A Horse Named Stranger Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Pretty sure somebody else also refered to him by that moniker before. But fine, if it makes you happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soylent Brown Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 It's something from his West Ham days. Perhaps a player's physical condition is fair game as far as criticism goes, but it would be difficult to argue the same for a manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sunland Lord Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 He was once guest (Lampard) on Sky (I think) with the pundits. He was telling a story about his time at West Ham and said they once told him "Sit down and be quiet, fat boy!" Or something like that. Probably that's where it's from. For what it's worth.

The club wanted to extend his contract but a report in The Athletic says that Benitez decided to leave because the project didn't turn out to be what he expected when he signed due to the financial consequences of the pandemic as well rule changes that made it more difficult for Dalian to compete for the best Chinese players and the salary cap which took foreign imports off the table.

polishgenius Posted January 23, 2021 Author Share Posted January 23, 2021 Aston Villa are really fun to watch. Swag king Bertrand Traore's been great for them since he won a first team spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soylent Brown Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Not especially hopeful of getting anything today. Klopp picks our two most out-of-form forwards, and adds an out-of-position Jones to the mix, rather than picking one of our other actual forwards.

Soylent Brown Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Piss poor from both Firmino and Wijnaldum in the lead up to the United goal. You get the feeling both of them would rather concede possession than take a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soylent Brown Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Not a good half from us. Firmino and Salah, apart from the great play for the goal, have been shit, and Milner and Jones have offered nothing useful either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
