He’s decent going forward but brain dead when it comes to defending.

He’s not alone though. Always baffles me how much professional footballers give away needless penalties.

There was contact but not enough to send Mane flying to the floor, stupid challenge though as you know any kind of contact on a player in a red shirt is always a pen.

If you played football to any decent standard you'd understand.
The urgency and intensity of the game and the defender trying to stop the attacker at all costs, sometimes it goes to their head, adrenaline pumping etc you don't always make the best decision at the right time.

Roy would give away 100 penalties a year in today's game.

Bit of an unfair comparison tbh. The game has moved on since Roy played, the rules are different. Better to compare vs Roy’s actions during his time.

See the video of Keane getting cause doing his own make up?

Yea I know Roy would adjust his game to suit today's , was exaggerating massively obviously. He wouldn't get away with any of the stuff he used to though.

Hahaha don’t think so but will look for it!

Walkers playing well at the moment for us, probably as well as he has since signing. Still prone to the odd brain fart though

Lack of respect Walker gets is mad. Started decade out as one of the best RBs in the league and finishes it as such. Titles, individual awards, he’s won it all domestically.

This Roy?
