The pedant contagion?

The contagion is spreading.

Strictly speaking, there is no contagion. Pedantry is a mindset, not an infectious disease. Furthermore, is grammatical correctness pedantry?

Didn't I start that one in the Wijnaldum thread?

Is French football a good test for fullbacks though?





Just getting it out of the way before someone else does.

Is he any good? Looks a shortarse.

 

[cloggypop]

He's a bit like Moreno.

French football is going to be Plat du Jour every time you enter a thread from now on.

 

[Oliver Twist]

He's a bit like Moreno.

Well, that doesn't sound promising.

He looks like Carlton

 

[cloggypop]

Well, that doesn't sound promising.

He's actually quite a bit like him. Strengths include his attacking play and his pace, weaknesses include the massive space behind him often exploited by the opposition. His crossing is better though and I think he's actually slightly younger despite being around for years.

 

[doctor_mac]

He's called Jetro which is another positive for me.

 

[keniget]

He's better on the ball than Moreno though, so I suppose he'd be an upgrade when we're attacking.

You're living in the past...

Look we are going to pay 10 million for Ben chilwell who hasn't played in premiership or for national team so actually 6 million is a steal for them.

Does he have two feet?
Then he is better than Moreno.

We are?

 

[Dreambeliever]

Moreno will hopefully back up whom we buy

We can only hope.

Start of the season is closing in

I'm hoping this was a nice intentional bit of ironic pedantry that has sadly gone missed.

 

[binomial]

Please please sign Jetro Willems.

Although i dislike the weasley prick he reminds me a lot like Evra.

 

[Hyena]

Didn't I start that one in the Wijnaldum thread?

Yes. I think it was @LeTallecWiz who doesn't like him..

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Yes. I think it was @LeTallecWiz who doesn't like him..

I used to like him when he broke onto the scene - but he hasn't really progressed.

 

[cloggypop]

He's only 22.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

He's only 22.

Yah - but he's been around for what, 5-6 years?

 

[the count]

Are all these rumours emanating from his tweet to Wijnaldum congratulating him on his move to Liverpool and saying "see you soon"?

 

[cloggypop]

There's absolutely nothing about it over here. So probably, yes.

 

[cloggypop]

Yah - but he's been around for what, 5-6 years?

Yeah.
