Fucking love this pic!
He's one of their few players guaranteed to fall upwards. Spurs will replace sometimes good sometimes shit Lloris with Pickford and it will make no difference to their results
I think he was confused by Robbo's laughing and just didn't want to seem like he missed out on the joke. But he WAS the joke, much to his unending surprise.
There's so many reasons why that is funny. Especially the T-Rex thing. My younger brother who's a massive Toon fan (forgive him) stepped up in epic style a few months back and dressed up as a T-Rex at a Toon game. There's probably youtube clips of him dancing around the home end and taunting Pickford. Apparently he took it all in good grace. Funny. I love the pic. @darkstarexodus beat me to it as I was going to avatar it up. Wise man that @darkstarexodus 🙂

Nicked this and shared with friends. Brilliant.
The immediate increase in confidence was very apparent - like a massive weight had just been removed from his shoulders.
I think Beglin commented at the time that it looked like he was suddenly doing things instinctively rather than thinking about it.
His reputation was for “elite ball striking” - he’s tall and looks relatively strong physically, touch seems pretty good - I thought he was supposed to be pacy, but haven’t seen it yet.
If passing and control is his thing allied to potentially better finishing than Bobby - maybe a more physical, but slightly less skilful Bobby replacement could work.
Her certainly seems a sort of calm, chilled sort of guy, unlike the mad Chilean.
I like that he’s coming deep, helping the midfield and creating space for the other 2 - if they both and Jotta hit some form, a few teams are in for a right bumming.
He isn't slow, as I've been saying. He's just not a player who is on the last shoulder, he is that longer stride slower spin up, rather than being explosive, and we are comparing him with elite speed demons.
He's more technical and capable of keeping possession than Nunez and Salah, and I can really see the logic of him as a replacement for firmino. Whatever his preference, I don't get what the point of him is on the left wing.

When Diaz returns he has to make way on the left. I think we’ve been missing Diaz the most post WC.
He's deceptively fast it seems. It's his height and those long legs, he lopes along yet defenders aren't able to catch him. Watch him get away from defenders, once he spins or gains a yard they don't catch up. Not Nunez (fastest in the PL) fast but watch the clip Rurik posted of the break - he outpaced Mo over 50m! Maybe it's over the first 5m he's not as fast.
On a side note if anyone watched the MO interview they'd have seen him 'wowing' at Nunez's pace.
Rurik's post on the break :
Yeah I re-watched it - he certainly hit the afterburners there.
Mind you, I thought I saw Tarkowski outpace Mo at one point!!!
Someone called it
Yeah, when Mo was running at half speed to time his run.
At least he saw the funny side...literally. That try hard wool Conor Coady on the other hand
He’s fuming that his relegation clauses will kick in.
Why??? - he probs due a massive bonus from Wolves for a job well done.
Wolves need to give us that bonus for gifting them three points and spanking the shite.
Cody can return to Wolves a hero if he keeps Everton below them.
He was just trying to be seen to make amends for when he beautifully let the ball run to Cody earlier in the match to allow his beloved reds take a 2-0 lead.
