I actually thought, and you get to see this in fine detail in the One Night in Turin movie, Mattheus consoling Chris Waddle immediately after his penalty miss in that semi final. It was one of the most heart warming and classy moments of selflessness I've ever seen, to the point where on a human level, it brings a tear to your eye.
I agree, what a player he was.

Its difficult to warm to players that play in teams you never liked, Ronaldo for Portugal for example, I dont care how good he is, he makes me want to boot the TV.
I always had a bit of a hero worship for Claudio Caniggia, even though he played for an abhorrent Argentina side. He looked and played like a genuine Rockstar.
Might have been a different story in Italia 90 had he not got himself suspended for the final for what was deemed a deliberate handball in extra time against Italy (where he'd already scored the equalizer with a deft header)
Barry Davies commentary in the Round of 16 where Maradona dribbled passed a couple of Brazilian players before half stretching/ half collapsing but managing to thread a beautiful though pass to Caniggia who rounded Taffarel and put the ball away to knock out the Brazillians, has always stuck with me.
And Caniggiaaaaaaaaaa...........scores!
Totally undeserved but totally Argentina in that World Cup.
Claudio still looks like an 80s Rockstar to this day.

Your defence is on an uneven footing when the goalkeeper behind them is dodgy and QPR currently have three dodgy keepers who cant be trusted.
I've seen plenty down the years and Walsh is one. |

I never want to see Walsh in goal for QPR again. Lame duck mate.
Edwards didnt cover himself.in glory either, a double Cruyff turn in his own panalty area was moronic. |

Went to see them at the Ali Pally literally days before lockdown in 2020.
Didnt realise they had gone from a three to a four piece band.
I should Coco came out when I was in Sixth Form, have some great memories attached to that album. Wern't they like teenagers still when that hit? Crazily good album, still their best in my opinion. |

The odds are so piss poor I cant imagine the return is worth the risk?
QPR are 8/1.
Teams to tend to.bottle it in such circumstances. Maybe Ipswich will think its in the bag and just need to turn up. |

Think we need to calm down a bit here. Yes a shit way to lose and it was thrown away and gift wrapped for Derby. Makes zero difference to QPR though right?
Trying to feel some players back in, maybe too early for Burrell, but Chair and Madson clearly need games because they are well off the pace understandably given the time out for the former.
We obviously win that if there was something to play for but where we are means we can afford to experiment and make multple changes and give players a chance play. |
