Yorkie Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Perfect little dink for Carroll's goal that. When crosses like that, and Best's the other day, are coming into the box - there's always a massive chance we're gonna score. Especially if Carroll's on the pitch - but in fairness all our strikers are decent in the air. Smashing slip-rule pass through buy Guthrie aswell.

Optimistic Nut Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Still offers more than Smith on the pitch and as captain imo. Him with Guthrie until Barton's back will do for this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phil K Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 on the plus side at least he admits he had a bad game on saturday, lets look for positives and despite the fact hes overweight and disappears from games hes actually one of my favourite players Well said. I'm a critic of Nolans fall from the heights. But let's hope he's accepting his responsibility to get back to producing the goods at last. Still offers more than Smith on the pitch and as captain imo. Him with Guthrie until Barton's back will do for this season. No shortage of effort from Smith but a HUGE shortage of ability or effectiveness for months. In fact it talies with Nolans drop out of the goalscoring stakes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 I said last night to my mate that I liked Nolan like, despite his recent form being shat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 He's the only player in our team that my reactions are seriously knee jerk over. When he's doing alright and scoring I like him, but if he one of those games where he seems to have no awareness of whats going on around him, barks orders at team mates despite doing fuck all himself, even if its just one blip game, I don't want him anywhere near the fucking team again!!! He'll score or play well the next game and I'll be fine with him again! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I actually am quite warming to Nolan as captain and I don't know why. He's not offering anything of real note on the pitch, but you can tell he's got alot of respect from the rest of the team and he never shuts up talking to them during the game.

I think the key to good midfield performances is playing only one of Nolan, Butt or Smith. I'm not really fussed which one if Jonas and Routledge are the wide players and the other central midfielder is either Guthrie or Barton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Venkman Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 on the basis of the last two games i wouldnt want him dropped tbh, i've been his harshest critic at times but credit where credit's due, he's looked effective. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith needs dropped first anyway & we don't have the players to drop both of them. If Routledge is fit, Smith needs to drop back out again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he just knackered? or has he returned to last years headless chicken and yellow cards form? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have to ask someone else, I've thought he's gone from being an average at best midfielder at the start of the season to shite again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's only capable of playing a defensive midfielder role these days, the problem is the other central midfielders all want to play the same role.
