Guest VaVaVoom Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 He's a very solid player. Not great with the ball at his feet but certainly not the worst in our team at present. [/quote Agreed. I rate him. Just wish he had a little more of a footballing brain. I still panic at times when he has the ball at his feet and time to think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 His footballing brain is good, he's just not a natural with the ball at his feet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 He is a very intelligent defender because he knows his weaknesses, avoids putting himself in a situation that shows off his weaknesses and he uses the strengths of his team mates. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 It's remarkable how well he's slotted in after a long injury TBF to him. Having Colo alongside obviously helps, but still very impressive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Him and Colo worked as a pairing from their first game together against Palace. They're a very good fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest VaVaVoom Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Him and Colo worked as a pairing from their first game together against Palace. They're a very good fit. They do work well together. I think most CB's would do well alongside Colo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most CB's would do well alongside Colo. Perch v West Brom??? It is naive to suggest that most CB's would look good next to Colo. I think they have a good partnership because they complement eachother well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Perch isn't a CB. He's a Championship RB/CDM/utility player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Perch isn't a CB. He's a Championship RB/CDM/utility player. Fair call; however, my point stands that it is unfair to down play Williamson's ability because he is partnering Colo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Nobody was doing that. VaVaVoom stated "I think most CB's would do well alongside Colo". This is clearly a tacit questioning of Williamson's ability. I disagreed. I think it is naive to suggest that any CB next to Colo would be competent. I think Williamson has proven to be a very capable defender. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madras Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Both looked poor on the night, especially Perch. Neither 'looked the mug'. both looked as bad as each other, colo looked worse as you'd expect more and looked especially poor on the first and third goals.

geordiedean Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 He's a disgrace of a centre half tbh...shockingly slow, always static and square on to the forwards and is incapable of heading the ball further than 5 yards....the sooner we get a decent defender in the better Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Big Al Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 It just showed why the club is actively on the market for a new CB - Willo is a Championship player, who can take his part at the end of a PL match just to win the headers. He is by no means a quality CB - a squad player at best, to cover the holes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 If you're not quick you have to have a good body position on the turn and anticipate the ball behind. He doesn't seem to have that habit which is a bit odd tbh! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 Can't blame the guy for not being quick. The defence playing virtually on the halfway line even after conceding three was nothing short of moronic/an invitation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
