Ladapo v Rashford

I watched the Spurs v Utd game yesterday, other than the inital pass being on the opposite side of the pitch, the goal Rashford scored was a carbon copy of Freddies' at Southend.

Why is it the level of superlatives for anything outside of the Prem, are much lower, despite the events often being identical ? ;)

I agree with the general point you are making.

But comparing Rashford and Ladopo is like comparing a Ferrari 488 with a Skoda Octavia.

A Skoda Octavia does 95% of what a Ferarri 488 can do.

Its just not as fast, not as well balanced and doesn't have leather seats as standard !
However, like Freddie, the Skoda is probably a bit tougher and is much cheaper to run.

...and... the only option for most budgets....& quite capable of being gratefully loved & “just perfect the job” for most realistic owners.

My son-in-law has a mid range Volvo on his choice list as a works car....he chose instead an Octavia Estate....far more car for less money...I was surprised how good it is......not a bad thing then for Freddie to be compared with.

Given Ladapo’s goalscoring form is he the Ferrari?

It would also attract less speeding fines, I reckon

I had the same conversation with a friend (Liverpool fan) who 'can't watch lower league football because the standard is so shocking'. He said Rashford scored a cracking goal set up by a sublime pass from Pogba. I said eh, that's just a carbon copy of some striker you've never heard of doing it at a ground you'll never go to because it's a football standard you regard as terrible! It's a funny old game.

A Liverpool fan who praised Rashford's shot and Pogba's pass??

A real non plastic Liverpool fan?? ... from somewhere near Liverpool? Someone who has been there .. once?

No. I don't think so either!! ;)

Like the majority of Liverpool fans he has a non-scouse accent, lives over 200 miles away and can count the times he's seen them live on one hand.
