Most valuable player ?

Wtf

When did this American crap sneak into our game

 

[Smoggle]

It’s been creeping in for a good while… “offence” and “de-fence” is common in commentary and I see “off-season” frequently in writing, among others. Not sure why as footy has more than enough jargon of its own to need Americanisms.

Those gaudy rings for the champions will be next.

 

[dribble]

False 10, False 9 ,number 6 position , all nonsense.

 

[Smoggle]

“Quarterback role” was popular a few years ago to describe a deep midfielder who can make long passes forward, thankfully not heard it for a while now.

 

[atypical_boro]

False 10, False 9 ,number 6 position , all nonsense.

I don’t think these are necessarily Americanisms though?

 

[Jedi boro]

Yes false 9 is a tactical thing nothing todo with America.

But all this MVP guff when we already had player of the season or man of the match.

At Boro we should have a biggest BOS award probably named after its current holder Mr Assombalonga
