on how pleased the boss was to see Eddie get off the mark today: Delighted for him because he’s a role model. He’s a player that was so disappointed with the absence of Gabby [Jesus], and not to play a final. What he did when he came on the field in the final, was that he changed the game, that’s number one. And the second one, the way he trained this week, he was telling me: “gaffer, if I don’t play, you are blind.”. A lot of players come and say: “ah, why am I not playing?”, and you have to try and explain. Other players tell you the reasons why they deserve to play, this is exactly what Eddie does. This is exactly what he did and then he goes onto the pitch, and he performs as well. It’s a clear example and a very good example for everybody.
This is fucking wonderful
He has a fucking amazing mentality based on everything we’ve seen of him, and he’s a striker, and he’s from Hale End. How the fuck did we get him, and why do people want to bin him off lol. Tell me one striker with any less of an ego.
