You believe it to be inexplicable. Except I don't. I think there could be lots of reasons, but for me the most likely of which is he's not calm enough in big situations. It's clear from many of the goals he doesn't lack technique in either heading or kicking a football. There's plenty of evidence to show he has both in abundance. Many people believe he fails when he has too much time to think, except much of his best execution is when he has plenty of time to think - see yesterday as an example of this. @dave uhas theorised he had the yips and after that it was mainly about luck. I don't know much about the yips, so I can't comment on that. I'm not a massive believer in luck is pure luck, I think there are often other things happening that mean there are minute things happening that stops perfect execution. 

 

 

However, he has also demonstrated he is highly emotional on many occasions, he certainly has more emotional.dispkays than just about anyone in the league. An inevitable consequence of lacking emotional control, is a failure to completely control his technique in those key moments. In exactly the same way a marksman would try to lower his heart rate before taking a shot, I think Darwin needs to be calmer. Combine this with the incredible speed he plays at, I think once he gains more control of his emotional state in key moments, he will change to Salah level scoring. He might never be able to do that, but we see most footballers gain more control once they hit their mid 20s anyway, so I think there's every chance Darwin will. 

He’s a mad bastard and I love him for it

He's clearly nuts

It's awesome to see how well things are going for him after the issues he's had. Really happy for him and I'm still struggling to believe that goal he just scored. That chip he did recently too after so many missed chances when he's been through against keepers was great, maybe he's finally settling in now.

I saw a comment from some Japanese fan ( I think ) so pressed the translate button and it said "he's like the magic man who steals the heart"

I liked the bit where Xherdan Shaqiri throws his legs up by his head and rolls through all those pirates.

I fucking love him. Bobbie got close to Torres levels of love that I’d promised never to have again. This lad though….. I can’t control it

It’s gone viral that interview loads of liverpool sites used it.

[Code]

Getting better, scored in as many PL games as he’s got booked in now, 8 out of 25 PL games he has played.

 

Scored a goal in his last three PL games now, may it long continue.

He’s nearly played as many games as you’ve had accounts on here

He’s gonna be raring to go next Sunday after his spat with baldy at the Ethihad. Would absolutely love nothing more for him celebrate right in front of that bald cunt’s face.

I'd much prefer a controversial winner 12 minutes into 4 minutes injury time and he just jumps right into the crowd. Guardiola will be his own entertainment at that point.
