Frosty Jack

A thread about the kind of ballers we love. Signings who were expected to feature regularly but were confined to cameos, or were completely invisible, rotting in the reserves at their peaks, yet now elevated here to perverse cult status. Rules: Permanent crocks don’t count, they have to have been available but ignored. Provide video evidence, proof of life where possible. No current players (!). I’ll lay down the marker: Erik Meijer.

Use the small ship Liverpool bought for bringing supporters over from Ireland.

When he finally got up he thought he was ok but had a huge red mark on his forehead, and was complaining he couldn’t hear in one ear. Diaz was pleading with him to go off. The bodily collision looked worse initially. Sanchez got stretchered off but didn’t look that bad.

Alisson looks f***ed after collision with Sanchez. Head injury and took a knee to the back too. Concussion. Coming off.

Should be pulled from the US entirely. Spread the games between Mexico, Canada and Cuba.

$6.1bn warchest!

Meijer dominating the presser as if he was going to be main man. ”I’m not a foreigner, I’m a footballer…”

Unfortunately there is always some c*** prepared to pay for these hospitality packages, as I myself discovered last Tuesday, to my chagrin.

Reads like ChatGPT did.

I miss the days of Steve Morgan trying to buy us, sending a brickie in a pickup round with a cheque for a cool £10 million.

Is there a premiership club support that are known to be happy with their owners? I’m not even sure City and Newcastle fans aren’t disgruntled.

Yeah I doubt it’s the reason but crossed my mind. I just hope we get to see more of him over the run in.

I did idly muse on whether a possible reason behind his continuing lack of opportunities is contractual (appearance based) or more far fetched - that it is Slot ensuring that FSG can’t argue that they already have Salah’s replacement if he leaves. It would be perverse, a Rafa-like game to play, and none of us know if Slot even has that side to him. And then, even that wouldn’t explain the sheer obstinance of bringing an unfit Gakpo on against PSG when we needed a goal.

A couple of bad results and the whole bald thing is back with a vengeance.

I had a suspicion that the issue with Chiesa is that he speaks better English than Slot. A full head of hair too. It must be quite intimidating for the Dutchman, and it is somewhat understandable that he would want to sideline and sabotage this handsome young pretender after once calling him promising.

Jota retained to be used as ballast.

c****

Would be eerie if he did know.

That VAR offside check after Chiesa’s goal was absurd. Killed our momentum.

Conspiracy theorist!

He’s just s*** because he’s s***. There’s nothing more to it than that.

Yeah maybe he’s just a thick c*** who can only speak one language or something.
