gbandit Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Disagree about the defending part Heza and you're right,he can strike the ball well in open play but only of given a lot of time and space.he can't make either of those things for himself which is a flaw.he shouldn't be starting but he's had his best season of his career and even if he was to continue to play at his optimum he'd never be good enough Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enough to play in a back four that was one of the best defensive units in the league until S. Taylor got injured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Collective defensive strength is completely different to an individual's defensive abilities, and Taylor has next to none. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is ideal for anyone aiming to finish in the top 7 as a squad player, but he shouldn't be a starter should we progress. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shak Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Mick starting on the right for the next game would be awesome. It really wouldn't, I would be asking to come off within the first 5 minutes and would be dead within 10. I just imagine you receiving the ball on the flank, the crowd buzzing with the excitement to see the new guy in action. You run at the full back but are easily disposed only to mutter "Mackem Cunt" and hack the legs out from under him. You then turn to Pardew and call him a cunt for picking you before storming off the field. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree to a degree, but every player in the unit has an important part to play, and he played his part. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shak Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Wonder what Steve Bruce will be doing for this btw?
