I have just devianted. I voted a number for a player on the Arseblog player ratings

[Ganpati's Goonerz--AFC's Aboriginal Fertility Cult]

Kai.

Arseblog and all the voters had given him 8.

I don't care about the opposition, and I'll ignore it's his first start.

He scored a very good goal. Gorgeous pass for the first. Pretty much an assist for the third - I think it was going in without Gabby's touch, but semi-assist, pre-assist, whatever.

3 in 45 mins. HTF is that not a 9? Sorry. That's why I felt compelled to deviant.

PS, I know it's crap opposition, and it's a sample size of less than one {0.5 of a match to be precise} but Vik looked a different player with Kai. How much having Easy as a 2nd 10 mattered I dunno. Would it work as much with Zubi-Dec-Kai? Was it a one off?

But for the 45 mins with Kai, Vik looked like the player we hoped we'd signed.

And I include the putting it over from 3 yards in that. **** happens. On the stretch. Right place, right time, just bad luck.

Always loved Kai. Reminds me of Ozil in that Spitting Image "A fairly modest German" way. Both have/had almost Bergy levels of talent on occasion but both look unhappy and unappreciated.

But back to the point. Am I wrong? 3 goal creations in 45 mins only an 8? So glad he's back. Please don't break him, MA.

I doubt he will be considered ready for 90 minutes yet. But hopefully we'll see him involved in games from now on, and starting games in a week or two.

I wouldn't read too much into anything we saw last night in terms of formation. That was a pub team. And not a good one.

Oh, I know all that. It was more about the idiocy of player ratings causing me to deviant.

Goal and basically 2 assists in 45 mins - with no major errors, misses, badly misplaced passes etc - and it's only an 8?

But I like the idea of more Kai generally, and more Vik and Kai together.

Btw, that would be the pub team that were the only team in the CL groups stages to put 2 past us, and the only won not to lose by 2 or more to us?

They must have better boozers in Kairatistan than they do in Munich, Milan, Madrid etc.

Btw, didn't you manage a pub team? Is it jealousy?

I watched the game. They were ****ing useless

If we had needed a 7 goal win last night we would have got it. In the circumstances, I wouldn't read too much into the result.

And the score of 8...I would guess it was based on him only playing 45 minutes.

Then what would they have given him if he'd played the full 90 with a 2nd half like the first? 16 out of ten?

I'm just saying this player ratings thing is idiocy. But we all knew that anyway.

Did you manage a pub team? And did you ever play any friendlies against Kairatstani boozers?

Do Arseblog and his beta male sidekick still take in huge gulps of air every time they answer a controversial question btw ? Their style began to grate on me after a while; I had to stop listening.

It wasnt a pub team exactly. A team we started as a bunch of mates and I took over as manager in the second season.

And no, most of the pub sides we played were in Cheshunt. Nasty *******s. Racist as ****

Oh, I never listen to their podblog or whatever it is. I'm not a full deviant. It's just player ratings amuse me so I always have a gander.

I did listen to Alan Davis's thing back in the day. But vaguely witty verbal ad-libbing is his day job so he was ok at it.

So you have no actually experience of how good or bad the pub teams in Kairatistan are. QED.

It is an expression. Obviously they are not actually a pub side.

I do think they would struggle in League 2....

Erm, what do you think?

Is their most often used comment

'Sunday League' was my comment last night.

Interchangeable with pub side in my vocabulary.

As long as we all know what we mean

I've forgotten have we established if they have boozers in Kairatistan or not? Irrespective of whether their teams play on a Sunday.

PS - That Kiaratistani Sunday League pub team we played midweek were the only CL team to put 2 past us and not to lose by 2+ goals.

Not that bad for a pub side. God knows what that makes Leeds.

Oh, and our number 9 problem. Have our 3 strikers scored 4 goals between them in the last 2 games.
