Steve Gerrard should not be in a TV studio.
Didn't realise he had a reaction in him except for saying "Unbelievable Jeff".That Bournemouth v Everton game. And Chris Kamara's reaction when Bournemouth's 98th minute equaliser went in.
3rd season in a row that an English striker has been amazing and we're still stuck with Rooney.Imagine if Hodgson picks Rooney over Vardy having watched that.
There's the whole racist tirade thing too. It's been swept under the carpet completely.The only things I don't like about Jamie Vardy are:
1. We were linked with him in 2013 when a decent striker would have at least got us in the top six of league one but it never came off
2. He's stolen Jason Koumas's song
NB in sure we stole it from someone else for Koumas but that's hardly the point is it?
I think Vardy relies on his physicality a bit too much. I think he'll revert. Mahrez on the other hand looks like he just is that good.He's growing on me. I like his style, more South American like than European, and his wrist cast is kind of iconic.
Still racist, though I must admit I've kind of lol'd at the number of Liverpool fans I've seen pointing that out. Didn't see it so much with Suarez.
Thinking about it, racist strikers seem to be doing well, maybe that's what holds Giroud back from getting to the next level.
