luckydug Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 I thin the biggest bone of contention is why no VAR. Just because Swansea are a Championship club. If the fixture had been played at Manchester there would have been VAR. Not only have they been discriminated against they have been shafted into the bargain.

Gets an incredibly hard time for the slightest of things. A cheat? Maybe. I’d call him a “modern day” footballer. It’s part of the game as we’re always told. If you feel contact, go down.

It was only after playing for Watford Youth against Spurs that they they decided to give him another chance. Even then he was not considered all that good and didn't stand out. He was neither big nor quick and played in midfield. However, it was noted he had a constant desire to improve different parts of his game and they stayed with him. Quite a story and hopefully inspirational to any young kid who gets rejected Edited March 17, 2019 by maroonsgotop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
