Hats off to Joaquín of Real Betis still playing at the tender age of 41. 😅 I remember him in Champ Manager 01/02.
SM001 “Who’s this Wa-Keen guy you’re going on about? Oh, you mean Jo-A-Quin!” (circa 2000)
Having his name mispronounced for 20+ seasons and counting. Quite the achievement! Hats off to Jo-A-Quin.
Saw him at Bridge around the 1998 mark.
Joaquin that is.
ScottBailey Hope he doesn’t eat Keen Wah

Remember it well.
Being stared at in an utterly bemused manner in the pub because I pronounced his name vaguely correctly.
Antony is such a dislikable selfish prick - how does the bellend try to chip the keeper here rather than pass?!??!
hugopal It’s a bad split-second decision, made at speed.
Not sure it’s a window into his soul Hugo, unless you choose to paint it that way
hugopal can you imagine one of England’s players having a three man overlap against France in the rugby tomorrow and not passing 😂

It didn’t happen that quickly - in real time you could see that he saw the pass but then simply decided against it.

Exquisite analogy
Mad_Cyril there would be a lot of spilt claret in the dressing room 😂
hugopal he saw the pass but then simply decided against it.
Sounds like a decision to me
Mad_Cyril yes, an absurdly stupid and selfish one that basically goes against ‘Football 101’.
Are we all agreed that Antony is absolute dog shit.
Smallman1 yep
Who is worse, Richarlison or Antony?
Hursty it’s little wonder Brazil bottled the world cup when they have got so many flouncers in the squad. Neymar, Raphinha. The list goes on.
Strictly speaking and not as a Leeds fan I don’t think raphinia is in the same skill set as neymar or the same flouncibility as richarleson and Anthony. He’s a decent player who never failed to put a shift in at Leeds right up until his last game where he saved us from relegation knowing full well it was his last game for the club.
Cankles-McJeggings That doesn’t suit the hot takes in this thread Derm.
Lineker off MOTD, what a result!
gcw He should quit and go to one of the many competitors that would take him.
