He's played well today
Before the pass for the goal (when I posted) he'd done f*** all. Shut up you wum.
Judging by your childish riposte you're an idiot; you've got no idea how to read the game and resort back to tired, populist cliches that are constantly spouted by the ignorant sections of our supporters and those who don't even watch the matches.
Shola has been crucial in keeping the ball up top, along with Ba, something that had been working reasonably well - especially when Gosling got sent off as we resorted to more direct passing. All throughout the match, Shola has been pressurising the Norwich players and ultimately, this led to the chance for the 2nd goal. He's been creating chances for his team-mates and overall has had a decent game.
You'd rather slag him off because he's an easy scapegoat and/or you're incapable of reading the game.
Your criticism of Obertan is fair, he was pretty dismal, didn't offer anything with his 'lightening pace'.
He was lazy and ineffective before his assist. After that he livened up. I'm amazed people are still prepared to defend him though, he's truly a useless player.
Also, even when he did liven up I'd have much rather had Best on because he can link up well with Ba the entire game. If Ameobi was on for set-piece defending then it's easy to see it didn't work.
Ameobi was shocking defending set-pieces. Stood still on their third goal when his man had couple of tries.
He won his fair share, more than anyone else I noticed.
