Ronaldo Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I feel for him tbh You 'feel' for a footballer who gets paid probably 5 times what he's actually worth and repays us with a red card on the back of 2 years of 'performances' that almost make Alan Smith look useful? Give over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give over. I get your point. Out injured for 4 months, wanted to make an impression - sent off. He looked like he was about to cry. Empathy and shit.

Guest Nikos34 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 The bloke was signed off the back of 2 free kicks. He's too slow and has no trick. It's not as if he can win tackles and headers either. He is shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 See it all the time, a miscontrol followed by a lunge in to make amends and win the ball back. It's how we bring people up to play in this country... obviously still stupid. Thought he did alright before that though, he's not satan. Two footed challenges are pathetic and anyone doing them regularly should really be banned from the game. Well I agree, but in Taylor's case I don't think it was malicious. Stupid, yes, but in the heat of the game he was just trying to win the ball back. Obviously in the event he let his team down by getting sent off, but I don't think he deserves to be strung up for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujpest doza Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 came after a shocking first touch when he received the ball in-field and i thought that summed up his performance and was hoping he would be hauled off then he goes and puts that tackle in oh and it's clear elmander has done something to offend our squad. its like their all out to get him after today and the game at the reebok. I thought it was a harsh red card mind, but i've not seen a replay either. Elmander was a snidey cheating scumbag today and got away with shoving Jonas full in the face just before he was rolling around on the deck near the touchline in the 1st half.

joeyt Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Thought he had a decent game before the sending off, put a fantastic corner over yet no-one decided to attack it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is shite. He's a "hot potato" footballer in that he can't run with the ball at his feet without losing control or giving it to the opposition with a clumsy first touch. If you give him a stationary ball which he can line up and strike he can hit it pretty well though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 He looked pretty apologetic walking off the pitch like. He looks like that after he's scored as well like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vedder Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 He played well the first half I thought, looked comfortable on the ball. Haven't seen the challenge again but at the time it didn't seem like a red. Have to see a replay first though. I thought the same. I was getting annoyed that he was starting to drift infield a lot in the second half, then when he made that mistake I said to my mate "get him off now". Got a bit of stick off him once the red card was shown like! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cunning_Linguist Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Did'nt he make a similar challenge against Accrington Stanley but got away with it? You would have thought he would have really grabbed his opportunity of a rare start to give some quality competition but he has fucked it now (for 3 games anyway) its a shame that by the time he gets back we will have Messrs Ben Arfa, gosling and guthrie available. I don't dislike him at all I just think he was better at Wigan shame really because I saw him score an excellent goal against Palace iirc . When he does do this sort of thing I often wonder if we only signed him to stop.him scoring screamers against us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Heneage Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I think he knows he's on the way out. He's not better than Barton or Simpson and we are looking to strenthen rw in the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Monumental mistake making that tackle. Could well spell the end of his Premiership career in the end. Don't know how it got in to his head, his one start this season and that's what it all comes down to? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EastEndGeordie Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/8239/raylorsadpuppy.jpg That is the look of a man who knows that his career is finished. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpal78 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 The tackle was stupid but as a replacement for Barton he was quite ok, some of his crosses was not too bad and seemed to combine reasonably well with Perch. Didn't deserve to be applauded off but don't get all these posts castigating him as the incarnation of the devil. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colocho Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I think he knows he's on the way out. He's not better than Barton or Simpson and we are looking to strenthen rw in the summer. Exactly. Knew yesterday was his chance ... and blew it. We should be able to get a million or two in the summer, would be great to have his reported £30,000 a week off the wage bill.

Shak Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I hope he never plays for us again. He's not as bad as some of the shit we've had playing for us over the years, but he's just fucking depressing to look at. My heart actually sinks every time they show a close up of his face on the TV. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fugazi Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 He got clapped off the fucking pitch, was embarrassing. People were chanting his name when he went off too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
