KaKa Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Ben Arfa doesn't help him much has to be said. That whole left side is a mess. Ben Arfa doesn't defend his full back that well. Tiote charges around and is out of position defensively. To top it off Debuchy is more of an attack minded player than a defensive one. Ugly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Should have got Clyne when we had the chance, this club jut won't look seriously enough at what is on offer on these shores. It's an utter joke. Cunts haven't learnt their lessons, either. Fuck knows what utter rubbish we'll get from Ligue 1 next providing Gomis/Thauvin fall flat.

Guest bimpy474 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Debuchy was as bad as I've seen from a NUFC player in a long time. Ramage? Ramage never had a game like that, man. Ever. West Ham at home, 2-2, defending on the wrong side for one of the goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Needs to have a total worldly vs West Ham to repair some of the damage. If he's only here as his mate is then it's showing. If he doesn't i'd drop him, honestly i'd drop a lot of people. Far too many players playing at the moment based on rep and better performers are benched.

He was the worse outfield player possibly apart from Tiote. I'm someone who defended him to no-end.

Pilko Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 He looks like a red card waiting to happen in basically every game. Great sort to have alongside New Radgy Colo and Unpredictable Geordie Hero Taylor in defence. We won't trouble that fair play table... again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuy_O Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 He's joined a struggling team and has generally bottled it thus far. Still maintain he's far better than he's showing but he needs to take a look in the mirror. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been a top player in France for some time and he caught people's eye at the World Cup in the summer - which priced us out of our move for him. No fucking way you could predict how poorly he's started here for us. Ahh, you can never change your opinion on the Internet Kanji Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElDiablo 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.

May be churlish to say, but might have helped if he'd come into a team confident off the back of finishing 5th. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably why i was so impressed with him when i saw him for Lille ( and France to some extent), a team that likes to be on the front foot and plays positively. He's been gash since we got knocked out of Europe though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
