Davide Santon (now retired)


Recommended Posts

 

Needs to sit out a few games and take stock of things.

 

:thup: That's the joy of having such a big squad...............oh wait.

 

Actually pretty well stocked in his position :lol:

 

Stocked with what? Kids? Dummett, Haidara are f***ing children and MYM's not a natural there.

 

As opposed to the fully developed professional that is Santon?

 

He's got bag loads more experience than those 3, in that position.

What does his experience bring? He can't even be bothered to run.

He's a better player than Dummett will ever be that's for sure.

Haidara should have took over his position about 15 games ago tbh.

 

This. How he continues to be picked when he can't even be arsed to get back and lets Sammy do the majority of his defending I will never know. Mediocre at best going forward and a fucking calamity at the back.

He may be fully developed and consider himself a professional - many of us just see him as a poor defender who plays on the left and can't cross with his left foot.

 

Sell

One of the few that come out with any credit today, looked a threat going forward and defended well.

 

Some of his crosses were excellent, best I've seen from us in awhile that wasn't from HBA or Cabaye.

Him and Gosling were the only players to come out with a tiny bit of credit today imo.

 

Shame his cross was so poor after he'd skinned Evra although you could argue either De Jong or Cisse should have been in the 6 yard box.

Gosling? You off your tits? He must've touched the ball 10 times at best second half. Utterly anonymous.

Gosling, credit? What?

He was absolutely dreadful and offered nothing part from being a part of their first goal.

Hmm, credit might have been the wrong word to use. Thought in the first half though he looked positive and was always wanting to drive on from midfield.

 

It might just be because I'm used to Tiote and Anita being our centre midfields and them never setting foot near the opposition's box.

Aside from it not being their natural game I'd be flabbergasted if there weren't told not too.

Cisse and De Jong made the same run to the near post. It was a decent ball from Santon but one of them needed to hold back their run and wait at the far post while one took the defenders away to the front post.

 

I agree about Gosling but it's not fashionable to do so.
