Gavin Cooney already knows the style of football this fella is going to play.

Gav Cooney is the personification of the modern day nerdy soccer reporter type. I’d doubt he even played the game after U14’s as I just can’t imagine he’d get changed for a match in an old lorry/container.

As an aside, I laughed when I heard Richie Sadlier dissecting Cole Palmer’s thought processes as he approached the first penalty in the shootout in the Euro quarters against Switzerland.
It was a mixture of Bressie bullshit with a conviction he knew what he was talking about from experience, which we all know he doesn’t come within an ass’s roar of.

That’s my point. I’d say he’s too thick to feel nerves.
Paul Breitner used to say something similar about Gerd Muller. Muller by all accounts was not intellectually minded.
