There is nothing wrong with our midfield

Sorbet schmorbet. I want a frigging 99

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Wrong again - it's sorbet.

Well, that's what you say now. But here's what you said before.

 

Sorbet sucks.

I've got a mate called Bill who used to buy 99s. He used to eat the Flake and throw away the rest. When i pointed he could simply go to the shop and buy a Flake he didn't seem too impressed.

[Pureblood]

If i recall correctly his argument was that normal Flakes didn't taste the same.

TK I'm starting to imagine you with a New Zealand accent, don't do this to me brother.

[Pureblood]

Fush 'n' chups, mate.

[Pureblood]

Met an "action coach" at a networking lunch, he was a kiwi. "I'm an iction coach, mate. I have a military background". Brilliant.

The lack of emotion that some people are jibbing him about, is actually one of Gerrard's best attributes. He's learnt over the years to stop forcing it, to just play relaxed. Dr Steve Peters works on that, Bellamy went from screaming at everyone to quiet as a mouse at times, because it doesn't help his game, he recognised it and dealt with it. The anger isn't constructive, the negativity in your mind, whether it translates to fear of missing a penalty or misplacing a pass back to your keeper, it isn't constructive, it can actually cause you to choke in those moments.

 

There is a reason why Federer, Woods, Michael Jordan, Fedor Emelianenko and Messi etc are all emotionless in their respective fields and why they're so good, and have been so dominant in those fields. Obviously it's not the only reason but it is an important differential. The mid set of a champion, a great book actually is "The champions mind- how great athletes think".

 

If you read it you could draw a lot of similarities to Gerrard's mentality on the pitch and how he handles important moments like penalty's or going behind in a game.

I don't think I've seen a sportsman sob more often than Federer.

John Terry?

[aRdja]

John Terry?

Nah no way, Fed cried after losing the final to Nadal. He cries when he wins the grandslams too.

[bigmacbrownie]

I don't think there is any problem with our midfield.  We dominate possession in practically every game we play and seeing as the majority of possession in a game is played in the middle of the park I'd say we're doing just fine.

Damn, didn't know, should watch more tennis, I like watching grown men cry.

read this thread back a few pages then

[aRdja]

Or just mention Lucas..

[stringvest]

That subject is done. And this thread was nothing to do with him.

[TheHowieLama]

 

 

And Woods is one of the most volatile players on the tour.

[Coro]

Yeah, that's right Coro. Well done you.

 

That's incredible. You couldn't have been any more wrong.

[stringvest]

That's incredible. You couldn't have been any more wrong.

 

hope that makes you feel good.  

[Coro]

Not really.

[stringvest]

So I got it wrong about Hodgson.  I did.  I've done the sackcloth and ashes bit Coro.  But thanks for taking the time out to remind me and everyone else.  I think you should pop a reminder in your diary and come on here regularly to remind us all.  If it helps take that self esteem up just a notch, just do it, I don't mind. 

 

Not sure what this has got to do with our midfield though.  If this thread isn't about Lucas, it sure as fuck isn't about Hodgson.
