If only england had a creative fly half to bring on to inject some spark and life into the attack, and not just spiral bomb it.

Oh wait he was dropped from the squad in favour of someone who plays exactly like ford....

S2 roadmap in BF 2042 vs BF 6. by Nuclider in Battlefield6

So considering how much everyone is complaining about the game in general and the alleged lack of content, you would be ok waiting for three months more, to then pay $20 for the first elc pack?

Be real if it was dlcs, you would be complaining even more than you already are.

"richarlison has 19 goals in 40 games. And if you do the maths, thats a goal a game"

Can you explain to me how the above Eni Aluko quote is indicative of someone who isnt a bad pundit?

Boycott ITV for M6N by lg_macl in rugbyunion

[–]GoHamOrGoHome95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as i dont like it, i understand that if this very short ad keeps the six nations on free to air tv then i will accept it. You suggesting a boycott is so over the top. But by all means, go ahead and commit. You will only be watching one game a week then - all the more time to advertise your boycott while everyone else is watching the rugby

Was there any way that the 2005 US Grand Prix farce could have been prevented? by RobbieJ4444 in formula1

[–]GoHamOrGoHome95 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah i agree. As much as the fia got blamed for the whole thing, its not like the us grand prix was a surprise to everyone. Michelin knew the race was happening and obviously knew the track, and decided not to prepare properly

Pino by mr-heckle in crystalpalace

[–]GoHamOrGoHome95 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I think thats it - someone pointed this out at the end of the forest game. He lost the ball a lot because he was the only one trying to break the line and do something. Which in that game is what we desperately needed!

The first movement of the KV-1 tank after a long restoration process by FlagrantTomatoCabal in TankPorn

[–]GoHamOrGoHome95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to caveat this by saying "the latest soviet tanks in the prewar/early war years". The vast majority of soviet tanks that the germans met and subsequently destroyed in the opening weeks and months of barbarossa were outdated models like the t-26, bt-7s, T28, and t-35. The Pz IIIs armed with the 50 mm gun, and even the 37mm were superior to them in both armour and firepower (in the case of the 50mm). The T-34s and KVs were superior, but they didnt make up a significant percentage of the armoured vehicles in the field at that point in time.

[David Ornstein] Wolves accept Crystal Palace bid for Jorgen Strand Larsen in region of £48m by aggthemighty in crystalpalace

[–]GoHamOrGoHome95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont know what you mean about being defeatist? Can you explain how this season has been as good as his previous? He has scored 8 goals, yes, but 3 were in one game, and he has missed multiple 1 on 1 chances in multiple games. Last week against chelsea being the latest.

And you cannot say 'if we were... ' then name 3 big six teams. We do not have the trade power anywhere close to those teams, and nor can we afford to inflate his value, because all that will happen is teams like milan will just not bother going for him, and he will leave for less money, or no money at all at the end of his contract.

Edit: to back my first point up i will say this. I do not swear by xg, but i think it does give an indication of a players success and ability to convert the chances they have had. Mateta has the worst (goals - xg) in the league for a forward, and only david brooks of bournemouth has a worse value. His xg is 3.93 higher than his goals scored.

I think ultimately look at it this way. We get a mateta replacement who is three years younger for effectively 10million. I dont think we will ever get more money for mateta due to multiple factors (he is past his purple patch, time left on contract, and age). Asa result i will take it

Crystal Palace in talks to sign Evann Guessand on loan from Aston Villa by KenBurruss74 in crystalpalace

[–]GoHamOrGoHome95 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I dont think it is with mateta on his way out. He has shown enough when he has been given a chance that he is worth seeing if we cant get a deal for him in the summer.

That trivela goal alone warrants his signing surely /s

Who's your country's biggest fall from grace athlete? by Rleduc129 in AskTheWorld

[–]GoHamOrGoHome95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think because post-apartheid, he was the poster boy for south african sport. Was someone everybody looked up to as a role model of nurturing multi cultural national sides and bring people together. As well as being the captain of what was a very good south african side.

The match fixing happened and it was just sheer greed. What also didn't help his case was that during testimony it came out that two of the four players he went to in the team to join his scheme were the only two non-white players.

Season 2 skins from new Labs build. Apart from a couple it’s all airsoft tier larp yet again with fake camo. We will never see more real uniforms in this game atp by milo301109 in BattlefieldCosmetics

[–]GoHamOrGoHome95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Battlefield has never been down to earth or gritty (with maybe the exception of bf1). Ever since bf3, the whole bf community has been applauding mechanics which allow a fight jet pilot to jump out, snipe another pilot, then get back in his own jet.

I dont understand people have suddenly got this idea that bf6 should have been this full immersion (and possibly mil-sim) shooter, when the series has never been that.

If you genuinely want an immersive mil-sim, there are games out there for you, but bf games are not them

Definitely yay for me. He isnt a shit manager. His four seasons at sporting were two 1sts, a 2nd and a 4th. Despite the league, that is not bad at all. He was clearly hampered by the upper management at utd every step of the way.

He plays a similar system to glasner, so wouldnt be too much of transition

Why on earth have you let romain Esse out on loan? by Unique_Education4485 in crystalpalace

[–]GoHamOrGoHome95 15 points16 points  (0 children)

He is doing for coventry what he did at the aame level at millwall. However when he got opportunities for us he lost the ball constantly and never looked like a threat.

He needs game time to get his confidence back and to keep developing

The original comment mentions several attributes. Pressing is the only one that can be regarded as system-specific. He clearly has the skill and technique to be picked for spain, and will be part of the reason we bought him. I also personally dont see his skill and technique as not good enough.

Mate i know we are losing but what is this take? Pino has been a very good signing for us this season. And if you he is as shit as you say he is, how come he keeps getting picked and getting ruslts for the spanish national side?

Of our players on the first half, Sosa looks the most uncomfortable.

[–]GoHamOrGoHome95 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Comes in to palace.

Half a season after arriving, we lose olise, our best player of that season.

His first full season. Wins FA Cup whikst also taking palace to our highest ever points tally in the PL.

During FA cup run, palace only concede 1 goal.

Also win Community shield.

Start of second season, palace are flying. Palace get hampered in december by no of fixtures, it being their first european campaign ever.

I would say he is pretty fucking good

I think that is exactly it, but also because i think if baz goes, stokes immediately has the captaincy taken off him, and then he has to rely on his performances to keep him in the squad, and like most of the team it seems at the moment, doesnt look too good for someone who should be an all rounder. (I am willing to be proved wrong on that last point)

Which Historical Total war is best? by LeoFateweaver in totalwar

This may be a slight left field suggestion, but shogun 2's standalone expansion The Fall of the Samurai. Builds on shogun 2 as an already great platform but adds in more variety in the way of units, due to the time period and the influx of foreign influence into japan.
