in a land where outrageously talented players are born every 70 years, its a pity England didn't make the most out of Gascoigne because he really was a generational talent, and its going to be a really long time before another English player is that talented
@juanaltredo2974 Жыл бұрын
@Jack David Im not apologising for him, it was entirely his fault, but it is a pity because who knows when is going to be born in England another Gascoigne level of talent? perhaps never. England is not like Argentina or brazil, or even Portugal or Italy or spain, where you get great players every 20, 30 years, in England the talent is not there, so when occasionally it appears you gotta take advantage because it'll probably never come again
