The Emirates FA Cup 5th Round ** Spoilers ** [26th - 28th February 2024]

I actually think Mcsauce could end up being a better No9 then Rashford in a pinch. His movement in the box is really good actually.

No. 20 for Saints looks pretty good.

 

[Shamikebab]

We'd be ahead if McT hadn't missed a complete sitter though

An ancient statue would do a better job as well.

Chelsea looked bloody awful in that first half. So leggy which is understandable.

Used to like Shearer as a commentator but that comment about Rashford just then is an example of what I hate about modern commentary. Dull observations poorly spoken.
It's not even that I disagree with it, but blunt punditry like that has no place in the commentary box whilst the games going on. Lee Dixons the same. People say Neville is the worst but he's just overly passionate.

What did Shearer say about Rashford?

 

[scarps]

Beauty from the youngster, deflection actually but he set it up well

 

[C Kent]

Good goal by the youngster

 

[AStaley]

Nice goal from Koumas, then Gakpo fluffing the 2nd.

 

[mid_gen]

Really need Mainoo on to give us a bit of control in this game. I'd take Rashford off and leave McSauce on though.

 

[scarps]

Gakpo can be very underwhelming at times.

I know everyone is already aware, but how awful is Antony. It's so frustrating watching him because he's just so easy to defend against. The whole dragging the ball along with his left foot, poorly feinting as if he's going to go on the outside but everyone knows his next move is to knock the ball inside using the outside of his left boot.

 

[Mekrel]

Just heard on the United game some youngster has scored at Anfield on his debut. What a feeling that must be for him!

 

[Reuben klang]

Lol at Germaine Jenas trying to tell Rooney how to play number 9 football and Rooney's WTF you talking about face.

That reminded me when Benitez was trying to tell Ronaldo how to shoot and take free kicks.

 

[Reuben klang]

Leeds are level at the bridge.

Notts looking more and more dangerous against Utd here, hopefully get one soon.

They certainly arent going to recoup the 86m they spent for him

Mcsauce was actually a striker at youth level though. You can see his movement in the box is actually quite good. Especially if you have followed him through the season as ETH has implemented him more forward this season. It is also the reason why he always performs well for Scotland. His position is the same as Bruno Fernandes though in all reality so he will never get played to his real strengths.

What did Shearer say about Rashford?

Nothing that hasn't been said a million times over really. Essentially saying that he's lazy and needs to put some effort in for the team.

 

[Robbo]

We've looked far worse since the half time break...

 

[Calpol]

Casemiro has had an incredibly quiet game so far. I can't decide if thats good or not?

 

[ArcticHeron]

Fernandes is such a little weasel.
