Belfast Mags Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 He just looks like a booking/sending off waiting to happen, totally misjudging/misreading the game/pace all the fucking time, it's actually frightening. A full International you say? Jesus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 The way we play we need full backs who can defend properly because they're constantly on the back foot. He's obviously not the type of player we need in that position right now. It's a sad indication of where we are as a team. I've no doubt he would be effective in a team that plays positively and on the front foot. That doesn't excuse his performance or lack of effort tonight though. Oh come on man, doesn't every team. That's what full back's do now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 He never played as bad as this for lille though. From the few matches i caught. the thing is the French league isn't all that good. Outside of PSG and maybe in the future Monaco (and only then funded by people with way more money than sense) how many would do well in the prem?

morgs Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Responsible for 3 of the goals tonight. One of the worst performances I have ever seen, frankly i hope psg come in for him. We would do better with santon and dummett starting on the flanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what full back's do now Not really. Clichy for example is average defensively, but is in the side for his attacking play and ability to get up and down the line. You reckon the likes of him, Rafael, Baines or Walker would look as good for us as they do for their clubs? Not a chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLK Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 He wasn't great tonight but to say he was the worst NUFC player out there is plane stupid. How about Steven fu*king Tylor or Papisse Crap Cisse ? Tiote wasn't the worst either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away Toon Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Debuchy certainly looked a good player for France before we bought him. It is however interesting that nobody else seemed interested in buying him apart from us, despite that fact that he was available for a long time. Maybe the other clubs knew something we didn't. Like a lot of our players, he looks disinterested and unhappy, I don't think any of the arrivals over the last year or so, thought it was going to be like this.

Away Toon Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 If it wasn't for the money I'm sure they would all like to go back or get transferred. I bet they are all seriously envious of Cabaye. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnes23 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 He was crap last night, but I'm still confident he can be a quality player for us. Those wittering on about his nationality/our recruitment policy would do well to remember his performance against England at Euro 2012, where he was easily one of the best players on the pitch. When an entire team performs as we did last night, scapegoating individuals serves only to deflect away from the wider picture. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 The problem lies with the tactics for the most part so its hard to justify blaming certain players over others but that performance from Debuchy last night was far worse than I ever saw from Simpson and I hated Simpson with a passion.
