Personally i believe he has the right to celebrate! He may not have played but he and many others like him push the regulars everyday in training! Like the janitor in nasa once said " i put men on the moon" and rightly so! by simply doing his job it assists others to achieve more

Imagine this: 19 yrs of age,told not good enough for 1st team contract. (No feedback sheets given based on perfomance stats only verbal opinion) only one place they can go is amateur football.We speak of Player pathway etc. It ends at 19yrs of age with no feedback/guidance.

I rarely see people applauding effort anymore. effort is a conscious decision.For one to decide to put the effort in is fantastic, they've decided to help the group (the bigger cause) rather than decide to conserve their energy and hope someone else does the work for them.

Van Dijk allows the pass inside rather than force him down the line, gomez similar, drops off and allows on his dominant foot. Commentator blames Adrian. That is a negative bias right there!! It has to beat 3 players before the gk appears in the picture !!

Coaches pay to educate themselves but then work for free.. Croatian FA has a fantastic model. All coaches are paid and to which they should be. Maybe then we can increase the overall standard rather than "just a volunteer"

I'd say all the coaches who constantly play " 2 touch games " would bench kovacic. In fact your sessions would kill a player of his ability. Same for grealish etc. Dribblers are amazing to have and very difficult to play against as you can always read patterns of play

I truly enjoy observing this style of play, distances, angles to receive, short passes, runners off the ball, gk embracing his technical ability whilst having young guns up top with good link up play but also full of energy and happy to run beyond defenders. Progress 😃
