Gomez joins the list of Crouch, Hargreaves, Ashley Cole, Alan Thompson and Gary Neville in being booed in relatively recent times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRISTOL86 Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 Why the @Up The City! ? You think it’s right that Gomez was booed for having been assaulted?

RedRock Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 Who’d have thought that a team without Henderson could play fast-tempo, fluid, expansive, attacking football? Anyhows, got a decent core developing...... Pickford, Maguire, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Sterling, Kane, Rashford. The question is which other five players do you use to provide balance with some midfield and defensive solidity? Also in need of someone who is going orchestrate play to best utilise those attacking gems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieH Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 I was at the game and was really surprised when he got booed. from where I was sat surrounded by fans from London/ Birmingham area it certainly did not come from our part of the ground . Felt really sorry for him first half performance from England was superb, but Montenegro were terrible at the back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was an inevitable consequence of Sterling being dropped in public. Victims gravitate to victims and the aggrieved and offended will side with those they perceive to have been wronged. Humans take sides even when wrong. It is normal psychology. The England Manager should have understood what his public actions would do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tempo Winks played at was excellent, regardless of the opposition. However I think Maguire is limited, especially against players with good movement. Pickford I hope will calm down a bit, but is agile and decent playing out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madness to say we could play with such an attacking midfield against anyone good. Even Montenegro played some decent football around them in the middle of the pitch. Amazing how many say they don’t rate Henderson when he’s playing in arguably one of the best teams in world football right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you expect you can attempt to manage. Expected? You think it’s expected behaviour to be booed for having been assaulted by a colleague? In what possible way is that expected? You seem very keen to lay the blame for the whole situation anywhere but at the actual cause. The fact that 99.9% of people find the reaction utterly moronic suggests that it’s anything but the expected reaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
And Its Smith Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 From memory the players booed over the years are John Barnes David Beckham Sol Campbell Ashley Cole Raheem Sterling Joe Gomez Anyone got any more?
