Yeah, Lampard was the designated penalty taker for Chelsea at the time.
I hear Lampard appealed to the FA to have him take it.
Wasnât it Craig Johnstone, a Liverpool player, who rushed to get a toe to Ian Rushâs shot as it rolled across an unguarded line in an FA Cup final in the 80âs? Then carried on like a pork chopâŚon his ownâŚwhile all his teammates went to Rush.
But Liverpool players would never stoop to levels like that.
He actually touched the ball though, so therefore he is entitled to celebrate. Kane didnât. Quality player but clearly a very selfish one. To actually go down the appeals path to take a goal off his teammate says it all. Class actâŚ
A selfish striker?
Perish the thoughtđ
Iâm surprised Harry is going down this path but he is hardly on his lonesome if he has a selfish streak to him.
A truckload of top flight footballers (strikers) would definitely lean on being a little selfish.
To be honest when he plays and I watch them weekly I canât remember him blazing away at goals instead of passing the ball to a team mate in a better position.
He is good at setting guys up in better positions.
Probably has had a few pot shots from long range at times but no more than anyone else.
The immediacy of Kaneâs reaction convinced me that he felt it touch some part of his body. I suspect it was just his hair.
Its the foible of being a top striker, you take the good with the bad, the banging in goals with a hell of an ego.
because if you donât have that ego youâd never walk out on the pitch.
Chelsea just rattled off 3 in 10 mins!
WOLVES PROMOTED!
Canât wait to hang out in this thread
Thanks to Fosun and Mendes and hoping for big things this time around. A few EPL clubs are already worried about the relationship but itâs been great for us to date!
Congratulations but whoâs left to post in EFL thread now lol.
Some Ipswich supporter LOL⌠(Sorry bugman I think)
HAP - Boro?
Can we seen the toons back?
Hope not
DDG, I donât watch other any other top leagues besides EPL. Surely he would be in the discussion for best GK in Europe
Was only a formality but would would have been nice to atleast not give them the title by losing to the bottom side at OT
Up the toon we have been on fire since january
Pretty insipid performance at home but all too familiar unfortunately.
Rafa has done an unbelievable job with Newcastle. I think net spend was ÂŁ19 Million in the summer, so to get a newly promoted team to safety with such little expenditure on the squad is a great achievement. They are well organised and defend well, which are the hallmark of a Benitez team.
