From David White :
Ray Parlour against Valencia.
What a goal – but you really know how to twist the knife, Myles.
The kind of goal we’re not likely to see from this sorry bunch of possession footballers.
As for the Chelsea vs Spurs game, sure maybe Spurs lost the plot at the end and picked up a record number of yellow cards.
But, they cared Myles, at least they gave a s*** and went for it unreservedly.
No handbrake on there!
Remember, Patrick Vieira is joint top for the number of red cards in Europe.
What would we give to have just half of his commitment in the team now?
Myles says:
Occupational hazard, David.
It’s very fast in midfield, with players flying past you on both sides.
AND IT’S A CONTACT SPORT.
You will get yellow cards, occasionally a straight red.
But Pat wasn’t a dirty player.
When I was a kid at Manchester University I met my hero Denis Law and interviewed him for the fortnightly student newspaper.
Denis said,”If the ball’s there, you’re going to get it.”
