Apart from Diafra Sakho there was one other player who more than deserved a result from today’s clash against under-rated Norwich City.
Maybe after last weekend’s heroics, the Irons expected a more comfortable afternoon against the Canaries. One man most certainly did not – goalkeeper Adrian.
The stopper added to his cult hero Upton Park status with another series of top class saves after his fabulous but losing performance against Leicester City in the Capital One Cup.
One second half from Cameron Jerome almost took his head off his shoulders in the second half leaving him with nose bleed and stars in his eyes.
But he was on his feet in a flash and after wiping his face over with a towel he was back on his feet ready to see things out and despite the game looking to be heading down the toilet eventually got his just deserts.
And after the game he made his feelings clear on Twitter declaring: ” Adrián San Miguel @AdriSanMiguel 2 hours ago We could win and also lose today but the team have fought until the end to get a positive & good point
This is the way
#WHU #COYI
Adrian, like Sakho who runs his socks of for the team and bleeds for the cause, is proof that you dont have to have roots in Canning Town to love WHU to bits. You just do.
Adrian is a good guy,top keeper as well.Hasnt taken him long to put the Adrian or Randolph in goal debate to bed.Adrian is our No1 keeper by a distance.Though i still rate Randolph as a good back-up 😉
for those of us who scoff at respecting the point, you better respect this one lol. It was very hard earned.
We actually have a squad of players that give their all,the posers have left the club or are training with the 18 year olds,
Adrien became a cult figure last year with his penalty and has had very few bad games,
He will be pushing to become Spain’s keeper this year,
As we become more high profile as a club
