@IanDarke That highest scorer in the World Cup history should NOT count because that's a cumulative achievement over 8 years or so .. that would still have been true even if he only scored 2 with a previous 19 goals cumulatively Only performance during the last year should coun 964 views · 27 likes · 1 reposts · 4 replies Open on X →

@IanDarke A meaningless 3rd place game padded his stats. His goals in a knockout tournament shouldn’t hold much weight, especially as France didn’t make the final. 725 views · 33 likes · 1 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

As much as Harry Kane would deserve to win the Ballon D’Or , Kylian Mbappe’s case is pretty strong too having won the Golden Boot and become the highest scorer in World Cup history. 46.8K views · 590 likes · 45 reposts · 116 replies Open on X →

Chance for Chelsea to make a statement today. But it was Arsenal who did. Gunners still the team to beat on that evidence. Alonso has Chelsea going the right way now. 12.1K views · 142 likes · 0 reposts · 11 replies Open on X →

On a day of a beautifully observed minute of silence for the much-loved Alan Knight , fitting that Pompey defended tenaciously for a clean sheet and win against a decent Cardiff team. An outstanding display from Brentford loanee Benji Arthur in central defence. 14.4K views · 271 likes · 6 reposts · 6 replies Open on X →

@IanDarke In chasing the under-25s who won’t come back to TV sport as we know it, everyone else is left totally alienated. And it’s the “everyone else” who pays the licence fees. 1.7K views · 16 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

@IanDarke @Deano230 Although BBC needs to cut costs, I can’t understand why they appointed a Director of Sport who has never worked in radio or TV production afaik and doesn’t look beyond online content Ian. Big mistake to alienate the existing audience in the hope of attracting 7.7K views · 21 likes · 4 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

@IanDarke Except you can only make 3 stoppages still despite being able to make 5 subs. So your argument is flawed. Games are fragmented due to unpunished heavy fouling because PL officiating is garbage. And more subs protect the health of the players which is much needed given 7.8K views · 177 likes · 4 reposts · 6 replies Open on X →

@IanDarke It feels like they are just abandoning all sport completely whilst running news articles about how kids are on screens and not active. 7.2K views · 20 likes · 1 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

@IanDarke It was brought in because of the sheer volume of games you lot in the media want the players to play and the pace of the game again the media want. Can’t have it both ways 🤦‍♂️ 26.6K views · 566 likes · 3 reposts · 12 replies Open on X →

@IanDarke I think you have to have 5 subs with the amount players are expected to play at the pace they do though, these days. 15.6K views · 235 likes · 0 reposts · 6 replies Open on X →

In my admittedly old school view , 5 subs is one of the worst changes made in football. Flown in under cover of Covid. Allows managers to change half the team. No wonder second halves of games are so fragmented. 3 subs was just fine. 411.9K views · 4K likes · 169 reposts · 390 replies Open on X →
