Nobby Solano.

Not finished.

 

Good for the first hour, and on his day, he's still one of the most creative players in our squad.

 

He should be played more sparingly, though. Good thing with Nobby is that you're guaranteed a ball into the box. First thing Milner did when he came on was beat his man, then play a pathetic low ball that hit the first Charlton player in his eyeline. And that's what you're guaranteed with Milner nowadays.

Still got the skill and technique, just not the fitness to cope with Premiership football anymore.

 

Good idea by Glenn to drop Milner after his best game of the season last week.

Finished at Newcastle.

 

Doesn't have the legs for 90 mins anymore and his expertise is his delivery of crosses, which at the moment is no use as our tallest attacking player is about 5"11.

 

Milner is much more useful these days.

D'you think he's "lost interest" post the transfer deadline day shenannigans?

By no means finished, still has the passing ability and ball delivering skills some players in our squad could only dream of sadly.

His best game of the season was against Everton, he was fucking brilliant. He dropped him for the home game after that too, so your point remains valid.

thousand times better than millner, tbh. I haven't seen anything from millner that'd justify a place in the starting XI. with solano, atleast we get some good crosses and decent balls. all millner does is run like a headless chicken and then lose the ball

Solano would make an awful right back tbh.  He can't tackle and his legs have gone.  Any pacy left winger is going to give him a horrendous time.

Obafemi Martins (10 million golden nuggets)

 

2 goals vs Levadia Tallinn = On bench for Man Utd.

 

Clueless.

Picking out an individual player who has not been any worse than our better players is silly at this point... considering how poorly the whole team is and that we are dropping down the table rapidly. Without Solano we would NOT have won our last UEFA Cup match... but nevermind.

 

Oh and by the way, for those of you that are new: Crumpy has an axe to grind with Solano so this is just opportunism on his part.

Was by far the best player on the park yesterday in my honest opinion!

 

Take it you wern't watching the same match as me then, he was struggling to make 1 DECENT through ball to Duff/Rossi.

He also got into Rossi's way when he was clear on goal and made Rossi get tackled. I agree with Crump, he's finished and I've thought this too.

His age has caught up with him but still one of the best footballing brains in the Prem, he will not be here much longer in my opinion, maybe until the end of the season but his choice to return to international football is a one that should cost him his place here.
