Flip Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 WTF is going on here. Obertan actually links up well with Haidara and the left and created some plays In contrast, Janmaat and Sissoko did absolutely f*** all on the right and failed some simple link ups Comments here are f***ing harsh / biased. Obertan is s*** but no way he should be criticized for today's performance. Must be a joke, otherwise I suggest going back to watching tennis.

triggs Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Best I've seen him since that European game a couple of years ago. He played better in a few games last season. It pains me to complain about a winger's defensive contribution but for what I presume was meant to be a hard working winger he is absolutely braindead defensively Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenige Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Obertan's defensive tracking in the second half was an absolute embarrassment for a professional footballer. Haidara was shocking today but don't think he could have been helped less by someone playing in front of him (at least defensively, they actually linked up well once or twice going forward).

Cronky Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 In the lead up to Southampton's equaliser, he made a very half-hearted challenge for a 50-50 ball. Basically, he was scared of getting hurt. Okay, it didn't directly lead to the goal, but it was a chance to stop their attack and launch a break, and he didn't take it. There are just too many moments like that from this player.

Aiston Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Obertan was decent today I thought. Haidara on the other hand... Obertan made no attempt to help Haidara....Left Haidara trying to cover vs 2 Southampton attackers continuously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Obertan should have come off around 60 minutes, his game had peaked. We needed to get Aarons on to keep their Right side honest and keep them guessing/worried at the unpredictability of Aarons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madras Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Obertan should have come off around 60 minutes, his game had peaked. We needed to get Aarons on to keep their Right side honest and keep them guessing/worried at the unpredictability of Aarons. This and to drive at pace at a full back who'd been booked. I thought Obertan had a decent game but not having a go at a full back booked early on was his mistake and the teams tactically. Spent too much time getting the ball from Haidara with his back to the full back and being held up rather than getting the defender face up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 He ran out of steam after 70 minutes, fair enough, but he was being a bit lazy with his tracking on a few occasions much earlier in the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
