Philogene at Millwall

[The Lone Gunman]

I've just watched the highlights of yesterday's game. Shambolic defending for both goals, and particularly the second. Niels Nkounkou looks decent going forward, but his defensive work is already a significant concern.

However, the most extraordinary sight during the highlights show was Jaden Philogene prancing around the Den in a pair of pink tights. I mean, seriously? What made him think it was a good idea to line up against anyone in pink tights, let alone Millwall?

I didn’t notice them but I did notice him losing possession continually - he had a very frustrating game.

😂😂. Who would have thought years ago a City side would be playing in all pink.

I presume he feels he has to wear compression tights and I think the colour has to match the shorts

I’m away so watched it on TV . I counted 5 times he gave the ball away in the first 5-10 minutes.

May well have been the first 5 times he had the ball too.

He improved after, but lMHO shouldn’t have started .

Re: Philogene at Millwall

I know I had a go at Ojo (and I’m still not convinced), BUT, this fella is off the scale !!!

How is he ever on a football pitch, everyone around me, in the stand, were screaming to get him off after 10 minutes.

Makes Ojo look like Pele

Please, please, don’t pick him again

Re: Philogene at Millwall

I have the same pink tights, its good he can bravely express himself in front of such bigots

Wingers are generally players that can get fans frustrated and Philogene fits into that category, but Ojo’s been more disappointing than him for me.

Similar here. Mine's pink too with a splash of apricot.

So proud am I of my limp wrist I'm debating whether to clamber up on the roof to display an LGBQT flag from the chimney.

Winger, winger you say, he couldn’t beat a f***ing egg

Re: Philogene at Millwall

If we pick a team with Philogene, Sawyers and Ojo we are beaten before we kick off

They are all the same and are extremely lightweight

We can just about get away with one of them in the team but all 3 is asking for trouble

Its like the Harry Enfield sketch of Charles Charley Charles playing for Arsenal in the 1920s with loads of pointless stepovers before losing the ball

Talking of which.......someone Tweeted that they wished that our fans were more like theirs (I think from a passion stand point) and someone else replied that after the abuse that Romeo received and them booing the knee, they couldn't think of a fanbase that they'd LESS want to be like.

Not entirely surprisingly, every Millwall respondent said that Romeo deserved what he got :shrug:

Re: Philogene at Millwall

Philogene and Sawyers were scandalously bad on saturday, granted no one really played well, but they were exceptionally poor. Sawyers for me is a complete luxury player and shouldn't be started until we find our feet.

I believe you were there too. Romeo gave a bit back especially second half and fair play to him. Including calling them a bunch of bankers at one stage.

I wanted him taken off though. Think the challenge that got him booked showed he had seen the red mist a bit and was a red card waiting to happen.

Agree with the lad above too when he says Philogene, Sawyers and Ojo in the same team is too many. At the minute too they are a luxury player who aren't really producing anything.

Re: Philogene at Millwall

"Send him back to Villa" seemed to be the general opinion by us. That being the more polite summary of his performance. Got to feel sorry for the lad. Just not up to it and gives the general impression of having the legs of a newborn, pissed-up, giraffe the view of which was exacerbated by being able to see his legs so easily in those tights. All gangly and looking like he'd tackle himself. Definately not N M-L in disguise.

We’d have two goals now if Sawyers wasn’t playing.
