AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Quality except outsmarted for the goal. In my mind there's absolutely no doubt that he's a fantastic player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
durhamunigeordie Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 He was hobbling around a bit before that. I think that had a little to do with it - he just kind of collapsed unable to follow the run. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Yeah shame about the goal but an excellent game from him. Shame he missed the derby as he probably would have helped us alot. When he's switched on and alert he reads the game very well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 I haven't gotten a chance to see the match yet as I'm travelling for work, but sounds encouraging. He seems to be playing really well with Mike Williamson; assuming Willo is organizing the back line as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 He needed that after the Everton & Liverpool games. Should do his confidence good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 We should call a spade a spade. He had a good game apart from being at fault for the goal which lost us the game. Should be a good experience overall for him. Obviously he needs as many games as possible if he is to replace Coloccini at the end of the season.

Should be a good experience overall for him. Obviously he needs as many games as possible if he is to replace Coloccini at the end of the season. He surprised me a little last night. Thought he anticipated well. For their 1st goal, Williamson was absolutely nowhere and i think when the front post is as wide open as that, a good forward is probably going to get a shot on target, which he did.

Mole_Toonfan Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Calling a spade a spade, he was exceptional last night save for a massive lapse which cost us a goal. You could say the same for Liverpool until the red card which cost us the game arguably. Its quite a big thing to just say he was excellent except for this one thing.... needs to cut out these silly errors so we can talk about he was excellent and they are no exceptions. Also he plays a lot better with Williamson than any other partner but i'm not that surprised. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

themanupstairs Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Calling a spade a spade, he was exceptional last night save for a massive lapse which cost us a goal. Tbh I don't even think it was such an obvious "lapse". Forwards always have an advantage over defenders in general, as most of the time, defenders are having to react to their movement or ball control. I reckon he expected Dzeko to cross the ball high and lost his footing when the cross came low for Negredo to steal a march on him and tuck it away. It was very good forward play, and sometimes as a defender you can't legislate for that. To say he cost us a goal/the game is harsh, as it could also be argued the cross shouldn't have been allowed to come in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crumpy Gunt Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Calling a spade a spade, he was exceptional last night save for a massive lapse which cost us a goal. He had a hand in both.. he stepped forward too far for the 2nd and Dzeko ran into the space he deserted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a hand in both.. he stepped forward too far for the 2nd and Dzeko ran into the space he deserted. And Debuchy continued his run and played him on-side. As I said with my previous post, both goals were quality coming on the back of excellent forward movement and final passes. I thought the back line was pretty solid throughout. We weren't under much pressure because we were organized and sussed out danger at an early stage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
