Well deserved, and gives us some stability there for the next few years.
Cody needs a good song (I am not really aware if he has a song).
Given how often his name is misspelt, a variation of Synpathy for the devil might work:
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what’s puzzlin’ you
Is the nature of my game
With Cody being a devout Christian, I don’t think he would like that idea too much.
Like you’ve said, it does grate on my nerves when they butchered his name as Gap Co…similar to nuclear be pronounced as new-cue-lar.
Yes, it would be a bit inappropriate! I was just thinking that the whoo-hoo refrain in the song would make for a great football chant.
No wonder Chiesa is no hurry to move back to Italy.
Following the departure of fellow left-winger Luis Diaz, the 26-year-old has stepped into a role of even greater importance and will be earning an increased salary to reflect that.
**He has been earning a reported £120,000 per week at Liverpool, about the same as Federico Chiesa**, who is just 18 months older and started 28 games fewer than Gakpo last season.
