Probably very good timing for this. Reset and go again.
Not sure about Onana from Everton....is that what we need?
Not sure what warm weather training will do,
Ben White tanned more than ever. and they will all be freezing cold when they get back :-( I still am and been back a while

Which just goes to show you; whilst almost all footballers can play football; very few footballers can score over 300 goals.
Telling Dennis Bergkamp that he didn't score enough goals is like telling Led Zeppelin they didn't have enough hit singles.

They never got a number 1 in the charts though. (only abroad)

Yes, it's rationalising, making a virtue of not being able to get your hands on a decent centre-forward.

I'd also remind you that it takes longer to do things quickly.

Well they didnt release singles. They didn't want to. That was for other bands.
Dennis was the same. Others can score goals. If he focuses on scoring them himself, who is going to create them? Surely he needs to leave something for the others to do :-)

Oh, no. He scored plenty. I meant, he would've scored even more had he been a worse player.
Anyway, I've always been a Maiden-man. Hit singles are overrated.

It isn't as if there are undiscovered Ted Drakes knocking about here and there. Easier to turn a footballer into a centre forward than the other way around :-)

Indeed. Iron Maiden had to get a lot worse before finally getting a number one :-)
