again though all the videos are about Sons tears not the broken leg and possible wrecked career, like I said thats just the media for you, but fucking annoying.
If his tears were not genuine though he has a career as an actor after football. Its is possible to do a bad thing and then feel bad about it after. Previous Message
I may be recalling things wrong, but the way I saw it at the time, Son put in a clumsy challenge (didn't cause the injury), which put Gomes off balance, and then it was another Spurs player (can't remember who) who actually did the damage with the challenge that immediately followed, and THAT was what knackered Gomes's ankle / leg?
If that's correct, then I've never really understood the abuse that Son gets from Evertonians.
As I say, maybe I'm recalling it wrong? Previous Message
i thought it was cynical - for some reasonevery thinks he seems a lovely bloke. Previous Message
I think his reaction was genuine. What pissed me off was the media reaction, painting him as the victim, but that's the media for you. Previous Message
Getting an awful lot of air time.
Fantastic footballer.
Know football is a contact sport.
Players do get injured.
Am aware nobody is an angel.
But that tackle on Gomes ….
