ATB Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 What's up with the Debuchy bashing?! I honestly don't know what some people are watching. Did they think the guy was going to never make any mistakes or what? This guy got thrown into a defence playing poorly, and a team playing poorly, starting and playing the majority of games from day one. Think all being said and done he's been brilliant! See Evra's first months at Man U. Now he was terrible! Same will happen with MYM, 'What he doesn't completely stop us conceding? f*** sake! Should have stuck with Williamson!'. What is this I said I though he have looked slow and now all this? Even if he would be the fastest footballer in the league come May, he could still come of a slow start. Thats possible. And show me where I have said that he should be replaced Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Manchester United fans questioned Evra and Vidic when they first arrived................... Obviously I know he´s a good RB either wise he wouldn´t, for example, play in the euros. But are you not allowed to questioning someone? Evra and Vidic came good, but I´m sure a lot of player even has been labeled a great player after a few games and then just disappeared. It´s up to them/him to prove us wrong. There's analysing a performance but then there's having the understanding that players take time to adapt to a new league. The Evra/Vidic example simply reinforces that. Prove you wrong? Do you go to matches/watch on tv hoping that players will confirm your doubts? I certainly don't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Looked more like the Debuchy we saw playing for France. Settling into English football nicely, and will only get better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuy_O Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 He's a good player and has performed absolutely fine since arriving. Can't see the issue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATB Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 If you're always talking bollocks you'll get slaughtered, people with reasonable points and good arguments disagree all the time. There's a big difference there. Truth, as always, lies somewhere in the middle. He's not particularly quick, but he's certainly not "slow". He hasn't defended particularly well at times, but he's not a bad defender. There's definitely merit to the argument that he should only get better in time, too. His start could probably be filed in the "solid, if unspectacular" folder for me at least. I still don´t think I make more "bollocks comments" than some. I can agree though that sometimes I do Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 He's a good player and has performed absolutely fine since arriving. Can't see the issue. This. He's been naive a few times so far (particularly the Agbonlahor pen and a few rash attempts at tackles in the box yesterday) but once he settles into the frenetic pace I have no doubts he'll be a fine player for us. He's fantastic going forward and his touch and passing are a massive upgrade on Simpson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Absolutely brilliant last night, his game gives us so much compared to what we're used to. We don't play with wingers, but the La Bomba Lads we have in our fullback positions gives us width and they were quality last night, as were the rest of them. I injured my back a week ago, and not even a wheelchair could take the grin off my face that i have now. Im gonna enjoy it.

Guest bimpy474 Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Well after 4 games trying to get used to the Premiership i think we should sell him. His sloth like reactions are embarrassing tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you go to matches/watch on tv hoping that players will confirm your doubts? I certainly don't. I think you have completely misunderstood me here. The "prove me wrong" was about players like Evra that has been poor with high expectations. I would say that Obertan was the same case. Poor with attributes but I still had some hope for him to improve. He was a case of "prove me wrong" but he never did. I don´t mean Debuchy should prove me wrong. Regarding Debuchy btw, I only said that he has looked slow, and hasen´t played as good as I have hoped (didn´t said that first though), but that doesn´t mean I´m saying he has been poor. He has have a solid start and I think this game against Chelsea was his best so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATB Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Jesus Christ. Santon got done a few times yesterday and he is probably the quickest player in our squad. It can happen. Just because you are fast your not a good defender. But it´s definitely a good attribute to have, especially as a fullback (has absolutely nothing to do with Debuchy now) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's fantastic going forward and his touch and passing are a massive upgrade on Simpson. You can just see by watching him play that in 10-20 games time he's going to be quality. Like you say, little niave at times and couple of daft bookings but you can see his quality. The first 11 is really starting to take shape. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Gonna put this in here as well, would love it to get sung at the match. (To the tune of It's Tricky by Run DMC): Mathieu, What a guy, He's proper class, His mate's Cabaye. DEBUCHY! DEBUCHY-BUCHY-BUCHY-BUCHY! Quite proud of that.
