personally think it's a Wilson thing; i just can't see that level of improvement and workrate for a new contract.
....but I hope this really is the answer, in truth I suspect its a bit of the two.
Apparantly Jpm has now settled down off the pitch so maybe that has gave him the kick up the ass he needed.
His mrs gave birth a while back didnt she, well I say a while back within the last yearish? No idea if that his first child and thats had an effect on his lifestyle or maybe it was the dog food someone saw him buy?
