Deuce Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Can't believe it man. He was nowhere near as bad as some made out. He wasn't great going forward and that frustrated a lot of people, especially in a team that was challenging for and then playing in Europe. But he has always been a decent defender; he'd certainly be a defensive upgrade on Janmaat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Can't believe it man. He was nowhere near as bad as some made out. 100% correct. I've always rated him. Good defender who actually defends. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 He was fairly shit and not the best off field character but it was ludicrous how he was regularly the escape goat for excusing Pardews AIDSariffic brand of football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 People were hardly wrong at the time like Him and Williamson in defence next to each other was an eyesore and he'd probably be no better than Janmaat if he was still here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 When we finished 5th, we defended well as a team (apart from when we got tanked). Defending is not just about individuals, really wish people would realize this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnes23 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 He was, and is, pretty shit. Passable as part of a well-organised team and a functioning back four providing he doesn't venture forward often (if at all). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Aye, even the two Taylor's were solid for the fist dozen games or so that season. I think he'd be a total mess if he was in this squad now like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Crooks Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Just further serves the importance of building a squad balance can give lesser players. He's still the weakest player in that back line but there's is built for purpose - not on the grounds of cost or contract length. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 He was f***ing rubbish man if running backwards was an Olympic event All defenders back off at times, it's coached into them that they don't dive in and take themselves out of the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Steven Taylor takes backing off to the next level like, 4-5 times in the past 3 games he's had a centre forward running at him and he's led them from about 40 yards out to the end of his 18 yard line.

Janmaat and Taylor are equally as poor at present if not worse... Aye I completely agree, we're just s*** though. Janmaat would look a lot better if he was playing for Leicester than he does here. Aye, probably. I've ran out of patience with Janmaat like. I've defended him for most of the season blaming those in front of him and beside him but he just isn't a full back.

The College Dropout Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Was always a very decent and capable defender. Unfashionable because technically he was very limited, a little pressure and he would hoof it. Going forward his crossing was awful. But he could actually defend and fairly handy in the air for a fullback. Off the pitch he seems a bad egg but around the football club he seemed decent. On the pitch he gives it his all. He's shown in a couple of seasons he can be a part of a very organised and determined back four - that speaks to his character. The stick he got was OTT. He was never as bad as Janmaat has been this season. On another note I think we've really missed Dummett these last couple of months. By a mile the most solid FB at the club and he's the best defensive header of the ball at the club. He gets his head on a good number of defensive corner and free kicks and we've looked even more vulnerable from set pieces without him. Another with s great attitude on the pitch.

I don't think they'd be winning the title if Janmaat was there like. He quite often goes missing and is individually culpable for a lot of the goals we concede. No amount of organisation can make a player give a shit. Janmaat just doesn't care about defending enough. It's not his thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
