David Icke - Son of God Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Daft for the penalty mind but I'd still pick him over Taylor every day of the week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 It's a tad catch-22. He badly needs games to get up to speed but I wouldn't feel comfortable with him partnering any of our CBs. Might as well do it now though. Nothing to play for in the league. Play Sammy, Gosling and Dummett in that case. Er we did Every game I mean. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiston Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Has to start over Willo or Saylor. He isn't a full back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hatem garrincha Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 He's the best defender in the entire squad but is still benched. His performance today is a detail comparing to the football preconised by the current manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 All based on what he did in France by the way. I've yet to see him perform in our colours like he's a PL CB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Really Ron, man?...You didn't think the Spurs away or Chelsea home match showed that? Interesting. Thought he was brilliant in both matches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might as well do it now though. Nothing to play for in the league. Play Sammy, Gosling and Dummett in that case. Sammy's earned his shirt for now. Good game at Norwich followed by being the best of the worst in the previous two shambling performances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Really Ron, man?...You didn't think the Spurs away or Chelsea home match showed that? Interesting.

Ronaldo Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Really Ron, man?...You didn't think the Spurs away or Chelsea home match showed that? Interesting. Thought he was brilliant in both matches. Yeah he did well in both but I'm not convinced he should be starting yet. If we had a Shawcross to partner him with I'd be fine with it.

Kanj Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Fair enough. I'm a fan of him next to Willo who's a good organizer and shouter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Needs a run of games alongside Williamson, then we'll see the rewards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Needs a run of games alongside Williamson, then we'll see the rewards. yep, shame it won't happen when the spineless cunt of a manager is worried about upsetting taylor/thinks taylor deserves his spot.

TRon Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 The fact that Steven Taylor is ahead of him says all you need to know at the moment Has anyone ever seen Steve Taylor make a tackle? He's great at marking space then throwing himself in the way when the shots are coming in, but I very rarely see him close to the opposition forwards.

huss9 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 he needs a run at centre half. now that we're practically safe from relegation or any kind of ambition, it would be a great opportunity to bed him in for next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Colo will probably be back soon and then it will be him and Williamson until the end of the season. Then Colo will leave and Mbiwa will probably be pushed into a starting role next season, where we could have been giving him important experience for the rest of this.

Ronaldo Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Therein lies the problem, you want to bed him in but the bloke he's replacing will play when fit and you can't play them together. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Therein lies the problem, you want to bed him in but the bloke he's replacing will play when fit and you can't play them together. Yup, and any sensible person would be using the replacement to cover for the person he's replacing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveMc Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 He was in a place a month ago where he was playing regularly and confidently. It has been utterly brainless to set his transition to the league back by benching him and then playing him out of position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley17 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 If he doesn't play regularly the rest of the season we may as well sell him. We've nothing to play for, two limited centre halves who we should be upgrading if we are going anywhere (ha) and the other centre back is the want-away captain. This kid should have the defence built around him due to his age and the money we've paid for him, and if he's really not better than Williamson and Taylor then there's no hope for him anyway. Play him, for fuck sake. I'm not even his biggest fan as he can be very naive at times, but he actually has a chance of improving rather than just being a stop gap. I'd apply the same logic to most of our younger players for the rest of the season - Sammy & Dummett inparticular. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
