Lucas Torreira: 2019/20 Performances

[Mark Tobias]

Theres a difference between life & sport / competition.

In sport its a weakness. What the **** are the opposition thinking looking over seeing the Arsenal DM crying on the sideline.

Actually according to reverse psychology that would be a perfect psychological tactic...
Similar to how Wales thought they could run all over our tiny springbok scrumhalf who has bossed his way to the RWC final. Laughing in the face of the giants who incorrectly thought they could topple him..

Not too familiar with Rugby but that little mofo looks to be the epitome of self confidence with no weakness.

He really is. I love him but I bet opposition players hate him. Typical 'kak stirrer' as we say here. 'Maak kak dan roep hy vir Eben om skoen te maak'

ANyway, not sure where yesterday leaves Torreira. Not as our CAM anymore I would imagine.

 

[UpTheGunnerz]

When Torreira cries, i cry. Could be love for his captain, could be a lot of things. Maybe Emerys tinkering is making him doubt his abilities as a footballer.

Anyway, the day is here ladies and gents.

Emery Out.

Try telling that to Stuart psycho Pearce following his penalty at euro 96

Loved that image. Was watching my second full rugby match (I understand nothing of the rules) and it delivered. This (little) guy looked like a proper bastard, but a great player. Shades of Sergio Ramos.

 

[Tosker]

He was upset to witness what our once classy club is turning into

I feel like shedding tears myself

We were classy a long time ago.

I saw that Eboue vid again today, pathetic from our fans. We were leading as well.

And I'll never forget the treatment Wenger got at that Stoke train station.

I was beginning to loathe Wenger in a way and that video made me take a serious look at my emotional reaction to this sport. I as shocked, hurt and felt completely uncomfortable with what happened there. True class from him to just take it on the chin. What a man.

Look at his hair though... The fact that he feels the need to wear a gimpish rubber hat with holes in it, in order to have highlights put in his hair, makes him a weak ***** with a tendency to ****, no? Many mixed messages coming across from that picture.

 

[Jury]

Did he even get permission from Torreira to make him look like a *****?

Didn’t think of that... **** me. I can’t imagine the player wanting that plastered all over the Internet, particularly the drivel underneath the image that’s also taking it for granted that he’s definitely crying and didn’t just have something in his eye!

Yeah looking at those pictures I don't see him crying and definitely doesn't look inconsolable lol..

 

[GDeep™]

Didn't look like he was crying. Club is a mess atm.

 

[Taylor Gang Gunners]

Terribly mismanaged. Need to see him at DM full time and soon. He’s still got adjusting to do. We shouldn’t forget he’s still young and will continue to develop.

It might have been wishful thinking but I used to really think we had one of the classiest fans in the country. Over the last few years that changed to me accepting we weren't more classy than the average fan base, then even wondering if we aren't relegation material in this matter.

Even this forum isn't immune from it. I used to frequent other teams forums, just to see their viewpoints. Currently in Redcafe there must be about 100 threads about Solskear, almost everyone wants him to be sacked. Yet there is a distinct lack of personal insults or silly name calling. You could argue that is because he is some kind of a club legend, but then again Wenger was a legend here and that didn't help him.

Similarly when Rodgers was struggling badly at Liverpool most wanted him out. Again most of the comments I saw were far more 'classy' than the comments here. The few who were using insulting or derogatory remarks were shouted down pretty quickly by the others.

United last won the league six years ago. We last won it fifteen years ago. There's the answer.

That could work both ways. United are used to winning, which usually makes you act like a spoilt brat. In theory they should have far less patience than we should. Also they arguably are the biggest club in the world in terms of fan base and on the commercial side too. Again it should be harder to accept mediocrity taking that into account.

 

[truth_hurts]

Has to start now. Him, Özil and one of Ceballos, Guendouzi or Willock.

 

[bojed]

I'm okay with him playing further up the field, his passing game is decent, but that would leave us pretty much exposed at the back.
