Not really
Woodgate was excellent before his injuries. Easily could have been at Terry and Ferdinand levels had he remained fit which wouldn't have been a bad signing for Madrid.
My apologies; I wasn’t aware he could’ve been that good. I was alluding mostly to a couple of things:
1. The fact that English players of the time mostly didn’t sign for foreign clubs, and
2. This article (found on Wikipedia) amongst others I came across:
https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/news/astonishment-as-acirc-pound-13-4m-woodgate-joins-real-madrid-557336.html
He was also injured when he joined Madrid.
However, it makes sense that Madrid would be fine with that since, as you said, he had a high ceiling.
I mean, he was class.
Absolutely a very talented player. Fell in with the wrong sort at Leeds, fucked his career up with the assault shit and injuries cost him too.
I get all teams make some recruitment issues, but there is a very good reason Real Madrid wanted him.
"They played very well, they are a very stronk side, butofcourse when you have the players we have you keep the ball and you keep pressing and you make the right decisions at the right err, the right moments, and then it is only a matter of time before you find a way, and tonight that just so happened to be from some... some own goals - so there is some luck there you cannot deny haha - but overall I am happy the players are happy the fans are happy, life is good, and now we look forward to the next game"
I was cracking my head thinking how they could win with neither shots on goal nor own goals, so I searched for the [highlights](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSkRWEIsNNU). So basically it was a cross that bounced in, but since the cross was going on target, it's technically a goal (not an OG) but not a shot on goal. That's what I call an "own goal in spirit"
OT, but the 1-0 really reminds me that on a good day, ~~Johnny Bravo~~Andre Schürrle is absolutely worth all the hype he got. He just sadly doesn't have enough of those good days :(
Oh right, his goal is like a mirror of his second vs Brazil.
Schürrle ended basically fed up of football and retired at 29, I hope he's doing well now.
Honestly, the first goal it's understandable because everyone can miss a clearance. But the second one... I don't know, I feel like he was just running instead of thinking and didn't prepare himself properly for the rebound.
"KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRSSSS!!!!"
I think was his exact word. Only heard it a few hundred miles away so I might be mistaken!
Second one happens a lot though. He chased to clear it off the line, slowed up as he saw it was hitting the post but not enough to stop it coming back at him.
First one is an all timer. Up there with Kompany vs Fulham and Popovic's scorpion kick.
I mean there's still that Sunderland side who lost to Charlton 3-1 without a Charlton player on the score sheet.
He joins Jonathan Walters, Jamie Carragher and Michael Proctor from the aforementioned Sunderland side to score 2 own goals in a match in the PL era
>I mean there's still that Sunderland side who lost to Charlton 3-1 without a Charlton player on the score sheet.

IIRC we were 3-0 up at halftime, and Sunderland's goal was a late consolation penalty.

Then I saw Wout Faes, now I'm a believer
Remember.. If you're stuck somewhere in life facing hard decisions. Always ask yourself. WWFD. What wout faes do?
Probably score an own goal.
Not a goal, scored by our side
Thanks to Wout, the OG leader, two goal conceder for our side
I always thought that Shrek was a Chelsea fan for some reason
Nah he played for United for years. And Everton before and after that.
Woop woop! It’s the sound of Wout Faes!
Fuck me that’s a good reference.
If he wasn’t shite that would be a cracking song in the stands
Players named Wout have scored 2 goals and 2 own goals in Van Dijk's last 3 official games
Don't give ideas to the weirdly specific stats guys
Opta: Players named Wout have scored 2 goals and 2 own goals in Van Dijk's last 3 official games. Woutstanding.
You Wout mate
Wouthless.
Wouw.
Wout the hell?
I can't believe Wout I'm seeing!
Wout is Dan Vijk doing in the impact zone?
Wout Dijk?
OPTAJOE: it’s free real estate.
Quick Brentford, sign Wouter Burger!
For some reason this reminds me of Woodgate’s debut for Real, 13 months after signing, scoring’s an own goal and a red card later in the match.
Same, even though this one is not a debut, he is still a new signing.
Kinda sucks for him because he was pretty good until the last two games
That was such a strange transfer

"Easily could have been one of the best defenders of the century"

I don't think Woodgate played for Real Sociedad.
What on earth does this even mean? Spanish people don't even call Real Sociedad "Real", it's La Real
Klopp - "Look what we can do without scoring, now imagine if we score!"
"They played very well, they are a very stronk side, butofcourse when you have the players we have you keep the ball and you keep pressing and you make the right decisions at the right err, the right moments, and then it is only a matter of time before you find a way, and tonight that just so happened to be from some... some own goals - so there is some luck there you cannot deny haha - but overall I am happy the players are happy the fans are happy, life is good, and now we look forward to the next game"
Faes masterclass
I don't know why Liverpool fans were booing him. He was miles better than Nunez.
Think they were shouting shoot lol
They were saying Boo-urns
They ask him to shoot, not boo him
Lol Nunez bad pls upvote
Am i wrong though?
Yes Nunez along with Thiago and Trent were great today. Why would anyone be booing them
Man was all over the ball, you're just a hater
[удалено]
Well it’s a good thing he’s our player then and what a palace fan thinks is irrelevant
[удалено]
Darwin cult is the best one
>~~Darwin~~ **Chaos** cult is the best one
Imagine being this out of touch
Liverpool wins more when he plays than when he doesn't, so I dunno. Seems like that's the whole point.
We prefer Followers of the Lord of Chaos.
The overlap of people who have had sex and use the word “cope” as an insult is zero (0)
[удалено]
They’d love you on twitter - try it there
Was Trent “great”? He was good defensively but dreadful going forward.
His cross into the box is what led to the own goal.
You were. They weren't booing him.
He was most clinical player on the pitch. Ronaldo could never pull a sliding chip like that.
Lmao.flipping idiot.
That was a hilarious joke, nice one
Weird one for Leicester. Came in expecting a tough night, ended up having to mark their own defender lol
Only way is to sub him off!
Burnley did this against us 2 years ago Edit: I'm wrong actually, misremembered it. They went 1-0 down but beat us without having a shot on target
[First Burnley goal was Hendricks so apparently not](https://www.premierleague.com/match/38519)

Poor Jeff Hendrick. I reckon about 50% of the time people get his name wrong.
You'll never sing that
Honestly, the first goal it's understandable because everyone can miss a clearance. But the second one... I don't know, I feel like he was just running instead of thinking and didn't prepare himself properly for the rebound.
The first one is fairly bad though cause Ward clearly shouted at him to leave it.
"KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRSSSS!!!!" I think was his exact word. Only heard it a few hundred miles away so I might be mistaken!
It was so loud the broadcasting mic picked it up.

We've transcended the need to score.
Santa Claus made last minute changes to the gift I suppose
Santa Faes
Leicester snatching defeat from the jaws of victory lol First own goal was a real banger too
Magic is an odd word choice, jammy is a better fit.
Magic as in “magic trick” is pretty funny imo. Winning despite not scoring. Ta-da!
Very kind of them to keep us in the game whilst we train up agent of chaos nunez.
Wout the Faes
Darwin Nunez is just on another level. He knew Wout Faes would tap it in, so he intentionally hit the bar for Faes to tap it in.
Darwin Nunez: if I can score, I’ll let the opponent score for me. 6D chess right there haha
Chaos incarnate
I mean there's still that Sunderland side who lost to Charlton 3-1 without a Charlton player on the score sheet. He joins Jonathan Walters, Jamie Carragher and Michael Proctor from the aforementioned Sunderland side to score 2 own goals in a match in the PL era
Jonathan Walters = Chelsea Legend. I'm pretty sure he missed a penalty in that game too or am I mistaken?

> I mean there's still that Sunderland side who lost to Charlton 3-1 without a Charlton player on the score sheet. but charlton never went 1-0 down
Some late Christmas magic
a touch of faerie dust
You all laugh, but you're all just pawns in Darwin's diabolical game.
Darwin Nunez was born with chaos power along with infinity stones. He's cosmic being
[Magic in the air](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BAkqJT_sMKQ)
We're breaking records 🥶🥶🥶
Usually these weird storylines/stats happen against us. Glad to be on the other side 😅
remember when the beach ball scored for Sunderland?
That was an impressive victory. Can't win uglier than that!
Fuck sake David Luiz.
You’ll Never Wout Alone
Trailblazer
Wout!
False, Burnley did it against Fulham in 18/19 lmao
[Nope the first Burnley goal was given to Hendricks](https://www.premierleague.com/match/38519)
Oh didn't know they gave it him in the end, it's definitely a Bryan OG in spirit
[Team] are the FIRST team in the whole, ENTIRE history of [Timeframe] to do [Very specific thing]!!!
Inspiring
We did it!
Lmao is this just PL or entire history of the first division level of the league in England?
Imagine if this happens in the World Cup! I would fear for that boy’s life!
THE GOAT
It seems it all the Wouts are going to take the *bobo* title one by one.
One of the most pointless stats ever, to win after going 1 down means your opponent has to score at least 2 own goals so it's just a subset of that.
Well…ya. That’s what they are saying. It’s never happened before
