harry kewell yesterday

[Mike]

he was inconsolable at the end, crying his eyes out.

just wanted to be on his own - im guessing it's because he was injured and couldn't perform in another final?

perhaps elisha can shed some light on it when he gets back from alma de cuba...

[Sion]

He was terrible as well.

[Scally Bob]

I've always been right behind Harry but I just think that might have been his last appearance for us.

[Ombudsam]

He was terrible as well.

 

I thought just about everyone was awful yesterday cos we were crap. That gerrard was alright i spose

[Andy-oh-six]

He was gutted when he went off and crying as he walked down the tunnel. He'd suited up and looked equally dejected when he collected his medal. I feel for the guy.

[ricflairandy]

I dont know how bad his injury was, but it doesnt look good when you see him goin goff injured, yet cisse, gerrard , harewood all playing through the pain barrier at the end.

Yeah and that bottler Alonso, he couldnt get off the pitch quick enough either ..

totally pointless comparing the situations with other players at a time when all the substitutions had been made.

When all 3 subs had been used. Daft comparison.

 

Felt sorry for Kewell yesterday, especially after his semi final performance.

[Guest The Chunk]

No one even knows what was wrong with him and he couldn't get off quick enough.

 

He seemed alright at the end when he almost jumped onto the podium.

Players can still go off if you have no subs and they deem there injury bad enough

[Cobs]

they had cramp, ffs.

He was injured and couldn't carry on, where's the contention?

And Alonso, I take it you feel the same about him?

[Cobs]

he possibly could have carried on BUT he was injured and we had a full quota of 3 fit substitutes to bring on at that time, with at least 45 mins left to play (an hour and 15 as it turned out).

 

 

Can't believe people are this stupid.

[kendo]

Maybe he thinks the world cup is gone for him too

[Guest The Chunk]

And Alonso, I take it you feel the same about him?

 

Alonso stayed on till it was almost impossible for him to carry on. And he'd been out all week with his ankle problem.

 

Kewell just seemed to start limping, then next minute he was running over to take a corner, then he went off. All very bizarre.

[Moose]

Exactly, he played in all the previous rounds, put Gary Neville on his a*** against the mancs, played a blinder against Chelsea .. he deserves more than some petty sniping about something over which he had no control over.

 

Get over it.

Other players would have mind

 

Apart from Owen, obviously

[Lee W]

Apparently, Kewell strained/pulled the adductor muscle in his groin. Not sure whether it is the same one he has had recurring nightmare with.

 

Out for two weeks or so....

[Koogan]

All very bizarre.

 

Yep, bizarre to you for sure...

Just what is your agenda here? If you dont like him, stop arsing around and say so, because your arguments dont hold much water.

Before the second half kicked off Martin Tyler commented on Harry saying that at half time he'd limped down the tunnel and it was looking like he might be struggling. Not a surprise at all to me when he went off.

 

Felt sorry for him too, he's had a good season and his performance alone at Old Trafford in the semi was worth the entrance fee. I hope it wasn't his last game for us, he's a top class player.

Alright, calm down. Why is it virtually impossible to discuss certain players without getting jumped on by their number one fans?

 

No one is slating the lad if he's picked up a serious injury, but the whole incident was very strange.

Agenda?

 

If I don't like him? LMAO, what is this nonsense.

 

Paranoid or what...

Because you are wrong and what you are saying is strange.

 

The whole point is.... Rafa decides that at 50mins.... An uninjured player would contribute more than Kewell and so takes him off.

 

If Kewell was injured when all 3 subs were already made, I am sure he would have stayed and battled on. Just like Carra, Gerrard, Sissoko, Cisse....
