The College Dropout Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Defensively solid all game. When he had the ball though............ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 He was absolutely fucking awful.....his passing and awareness are so sub standard it beggars belief. Insert meme Go back and watch the game again, in the 2nd half, i only saw it so closely as i has to pause the Sky+. Just watch him for about ten minutes. It is embarrassing, absolutely embarrassing.

Deuce Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I thought he did well, actually. That's cause he did do well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 The biggest compliment I can give is that I didn't notice him today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penn Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I though he was poor. There was a period that summed him up in the second half where 3 consecutive touches of his led to the ball going out of play or straight to the feet of a Liverpool player. Invites pressure on us more than any other player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Crooks Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 The only contibutions he makes are when you are on the back foot. It's helpful now and then but overall not good enough for a side that screams for pass and move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 He looks an accident waiting to happen. Why wasn't he going to be named on the bench, btw? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Upped his game from last week's shithouse display and reacted well to initially being 19th man. Well done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 He went from about a 2/10 to a 3 or 4 today, IMO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyeyzzon Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Seems to be a big game player, although that only raises him from being s**** to solid. Never gonna be a MotM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I was thinking that. He's dreadful in both types of game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I thought it was the sort of game where he isn't half bad. Just asked to defend and then hoof it away when he gets it. Anything more and he struggles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Utterly useless in attack. In fact, having him come past the half way line usually ends up hurting us. In fact, he is a better attacker for the opposition than he is for us. He fills the gap, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATB Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I thought it was the sort of game where he isn't half bad. Just asked to defend and then hoof it away when he gets it.

Dr Venkman Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Interesting that he wasn't even going to be on the bench, that's quite a big difference to the guaranteed start he's had in recent times. Is it the beginning of Pardew phasing him out? I bloody hope so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His defensive positional awareness is probably his biggest strength. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rey Mysterio Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 It's not his lack of 'attacking ability' that's the main problem when we're in possession, it's the fact he so often gifts it straight back to the opposition. Even when he doesn't it more often than not ends up back at our keeper within 5 seconds (often from within 30/40 meters of the opposition goal) which just delays giving the ball away. Our tactics on the whole lead to us as a team being poor at keeping the ball but individuals who are not technically capable just compound the issue.
