It's amazing how many people call our Left back Marcus.

Isn't that's because he is. It's like the difference between David and David.

George Djorkaeff
James Okocha
Peter Frandsen
Steve Giannakopoulos
John Elmander

then realised he's actually been called it by a few stadium announcers

Richard Gardner.

Lethal as soon as they sense a chance of winning the ball in their half or any mistake, or on the counter.

Direct running, good exploitation of space and isolated defenders of which there were plenty.

Eeee i'nt it nice to see Lee at the sideline bringing this lot through. Jimmy Phillips too somewhere

Exactly WTW. Pace, skill, care free. feck the structure, just get on the ball and look after it. Great stuff.

They toook the p**s, although their goalie was not up to much. I have to say it was not a perfect performance thought as it is never good to concede 4 goals.
The above post is complete bollox/garbage/nonsense, please point this out to me at any and every occasion possible.

So, you were expecting them to beat Spurs 8-0 away then?
