KaKa Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Been impressed with Cuellar today. Haven't seen him play centrally before, but seems to read a lot of dangerous situations very early and has been clearing the ball all game. Reo-Coker has been really good at right back also. He's barely featured at CB. He's a victim of the strange thing MON has about full backs. NRC has looked very good there, I think In fact, i think we've played very well today, bar their goal, other than our inability to put the ball in the net. Right back might just be Reo-Coker's best position. His lesser qualities on the ball are not as glaring but his strengths i.e. his strength, tackling, work rate and pace really shine. Come again? You don't think Reo-Coker has pace? Come on man! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Bent looked offside when Palacios hit the initial shot, does that not count when he comes back into play? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Always irks me to see Spurs winning, especially the way things are the bottom, but Villa deserve nothing less than they're getting at the moment. Presumably O'Neill will be telling them to lose from now on so they don't have to qualify for that pesky UEFA Cup again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Bent looked offside when Palacios hit the initial shot, does that not count when he comes back into play? Phase 1 - Phase 2 = Phase -1. So that's a negative, so no. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatwax Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Bent looked offside when Palacios hit the initial shot, does that not count when he comes back into play? I haven't seen it, but if Bent was offside when Palacios kicked it then yeah he was in an offside position. There's a different between being in an offside position and being penalised for being offside though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Milner playing the position he will end up playing in his future. Right back. Gabby on the right now with Carew and Heskey up top and Young on the left. Could be interesting this last half hour. Villa could get back into this.

TRon Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Spurs are playing very nice football it has to be said. But then they've got "Jenarse" in midfield who was hated up here, whereas now we've got Nicky Butt and Nolan. Lucky us! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of misplaced passes he's played is just as bad as Butt and co. Modric and Palascios have been the reason their midfield has been decent. Its plain to see.

toonarmy Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Darren Bent scores goals. Period. Ah right, because sliding across to tap in a ball that was already half a foot away from going in over the line anyway demonstrates this. Not saying he's not a good player, just that that goal isn't exactly a shining example of Bent being a great goalscorer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new phase of play began when Keane had his shot, and when that happened Bent was in an onside position, so it's a legit goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you forgotten how bad their midfield was at the start of the season when this Jenas was in midfield? Mostly down to Palacios and Lennon's form. nothing to do with Jenas. Sorry.
