Can't quite work out why he isn't played in the middle.  Seems a bit odd not to give him a go there and having him breaking from deep with space to attack.

 

Because his touch is shit and he can't pass or tackle.  So pretty much the same as the rest of our centre midfield :lol:

 

So why fucking buy him then?  We bought him on the back of his performances as a CENTRAL MIDFIELDER then proceeded to play him on the wing.  If you bought Shearer and played him at left back he probably wouldn't look too good either.

 

 

He probably would

We bought him to sell him on regardless of whether he fit the team or not. Pardew had a wealth of talent compared to McClaren and Rafa and fucked it off and pleaded poverty because he's an egotist and a weapons grade penis.

I'm sick of seeing him in the side no matter what he is.  If he's not invisible he's passing the ball to the opposition or running into the opposition.  He constantly breaks moves down and gives us no chance of playing, he's like some kind of midfield destroyer for the opposition or something.

Why dont we have him running into the box from the right to overload the defence like he did against West Ham when we stayed up. He took out two defenders due to his size, yet we've never used that since. Probably as we've never had a left.

Such a talent, yet disaffected like so many

He doesn't have much talent at all like. He looks good sometimes because of his physicality, his actual skill level is poor. I've said this before but I think people overrate his ability and underrate his work rate

He was used slightly differently as well today, playing Wijnaldum wide allowed him to roam around a bit more and link up with Townsend.

 

Yes, he's been played on the left by Rafa and it hasn't done him any favours.

Still a lazy fucker, plenty will be getting carried away after the result, including myself and be patting him on the back here.

changes were needed and that helped, at one point I thought he could have been/should have been pulled off,he was looking gassed.

but fresh legs elsewhere helped. Townsend looked our best player today. and the back four make shift was fairly decent. I would keep those two together now Lascelles & Mbemba let the build a relationship, hope to never see Taylor or Colo on the pitch again.

Nice to see something resembling emotion from him when he scored.

 

Aye. Didn't see much from him in general play today but if he can contribute something in these final few games it would be nice.

 

 

What a state of affairs when this is the hope
