We are constantly hearing of how the narci sistic footballers of today have no end of confidence, pride, show-off-ne s and almost everything apart from dignity; not so Tottenhams Heurelho Gomes. After what has become a textbook mistake for the dexterously-questionable Steve Pearce Jersey goalkeeper, he has openly said that it wont be his last. While saying this might not be the most inspirational piece of punditry it does strike a contrast to the rest of football. In a Blank Jersey game dominated by The Ones and the Me siahs I think Gomess admittance is many things. Firstly, its undeniably correct (as anyone whos watched a recent game of football involving Spurs can vouch for), its also very brave to stick his head above the ego-filled trenches and onto the parapet of likeability. However, the most telling, and Xander Bogaerts Jersey important, is the affect it will have on the opposition. While for the Brazilian it may give him some closure and a sense of self-forgivene s, he has effectively painted himself right at the centre of Drogba, Rooney and even Ronaldos pin-point accurate dartboard. It may help him, it may console his fans with the thought that hes actually quite a decent bloke, but by saying anything with a hint of self-derogatory he has Babe Ruth Jersey effectively sprinkled mint sauce on a helple s sheep, and the wolves are licking their lips. With Tottenhams difficult, wolf-packed (excuse the pun) run-in, they may mi s out on another European adventure Brandon Workman Jersey , but at least Gomes will have time to give his stinging hands a break. He may even take up darts. |
