AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Despite the mistake, I thought he battled well throughout the match. As others have said, it's important that fans don't get on his back, especially now that Colo is injured. Even if he makes an error against Liverpool (which seems very likely the way things are going for him in the past few weeks) he has the character to up his game. Agree, he lacks mobility and commits a few too many needless pulls/fouls, but as a squad CB I'd be happy with him. We need to get behind him for the next few games.

HongKongMag Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Whatever peoples judgment of him is, he need's our support this weekend, anything other than that will play into Liverpools hands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Venkman Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 As a centre half you're definitely within your rights to expect a call from the keeper in that situation, whether it's to clear it or leave it for him. If that call doesn't come though you need to know how late you can leave it and clear it at that point, Krul and Williamson both failed to do their jobs but Krul could've saved Williamson by being decisive.

Guest Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Definitely need two centre-backs this summer. One to partner Coloccini, and one to replace Williamson. Can't really rely on S.Taylor. Just had a look at his appearance record and it's not impressive. Only played more than 30 games in a league season once. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishmael Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Other than the goal incident, he was solid. That's like saying ' Titanic had a successful journey, apart from the iceberg part'. Not at all. Semi-funny though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roger Kint Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I thought the goal was Krul's fault myself like. So did i, if he didnt hesitate there wasnt a problem Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 He scares the shit out of me every time he gets the ball, shouldn't be anywhere near our first team next year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crumpy Gunt Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 No other options at the moment. Blame lack of activity b those who make the transfers. I'd be less than impressed if he's anywhere near starting next season. If he is it will go down as another unproductive transfer window certainly for the defence. Shocking player.

littlelunchbox Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 he's a hoof ball merchant. just like simpson, no confidence on the ball even without pressure he hoofs. but does alright for the defending part of his game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Say what you will about that play, he got fucking decked by Krul that would make any NFL Defensive Back proud. Part of me laughed deeply on the inside. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Thought the WBA goal was half of Krul, half of Williamson. Other than that, he was solid and looked dependable enough. I'm hoping the media interviews he did may give him some confidence too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
clintdempsey Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Say what you will about that play, he got fucking decked by Krul that would make any NFL Defensive Back proud. Part of me laughed deeply on the inside. Yep, it was a nasty knock to the side of the head. He looked completely lost for a second, eyes just went blank.

Guest NufcBano Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Willo is quite simply a Championship defender masquerading as a Premier league player. He summed himself up quite nicely on motd2 with, "...I pinch myself just watching myself on match of the day..." .............yea, I bet you do!

binnsy Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 He was alot better yesterday, the goal was unfortunate. i said to my mate at half time what a difference Williamson and Simpson were in the first without the crowd on there backs! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Consolation goal? There was 40 minutes left man. They manage to get another one and suddenly it would have been backs to the wall lucky to come away with the win. All hypothetical obviously as we still managed to control the game after it, but we simply can't give away such bad goals like that at this level. But we're talking about the game as a whole i.e. "other than the incident, he was solid". In the grand scheme of things, the incident was a consolation goal. It's hardly "sinking titanic" standards. If it'd led to us losting 4-3 then yeah, it would have been. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
