madras Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 His discipline is probably the only criticism anyone can have towards him. He's had a brilliant eight months and pound for pound is probably the signing of the season. I don't think there's anything wrong with his discipline personally. If you take that aggression away from his game, then he won't be the same player. Plus as Gimp mentioned - at the moment he seems to get booked a lot for trivial things, it's not like he's intentionally going out there to injure opponents. He just needs to be a bit clever sometimes I think, not tackle someone when he could just block their path and protect the space. We miss him a lot when he's out, would be great if he could learn to get suspended less. I wouldn't want to change his fundamental nature though obviously, you're right there. not many of those bookings haven't been of the professional 'necessary' type though.

Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 He's quicker than I thought too. He kept pace with nani a couple of times on Tues. Very agile too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 He's quicker than I thought too. He kept pace with nani a couple of times on Tues. Didn't even need to put his crazy run turbo boosters on either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RupertCommunicator Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Maybe we should rest him for the last couple of games if he gets to 14 yellows? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Was this his worst game for us this season? Seemed like he misplaced a lot of passes, lost the ball often, lost many headers and tackles as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Venkman Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 was rubbish today. either tried to take on 5 men or passed it a yard or two in the wrong place most of the game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 He was poor today and I would have taken him off when Lovenkrands went off because I thiught he'd pick up a second booking. The movement around and in front of him was really bad which didn't help him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punk77 Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 Not a good game, but the movements from players like Barton and Nolan were rubbish. Tiote didn't have options. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 I was sure he was going to walk today, his timing and judgement was miles from his usual standards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
