rocksammy Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Strikers in the CCC may be more physically punishing in terms of bullying defenders, but they aren't as strong and athletic as most strikers in the PL are. That's where Colo had problems. Against strikers like Carlton Cole, Drogba, Zamora, Roberts etc. He is weaker, smaller and slower. Williamson have the height and strength advantage, but he will be exposed more for his lack of pace in the PL than CCC the same way Colo did. deeper defensive line Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquidAK Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Thought Williamson was class last night. Couple of little errors, but overall was solid, was very confident of him stopping whatever they threw at him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I thought he was good but wasn't convinced about his pace, time will tell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 A good start so far, seems good in the air, decent on the floor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquidAK Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I thought he was good but wasn't convinced about his pace, time will tell. Hopefully that's just because he hasn't been playing first team football all season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully that's just because he hasn't been playing first team football all season. Which is a good point actually, the way he has settled into a new club, put in a couple of good performances and even looks to guide the back line has been very impressive considering he hasn't played all season!

Skirge Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I am impressed, I was wrong about him as I was not to impressed witht the dealw hen he first signed but 2 games in he look a really good buy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, that's basically why I've been so impressed, played like he's been playing alongside Colo all season, seemed very settled with him. Hoping that with games will come a bit more pace, because it was a thing I noticed he lacked a bit at Leicester. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit i like the fact he was telling the back four what to do at such an early stage. He may be a candidate for captain in the future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 He didn't lose a single header last night, and almost connected with a few corners. A very promising signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 By the looks of it, he's been pretty good for you. Premiership standard? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 By the looks of it, he's been pretty good for you. Premiership standard? I think he'd do alright. So much so I'd consider going: S.Taylor-----Williamson-----Colo-----Enrique Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 By the looks of it, he's been pretty good for you. Premiership standard? Aye I'd think so. We cant be complaining in my opinion about the 3 centre backs we have for next season, reckon we'll buy another if we go up though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 By the looks of it, he's been pretty good for you. Premiership standard? He's no worse than some of the defenders currently playing Premier League football evey week. He's not superb but he'll do for the time being. Sort of a tall Andy O'Brien. He'll do ok.
