Sucks to be a keeper eh?
What makes me wanna heave more than Green's 'I can't believe it's not butter' coated fingers is
pundits on the radio and TV after the game; these guys are supposed to be 'experts'.
If they are, then football has some of the dumbest experts that's ever been known to stand on two feet and describe themselves as homosapiens [obviously Arsenal supporters are a subclass of that species
].
It's truly embarrassing just how unsophisticated and irrational our expert analysis has become....... and yet, football, believe it or not, is actually quite similar to paintball.
They both have a tactical/technical ratio aspect to their games that is similar in terms of magnitude.
I don't care which expert you listen to, the drivel that comes out of his mouth when analysing any particular game is mind-numbing ... but hey, it gives people something to listen to on TalkSport I suppose.
It is the nature of experts everywhere in sport to ponder the mysteries of the unknown, and to an extent, the tactical side of any game is always gonna be less well known than the technical.
The tactical is more akin to art than it is to science and thus, easier to explore with bullsh!t as the underpinning rationale rather than logic.
If you need proof of this, and I mean real, undeniable, in-yer-face, bone-crushingly obvious proof, then just listen to Graham Taylor ... and this turnip head was actually an England manager at one time ... says it all I think.
The whole notion of a sophisticated football expert is just another case of the Emperor's New Clothes ..... we've all been duped. ...... and the irony is?
I still fackin listen to TalkSport every day
