I agree, but when I saw the clip, my feeling was that Leo let the guy vent his frustration. Not saying it was right, but I thought Leo stood there, all alone, his cowardly so-called team-mates nowhere to bee seen, and took it as a champ. I think (and hope) that he knows it wasn't really at him specifically, he was just taking it on behalf of the team. As they all should have done after a game like that.

I think you are massively overestimating Bazunu's ability to block shots... even if he is standing right in front of them 😄

I don't see that at all. Personally, I would rather have players that have a little fight and temper in them, but all I see are shrinking fucking cunts...

Given up on Baz in goal, and let's just chuck him up front?

Got a good sauce or just feeling a little peckish perhaps?

Well, we are not picking up points anymore, are we? The gap up is increasing, but the gap down is slowly creeping up on us...

Totally agree with this, bar the Ankerson focus. The whole of SR (personell and ethos) needs to be purged from the club. I might be in a minority on Ankersen (allthough he is so easy to dislike), because I think it is the whole of SR that is the problem, not just one man, and I don't think it will be enough to simply get him out- Even if he left all of Sport Republic. For me, if Dragan was to stay on as owner, he would have to ditch the whole SR concept. Seems unlikely.

Or 5 😉

Surely, if you are considering a big sign, you need to start going again? Sitting at home with a big sign is just weird 😉

Or the pies.

Agreed - but with this clown in goal, every fuck up results in a goal if it ends with a shot on target

Second shot on target and they score again...

Oh, come on! The goalkeeper position is not one to mess around with and pick someone with experience and a safe set of hands! Just like striker and head coach, these are positions where we need to avoid any sort of experience, track-record and common sense! -SR

My favorite Delgado moment was the Strachan interview where he was more concerned about the yoghurt in his frigde that was about to expire, than Delgado's injury problems... That is a pretty good contribution in my book! 😄

There is to sides to this. If the medical team is concerned about a potential injury, then fair enough, but if it is to keep players fresh, then it should only be the managers decision if they play or not. Sadly, in our case we only have a head coach, so not really sure what he is allowed to do...

A goal off the arse is still a goal 😉

But they won't hire football people, will they? Someone on the first interview saying, "I want to do things old school, I value experience and tired and tested methods, and no tippy tappy at the back". He wold be out the door 5 min into the interview. They will only hire someone who will have the same ideas they have

This. Love how this hungry eyed boy wonder has worked out how poor we have been with both of them out of the side, that he now only risks playing one at the time… Forgetting that we need threats in multiple positions to not be so predictable and easy to play against.

I agree, and I would have hoped for an experienced GK, but this is SR we are talking about, so I guess I have to be content with the fact that they have identified this position as one that needs strengthening…

Love how you conveniently left out the following under playing style and strengths: Strong shot-stopping: Fundamentally sound, quick reflexes, performed well in limited Bayern outings (e.g., solid in Pokal and UCL cameos). Commanding presence: Brave in the box, good mentality under pressure. Athletic: Decent height and agility for 1v1s and crosses. Proven at lower levels: Excellent record at Maccabi (44 clean sheets in 101 games) and Israel NT.

He is head coach, so he is in charge of the other coaches, and training, the rest is by commitee.

Seeing as Baz kept a clean sheet and made a save today, we have probably cancelled this last minute...
