There's an American guy who turns up most weeks who seems to think he's one of the 'senior' players, shouts a lot of nonsense at people and usually falls out with someone at least every other game. He's pish as well, no first touch whatsoever and does this weird stamping thing when he closes someone down which makes it really easy to just glide past him.
You ever get a player who does something genuinely great one minute and then looks like he's never seen a football in his life the next? One of our regulars is just like that, last Sunday saw him score a really good header and then miss an open goal from two yards out in the space of a minute. The most inconsistent player I've ever seen in my life and it's not week to week but minute to minute.
The guy who runs with the ball no matter what - a guy from Morocco dribbles no matter where he is on the pitch and he's not especially good at it, I've bagged a few goals just robbing him in his own box. Others will try to beat a man when simple passes are on.
The selfish cunt - never tracks back and shoots when an easy pass is on. Last week we were closing out a game and there was only one goal in it, they broke away with two players and one guy elected to shoot from a silly angle when his teammate had ran the full length of the pitch to support him after two hours in ridiculous humidity.
Who's scoring headers at fives ffs cunts swinging it into the box and that.
We've got a good work fives at the minute, most boys playing either juniors or decent level ammies which makes it pretty competitive. One guy's a keeper though which is a nightmare if you're on his side as you don't get a breather and invariably end up on the losing side.
