Does Angel Gomes fit the profile for Slot’s midfield?
08 Sep 2024 14:42:13
Don't see the hype. Not what we need imo.
08 Sep 2024 15:26:45
I’ve no idea I’ve never seen him play. I very much doubt he’s good enough though or he would’ve been mentioned in the transfer window as an option for one of the bigger clubs.
Lee Carsley has a very limited understanding of football so I wouldn’t listen to him. You can’t spend that amount of time at Everton if you know what you’re talking about.

"A very limited understanding of football". Bit of a sweeping statement that, BP.
08 Sep 2024 18:22:43
UEFA European Under-21 Championship winning manager has a very limited understanding of football. The stupidity levels from people on here is astonishing at times.
08 Sep 2024 20:00:07
I have limited understanding of Lee Carsely and Angel Gomes’ career so not willing to comment on either.
But always hopeful for guys to be the best version of themselves.

I guess sarcasm and humour goes straight over some people’s heads. People are too busy looking for a reason to disagree or be offended by something.
To clarify, my post was meant to be a joke criticising Everton rather than Lee Carsley. Carsley is quite obviously a football genius.

'People are too busy looking for a reason to disagree or be offended by something'
Very true, BP. Sad mate but true.
09 Sep 2024 00:43:48
The "football genius", was it a sarcasm too? I couldn't tell which is which haha.
09 Sep 2024 06:38:40
Sarcasm is mostly communicated via body language and tone, so it's not always clear when you read something someone typed. It's just how the human brain works.
09 Sep 2024 08:33:23
When you post on a public forum not everyone is going to agree with you or get your attempts at humour.
It would be sadder if they did.
09 Sep 2024 08:59:32
I completely agree Alvy.
The written word without body language or tone can be very easily misconstrued and is the cause of many unnecessary conflicts.
Face to face communication is fast becoming a thing of the past!
09 Sep 2024 09:25:40
So true. Everyone is offended by everything. Which offends me.
09 Sep 2024 09:51:47
Angel Gomes reminds me of Zidane in some ways.
09 Sep 2024 10:22:58
Willy.
That's my attempt at humour on a public forum - hopefully plenty of people agree with me!
09 Sep 2024 10:36:38
What way Red? Does he like head-butting Italians? If so we should steer clear as we don't want any trouble with Chiesa!
[Intended tone: Light hearted and jovial and not meant to upset anybody (who needs body language! ) ].
09 Sep 2024 11:16:32
No way Red Gomez is much better than Zidane. He’s more like Jay Spearing.
09 Sep 2024 11:31:50
I love a bit of sarcasm, Beckers, and I like to think I have a good sense of humour. On this occasion I missed your attempt at sarcasm, I'm afraid.
09 Sep 2024 13:01:31
Have to say I missed the humour on this one too.
09 Sep 2024 13:33:44
Angel doesn't fit the profile for Slot's midfield.
I've heard he once made a tackle and gave the ball away twice so that dog doesn't hunt for me.
09 Sep 2024 13:58:04
He's a tidy little player. United could do with someone like that to keep the ball ticking. A metronome like Billy Gilmour. Like Gilmour, physicality is a challenge.
Oh for a prime Thiago Alacantara right now.
09 Sep 2024 16:18:16
Like a metrognome, FPF?
09 Sep 2024 17:02:22
I thought I’d hidden the jibe at Everton under a very thin veil Rome and WDW. I thought most would see that but obviously I was wrong and for that I apologise profusely.
I just didn’t know that so many Liverpool fans felt so precious about Lee Carsley to be honest. If I’d known I would’ve chosen my words much more carefully.
09 Sep 2024 17:02:36
well am offended that you're offended by people being offended Liverpoolfc8. How dare you?!
09 Sep 2024 18:52:49
Great thread ??.
09 Sep 2024 19:21:05
Beckers, there's no need to apologise at all, mate. It's just confusion and misunderstanding of the written word. I have no loyalty towards Carsley, though I respect his record as an U21 coach. You haven't insulted me or a loved one. It's all just fluff at the end of the day.
09 Sep 2024 22:33:10
I saw what you did there Rigsby.
A lovely touch thst.
09 Sep 2024 23:53:09
See now “I apologise profusely “ made me laugh out loud @BP.
Keep going mate - say what you want to say in whatever way you want to say it.
This is a footy forum and, when all’s said and done, it’s a game and, whilst we all get worked up from time to time there is actually very little that is actually really offensive ever written.
