Like I said, I’m not overly concerned with what happened in this game – but losing a long unbeaten record, and a long running record of scoring at OT does chafe a bit (last brain image – promise). Still, not going to dwell on it.
Two things to ponder:
My friend Rob remarked, as we were watching the game, “Why does Giggsy play in the most important position, if he’s “too old” for the wing?”
David (the silent Bifurcated partner) sent me a message this morning: “I’m shocked by how far Wazza has fallen. He’s content to spray balls around, not take on players & for the odd 6 yard side-footed finish. Boo”.
David has a point. Wayne has hardly been terrible, but he looks short of desire this season. Doesn’t seem up for it, and his reaction to scoring last weekend almost looked like embarrassment.
