Can't stop watching Tommy Watson (ROCKETMAN)

Must have watched it on repeat at least 20 times this morning. I’ve never seen limbs like that for a long time. Maybe an old firm a few years back but nothing else I can think of.

Amazing moment. How you get the ball to curl like that is beyond me. It almost defied physics.

Practice mate ..its very difficult to hit a ball straight and on the deck over long distances with instep or inside of foot .the only person ive seen do that was Jordan Henderson(and he'l need a hip op by he's 50)...I dont think Tommy will score a goal of such beauty and such importence in the next 18 years of his career..He has literally peeked!But what a goal to have on your CV!
 
Absolutely magical day, no better feeling in the world, the best day ever as a Sunderland fan, brilliant. Never get sick of watching both goals. Superb

The transfer seems bizarre to me. Why was he so desperate to leave so soon?

Offered a great deal probably, football is a short career

Watching it on TV it looks to be going wide and nestles in the corner.


Money.

I know mate but Brighton aren't daft, they're not going to be throwing crazy money at a player who will likely not play. Yes he has a lot of potential but we could possibly match what he's being offered now, all he had to do was wait a few months longer to make the decision.

It'll have been Harte in his ear, as he was constantly with Jack Clarke. Perhaps the club were relieved to get rid of the Harte connection.

Did Brighton qualify for europe again?

Picking people out in the crowd during the build up, and their reaction after it goes in, goosebumps every single time

£££££££ seems bloody obvious
 
Considering he wasn't even mentioned in the match day programme or in its line ups our Brighton and Hove Albion player did extremely well.....Get in there Lad :cool:

You’re one injury away from obscurity, look at embleton, that injury has set him right back. Got to grasp your chance when it comes. Although there will no doubt be a part of him thinking what have I done.

Aye it is. Love Roberts reaction as well. I can’t stop watching it either. There’s a bloke in the home top and white bucket hat up from the top right of the goal who seems to be the first to realise it’s in.

Roberts was telling him to switch it left to, I assume, Cirkin trying to overlap. Best he's glad he didn't listen to him.

Agents Mate - No guarantees but would have nailed a significant increase in wages.
Different game in the Premiership and you are going to need some deep pockets just to start. Absurd the contracts and wages now.

When you think our complete wage bill is around £2 million it makes you realise the gaps now.
