How Kanu Miss That?

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 just once in while
over talent and style
comes a gaff that defies every rule
and with seconds to go
you’d be nervous I know
but you’d sure try to master your cool

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 so when you get the ball
with no-one close at all
you’d be sure on a pretty safe bet
that as night follows morning
with an empty goal yawning
you would just tap it into the net

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 but glorious clangers abound in this game
where a man has to eat his own hat
but if offered again
and again and again
How could you – how Kanu miss that?

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 and i guess our young scapegoat might comment with care
on just what went on in his mind
but like managers say
in that infinite way
“I just missed what went on at the time”..

Notes

on that amazing last minute miss for West Brom by Kanu against Middlesborough..can we see it again please?..such skill …
welcome back to the Hawthorns..Mr Robson!
