Kage has probably seen Didsy wearing a mask and observing social distancing rules so he’s taken against him.

 

[knowsnowt]

Let's get him!

Let's not address the factual points he makes...let's insult him and get him cancelled!

 

[Nosworthys Throw]

He was 4 yards out.

BUUUURN HIM

 

[Houston_Blade]

The most worrying thing here is that there's a facebook group called 'Blade2Blade'. Sounds like a shit 90's pop band.

 

[Scarebus]

Pretty tame for Gagey these days.

 

[Antonb]

well he has a point!

 

[Bladeinleeds]

Mcgoldrick is by far our top scorer this season.

we know he’s a below average finisher, but if you can’t see what else he brings to the side then you are watching a different game to me.

 

[S64 Blade]

Yeah he should have scored, but he's been by far our best forward this season and arguably our best player.

An odd thing to call out by Kevin Gage, but then logic doesn't seem to fit with the anti-vax crowd.

 

[Whiston Blade]

The more I read of Kevin's posts the more I hate myself for wasting my own time. Blade or not, the guy is a plonker for a variety of reasons.

 

[Vikkster]

Let's get him!

For clarity, which bit of what he said isn't correct ?

I think “below average” is extremely generous. His finishing has been abysmal throughout his career. Clearly he brings other qualities to the team but his finishing does cost us big time. We were on top when he missed that absolute sitter yesterday and who knows, had he scored we may well have gone on to win.

 

[Rodley]

For clarity, which bit of what he said isn't correct ?

I think ruling him out for next year. His game has never been based on pace. The only real bit of individual quality from an SUFC player was when Didzy mugged off their right back with an outrageous bit of skill.

 

[Revolution]

Didzy is a poor finisher, but he’s our best forward this season by a country mile.

Is Gage an anti vaxxer or something? I don’t follow him on social media.

I agree with Kevin Gage.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Remember seeing Ronaldo miss a sitter for Man U even closer to the goal,he put it over the bar at the Bramall Lane end.

All the top players miss em.

 

[Sheffsteel]

I thought there was a 10 minute spell in the Chelsea game that summed up McGoldrick as a player.

He misses a free header....an easy chance for any pro player....never mind someone who is supposed to be a forward.
We just need to accept that McGoldrick is terrible at finishing.

However 10 minutes later he perform a brilliant piece of skill to get past Azpilicueta on the bye line.

Strange game for McGoldrick this....thought he was outstanding....he‘s one of our few players with genuine PL quality.
However even though he was impressive he’ll be remembered for that shocking miss.

True...but McGoldrick does it fairly regularly...we’ve seen enough of him to realise he’s really poor at finishing.
However he deservedly sees plenty of match time because he has a brilliant first touch....great awareness and intelligence....his link play is brilliant.
He’s what I call “a nice player”, ”a proper footballer” and we always play better when he’s in the team.

Incidentally, whilst expected goals is not the be all and end all, understat records Didzy as more or less meeting that target this season.

Our "strikers", their goals, and their expected goals:

McGoldrick 6 goals, xg 5.63
Sharp 3 goals, xg 2.98
McBurnie 1 goal, xg 3.46
Burke 1 goal, xg 2.54
Brewster no goals, xg 1.69
Mousset no goals, xg 0.76

Sharp and Didzy are more or less where you'd expect. The others have underperformed, McBurnie for the 2nd season in a row.

As a team, understat has us 11 below expected goals, third worst. Brighton and Fulham are marginally worse.

On the other hand, the defence's expected goals conceded is 50.23, so they have done about as well (or as badly) as expected.

Hi Stegosaurus here

Gagey knows his stuff. Wouldnt be opposed to him getting a shot as manager. I reckon he'd do well. Sound footballing mind.

night before stay over at the Manor house Dronfield, shared rooms
pre game breakfast, Manor House, Dronfield, help yourself buffet
travel to BDTBL 6 to a car, write positive review about Manor House on Trip Advisor
Gagey manages from press box whilst commentating on RS, mention Villa, Manor House and Covid is a government ploy to control us
return to Manor House
evening meal, 10 to a table, no masks allowed (@Manor House)
Covid is a myth karaoke night

On a serious note, whilst the comments aren't totally incorrect, given the turmoil our club has been through over the last week, i think this type of comment from an ex-pro and someone with links to the club is badly timed
Last thing a fragile confidence needs is comments like this from a 'friend of the club'

 

[Swannyblade]

Yeah, let's chuck our best player on the scrapheap because he missed a chance. Even with his poor finishes and missed chances, Didzy has still managed to score and create more than any of our other players this year. There's still a place for him and he deserves more respect than that statement from Gage.

[Carlton Blade]

Ass Clown

 

[Roygbiv]

He's our top goalscorer and is almost certainly going to win our Player Of The Season. He might be right and he might not be as big of a threat next season but it would be absolutely insane to get rid of him.

 

[bartman]

I think ruling him out for next year. His game has never been based on pace. The only real bit of individual quality from an SUFC player was when Didzy mugged off their right back with an outrageous bit of skill.

I think he wont play much of a part next season. As for yesterday that piece of skill was superb but the rest of his game was poor for him especially in the first half.

I think for thee OP to say Gage is a 'tool' for his comments is a little harsh when he is giving an opinion and trying to say why
