Optimistic Nut Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Got lucky imo, very poor between the two goals. Having said that, we had half of our first-choice outfield players out, and still got an away Premier League win. Credit where it's due. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you reckon Ameobi & Best are ahead of Cisse in the pecking order? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All 4 pretty bloody important though. If you just took RVP out of Arsenal they would struggle big time imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might as well say Djibril Cisse wasn't ahead of Bothroyd, or Taiwo ahead of Clint Hill in the QPR pecking order. Pedantic to say the least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't missed Taylor too much, I agree that his form this season would make him currently an upgrade on Williamson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Just because he hasn't been first choice so far this season, doesn't mean he isn't a first choice outfield player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cabaye, Tiote and Ba are big misses, Taylor less so. I for one think that is completely wrong. Williamsons agility is terrible, players twist and turn him all the time. Neither does he have the strength to handle bigger players either. Modeste was all over him today. My bet is steven would have won 90% of the battles with him today with the form he was in before his injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree here mind although Williamson is a more than capable back up. 4 in 6 clean-sheets since he's been back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I don't see how it can be claimed that Cisse is first choice, the same as Santon wasn't until recently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 If we signed Messi, he'd be first choice because he'd massively outclass anyone. I think it's safe to assume Cisse massively outclasses Shola. Though, your Santon point does raise a few ?s Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Taylor could have won everything at the back tonight and still wouldn't have made a difference to the outcome of the game. Does that also mean we didn't miss Tiote? Just because we won anyway doesn't mean we didn't miss a player who could have made it a much more comfortable game for us. We've definitely missed Taylor, Norwich and West Brom especially, two games I don't think we'd have lost if Taylor had stayed fit. Williamson coming back means we haven't missed him as much in other games of course, though I think Fulham is one of the exceptions, we missed him big time in that game IMO.

BottledDog Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Really getting sick and tired of the liberal use of 'mong' in these threads. Sorry, and I can well believe I'm just showing my age here, but at what point did this become a vaguely amusing or in any way acceptable term to refer to someone?
