Nah There's no nah about it. Santon's a better defender and attacker and Dummett's unquestionably a better defender who will get a few goals, too. He's well behind.

Writing off a young lad who's come into a shit team and still barely put a foot wrong in the Premier League. It's pathetic.

He's rightfully our third choice LB when all are fit. Of course he's not getting in his national U21 side.

Why? What's better about the Bundesliga than can feasibly be replicated? We've got a more lucrative league of far better footballing quality.

So clearly is it a load of rubbish that 'didn't play particularly well in 4 games' is the harshest criticism. Vicious.

I've had 2 new ones in the past couple of months. I got bored, mate. Feeble attempt to spread a little cheap humour, I guess.

Let's not re-write history because he's playing well now. We shipped in 2 goals in games against City, Palace, Hull and Swansea and didn't give a particularly good defensive performance in any of those games, him included. I think he's a decent player but let's not pretend he's been good since the start of the season when clearly he hasn't. I totally disagree. One player who definitely wasn't good at the start of the season was your mate, Williamson. You're entitled to your opinion but you're wrong as is usually the case when you start typing. We were shambolic defensively until the start of last month. None of the back 4 were playing well at the start of the season with the exception of Janmaat who was decent and now looks like a great signing. Anyone who watched us over the first half dozen games knows this. Funny you've made 3 posts on the subject without being able to allude to one game in which Dummett individually let us down.

He has been absolutely fine defensively from the first game against City.

I dread to think what would be said about Dummett if he hadn't defended well all season, like. Some incredibly blinkered people on here.

No, they intimidate mong readers.

I wouldnt give him any reception. He isn't worth one. Average player who was never good enough in CM and only good enough out wide with Carroll to aim for.

It makes not one bit of difference. Tiote was always going to take his place when fit.

Still calling him a winger. I hope Mark Douglas gets hit by a bus.

Is Dummett playing?

Cabella's in there all the time apparently.

In the way he did? Personally I found the whole chapter embarrassing, damaging and not befitting of our club. Again, I wouldn't be surprised if Bellamy used the situation to engineer a move away. Souness was 100% wrong to use him the way he did and Bellamy was right, Souness wasn't the right man etc. we all knew that, but he feigned injury by all accounts and caused an uproar behind the scenes. At the time, Bellamy vs Souness was like choosing between good and evil, but in hindsight they were both bad apples if you like. Selfishly of course Bellamy was more important to the club in terms of how good he was and what he brought to the team, but we were well shot of him as we were Souness. FS should of fired them both together. Fired our best player because he didn't get on with a manager who put his own ego before the club. Quality. Brilliant insight. Bold is nonsense, too.

Lallana and Henderson were shocking there. He may be well past his best but even at 36 Frank Lampard would moonwalk into that midfield.

I'd honestly rather watch Ireland try to play football than any of that nonsense.

Being violently sick is better than cycling.

No wonder NUFC is in such a state if you believe that Bellamy was a symbol of the club's greatness - the only wonder is that you actually want Pardew out. Have you always been this thick? The only time we've enjoyed football even approaching great in the past 17 years has direct correlation with Bellamy's 3 full seasons. Having the capacity to recognise this has nothing to do with the state of the club. It is, however, basic common sense.

Shit. Poor lad.

Eh? Was he really high up or what?

Blame Merlin for his utterly embarrassing take on a player whose arrival and departure symbolised the beginning and end of the last great period to be an NUFC fan.
