Kanj Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 He's one of our best players currently. One of the first names on the teamsheet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Amazing how important this guy is to our team this season, shows when he's not there, that constant threat from his flank, his blood and thunder defending and think his desire to attack all the time transmits to the whole team. Future captain if he can stop getting red cards too often (assuming we don't sell him stupidly) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 I hope MYM gets to go back to CB and Taylor is the one dropped but cannot wait for Debuchy to be back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incognito Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 I'm 43 started playing 11 a side at 7 years old, that kind of tackle has never been acceptable, not ever. Of course it has. Tommy Smith, Ron Harris and the like made careers from them kind of tackles.Playing the ball without touching the opponent; nobody would bat an eyelid 20 or 30 years ago.Sliding through players to get the ball, as long as the ball was played, nobody batted an eyelid, indeed them tackles were even applauded. No room for it in this day and age though and that's why I agree he had to go. Two footed jump ins have never been acceptable, going through the back of a attacker was something i used to get away with, also as you pointed out sliding through someone to get the ball. The key here is he never slid through some, or went throught back of someone. He jumped two footed, launch himself in a ridiculous tackle. Would have been red years ago, not just now. 30 years ago you wouldn't be sent off for intent alone. Which Debuchy rightly was . You wouldn't get a straight red without contact to the player. No way.

Deuce Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Please him on right and Mbiwa to replace Taylor This is the logical choice. However, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiemag Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Hope to God he doesn't stick with Saylor and Willo. Play Mbiwa centrally You pleb. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujpest doza Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 How come Raphael only got a yellow yesterday for doing exactly the same thing as Debuchy including getting all of the ball and none of the man?? Consistency???? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 How come Raphael only got a yellow yesterday for doing exactly the same thing as Debuchy including getting all of the ball and none of the man?? Consistency???? Thought the same when I saw that. Only difference may have been that Debuchy made the tackle head on, while Rafael came in sideways?

I hadn't even thought of this I'd be very surprised if Taylor wasn't now dropped considering Mbiwa has hardly put a foot wrong and formed a good partnership with Willo whilst Colo was out injured previously. Especially since Taylor being at fault for the West Ham goal. Pardew stated how hard it was for him to drop Mbiwa when Colo came back, can't see him doing it for Taylor.

BrettNUFC Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 The Vidic sending off was a tad harsh too In slow motion it looks like a simple yellow but in real time it looks reckless and nasty. Can't complain over the red, like. Rafael was a stone wall red. Cahill had every right to be going mental with that sort of tackle flying around near his ankles.

Skeletor Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 There's also been rumours we've been trying to offload Saylor. It'll be a sickener if he keeps his place given the form of Willobiwa this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Taylor's blown his chance imo, has to be Mapou and Willo Of course it does but i'm still absolutely convinced Pardew will drop Mapou. He shouldn't have dropped him before and i see no reason why he won't do it again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
