It'd be nice to log onto SC and not be greeted by reports and complaints about people acting like total dickheads to each other and ruining the place for grown ups.

Bah, fuck this. I'll deal with it in the morning.

And? People aren't allowed change their minds? If you are going through posts like this I think you need a hobby
Yeah but they've changed their mind based on a new yt compilation, after declaring the player not good enough based on what exactly?

If you come out with very strong views one way or another at least have the conviction to stand by it.

A few posters came out instantly writing him off, when it was blatantly obvious it was based on very little.

Have concerns about his injuries? Yes, absolutely, but to call a player useless or nowhere near good enough be prepared to be called out for it. Just as you would be if you proclaimed a player as the second coming of Maradona and he wasn't.

These same posters defend themselves by saying"are we not allowed to have an opinion" and "well if we all just agree might as well shut the forum down." It's the same in all walks of life I'm afraid, have an opinion by all means but if you lean strongly to the left or right of that then prepare for others to shout back.

This is exactly it.
I completely changed my mind about Richarlson, from not wanting to see that diving prick in our shirt, to actually appreciating his personality and what he would bring to our squad.
I happily admitted that in his thread because I'd basically made a rash judgement based on superficial information.

There's a massive difference between having concerns about certain aspects of a players game, to spouting hyperbolic shite like "ffs, he's shit".

We're all allowed to change our opinion, that's kinda what this forum is about but let's not rigidly stand on a certain hill and proclaim that everyone else is wrong.

People going a bit ott (me included), I saw the manager comments, I saw the disciplinary record, the injury history (wtf is going on at Roma!) And a few reports and I was like, 50m? With all those red flags? What is this ridiculous signing?

I don't care how good he is, too much shit....

Then I watched him....

It's like your mate telling you about a girl and he tells you she's a cheating bitch, she's gets around, probably has an std or two... Not even that good looking he says, and you think why would I?

Then you see her and all is forgotten, you take her out to a ridiculously expensive restaurant and you drop your pants when the time is right because she is an absolutely stunning 10...

And you just know she can be Kane, son and Kuvuleski rolled into one player.

So you take her to meet your parents, you marry her, and you know she can break her ACL again, but you don't care, you just can't resist.

Or something like that

James who?

Changed my mind, looks outstanding. Sign him up....

He's like another kuvuleski, if deki had sons pace and kanes playmaking ability.

Looks absolutely class from that video. Quick, skillful, very strong, can pick a pass and score as well.

Along with Bissouma, I could see him breaking through the opponents lines and getting us up the pitch quickly.

Phew, it's been lit. Don't want him. With the furor he's created before even signing, his signature will split the club.

the right time and place being in the restaurant bogs after the prawn cocktail?

His mum looks like she might
