Notts Forest 1-1 Wolves: Verdict Thread

[Johnny75]

It literally isn't. Bug bear of mine

You're wrong.

Edit: Forgot TT was a pedant. As you were.

 

[Wolftone]

We move the ball too slow, it's two-touch all the time because of lack of movement in midfield. Nothing is created through the middle of the pitch. I'm hoping the lack of Neves might encourage Lopetegui to play Nunes through the middle of midfield and at least give another
option to Podence/Adama as an out-ball. Wouldn't hold my breath though.
He'll probably go with Lemina and Moutinho. Yawn.
*Neves not nerves. F***ing Auto correct

 

[Banjo]

I assume he's referring to the use of "literally".

(that's literally a photo of a horseshoe)

 

[Tony Towner]

For it literally to be a horseshoe it would have to be the steel thing which goes on a horse's hoof

 

[Wolftone]

Our tactics are more horseshit than horseshoe.

Fair one and apologies. It's early and passion was flowing through my veins while I was smashing my keyboard up posting that.

(the overall point still stands )

Pedant.

Did we change the definition of 'literally'?

Literally every modern dictionary includes this definition

www.merriam-webster.com

It's literally OK to use literally to mean figuratively.

So you want us to go wide to Adama/ Podence more but have called our tactics horseshit?

I'm not entirely sure you've got an understanding of what football tactics are or you're not being serious.

 

[Paul]

Can we agree on figuratively then?

 

[Sniffer]

Yes its a horseshoe.

 

[Wilf Wolf]

If you accept the use of the term horseshoe when discussing football tactics as opposed to equine footwear it is literally a horseshoe. Perhaps not as well formed as the horseshoe shaped by Lage but nevertheless it’s a horseshoe.

It annoys me that people don't know the difference between 'their' and 'there'. It also annoys me that people post line ups week in week out with 'Lamina' in it, rather than 'Lemina'. But I haven't said anything because it seems a little bit dictatorial to do so on an internet forum.

It's literally fair game now, though

 

[Paul]

Do you mean there or they're?

I’ve been right there with you on “Lamina”.

And after “Lemons” got veto’d!

That's literally a squiggle of a 'C'.

If we're doing pedants corner, "of" for "have" is one that annoys me easily.

I've seen it on a gravestone.
