There is that one player who is good, scores goals and is a vital cog in the team he plays for. Gets picked for his country and the media and other pundit have positive things to say about him and rightly so. But for some irrational reason, as this player has not done anything other than play football the correct way, even when he is playing against us, annoys the crap out of you just for being on the field of play. That player for me is James Maddison of Leicester City. Everything about him annoys me especially that s*** eating grin he always portrays. Is there any player that you feel the same about even though there is no rational reason to do so?

Solskjaer really boils my piss, but he’s a coach.

As for players, Daniel Sturridge used to really irritate me, but he’s not playing any more, so I guess I will choose Mason Mount, he’s a decent player, but the whole teachers pet thing with him and Gary Southgate is vomit inducing.

You won't be alone with Maddison. He's a smug wanker and annoys the shit out me too. Helps that he's posted anti Spurs tweets too.

For me its Firmino. Just his face makes my piss boil.

There's a face that younger siblings pull when they've done something wrong, but don't want to be punished. The eyebrows go up to show confusion. The eyes moisten in expectation of unwarranted sanction. The lips pout and quiver slightly.

And, all the time, it's a ploy.

They're guilty as sin.

They know they're in the wrong.

They're just trying all the tricks to get away with it, to push the blame elsewhere.

Anyway, there's one player who constantly does this when he's caught offside, or gives away a foul, and it does my fucking nut in. 'Man up' I cry. 'Yes, you were offside. Will you just stop with the face. Just. Stop. It. Now.'

So I thought I'd check out my theory on Wiki and sure enough...

I bloody knew it.

Gabriel Jesus. The epitome of the annoying little brother.

Juan Mata is one for me. He's by all accounts a model pro, as far as I know is a reasonably humble guy off the field, there's no specific reason to dislike him other than the clubs he happens to have played for, but for whatever reason I just always found him really annoying. Couldn't tell you why, he just has one of those faces I guess.

Easy; Mo Salah. He’s always there when facing us and Liverpool needs it the most. Incredible player and so good at what he does on the pitch. A golden boy who don’t get in to trouble - Mr. Clean

Dele Al.....oh maybe not.

In that case Mason Mount. He's probably a great kid but he always looks so fucking smug.

I know it's not the thread for it, but I asked my man utd mate who says he apparently talks to everyone and is quite sociable around Manchester with the fans, apparently a likeable guy in all respects....

Back on topic and staying with utd for me it's Anthony martial. Not only is he massively overrated, he just sulks at everything, like the world is there to annoy him. Entitled is the word that comes to mind, so glad we didn't spunk 80m on him.

Other players, Maddison is the obvious one, cantwell at Norwich.

Yeah like I say i realise it's an irrational thing.

Martial is a good shout. Hadn't thought of him but you're spot on

Cantwell for me too. Thinks he’s better than he is; and that smackworthy hairstyle
