That was the Week that Was (Jun 3-7 2024)

    wtwheader.jpg

Monday Jun 3:

 

I’ve seen a few people taking issue with something Bellingham said after the final about proving critics wrong and that people said he couldn’t do it blah blah blah. He seems like a bit of a tit to me and I’d have to question Trent’s taste in mates. First he was tight with Rashford and now Bellingham’s his body and they’re both knobheads. This “everyone doubted me” schtick is especially nauseating. At 16 he was in Birmingham’s first team and every top club in England wanted him. At 17 he joined Dortmund and Birmingham RETIRED HIS FUCKING SHIRT NUMBER!!!. At 19 he signed for Real Madrid for ONE HUNDRED MILLION EUROS. 

 

Who are these people telling him he wasn’t going to amount to anything, and how old was he when it happened? Twelve? Nope, because Darren Bent was on the radio the other day saying how one of his mates was coaching at Birmingham and was telling him about this 12 year old kid who was going to be a superstar. Just shut up you dickhead and enjoy your success. Soft cunt has probably been watching the Last Dance and thinks he’s Michael Jordan.

 

Still no interview with Slot, which I find a bit odd, especially as he isn’t on holiday. He’s still on Merseyside, moving into Jurgen’s old house apparently. I did get told last week his unveiling press conference wasn’t going to be until the start of pre-season, but I’d have thought that the club website would have wanted to get something out. Maybe they’re all on holiday and there’s no-one there to do it? In this age of content and the clamour to get stuff on social media, it’s really surprising the club haven’t been all over this. 

 

We’re being linked with some French kid who is being chased by all the top clubs. Madrid have apparently told him to sit tight until they’re ready, so we can forget about that one. No disrespect to Slot, but it’s not like he can just ring them up and wow them the way Klopp could. That’s not a criticism, it’s just a reality of post-Klopp life. There’s no-one else like him and this is one of many areas where we’ll miss him. And even he probably wouldn’t be able to talk someone out of signing for Madrid.

Yep I apologised to Wolves fans for our owners shithousery and they can very much shove "we told you so" down our throats. We saw how the managers "supported VAR" when we got screwed then moaned like fuck when they get done.

Reckon they will all hold it in for a couple of weeks of new season but by week 4 it will all be kicking off...

"Fowler had some things to say about Darwin’s finishing and it’s similar to what both myself and Michael Owen have been saying too. It’s easy for great finishers like us to say how easy it is and what Darwin needs to do, but ultimately he has to realise and do it himself. This is good from Fowler though."

 

Out of interest, Dave, where would you place yourself in that list of great finishers? Above Darwin and Owen, and just behind Fowler?

Third out of four, quite a bit behind Fowler and just below Owen. Hopefully by the end of next season Darwin will have overtaken me. He certainly has the raw talent to do it so fingers crossed.

“It’s already getting close to that anyway with VAR and what City are doing, but imagine they decide to play Liverpool v Man United in New York!  We can sit here now and say “that will never happen” but did anyone think 10 years ago that we’d be sat inside the stadium waiting to know if we can celebrate a goal while some cunt in a room on the other side of the country examines replays for 5 minutes? No, but it happened.“

 

I’d say 15-20 years.
 

First they have to move a game that wouldn’t be well attended - Bournemouth v Burnley for example - to say see it isn’t a lot better with new fans, how great was it to see the excitement. Then they’ve got to try and move one of our smaller games - say, away to Brighton - which will generate a bit of anger but that will go away. After that, it’s a home game against an already relegated team and then it’d be time to try for the big prize. That process should take around 15 years, probably a bit more with protest.

Yeah I agree with all of that. It'll start with the little clubs, morph to big v little and then before you know it we're playing Arsenal and United in L.A. or Miami.

At least it wouldn’t kick off at 12.30.
