Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa joins AS Roma then Lyon

What on earth is your point? :lol:

 

That our main problem is lack of a defender with aerial prowess, and we don't have one. So it's pointless blaming defenders for not winning aerial tussles when it's not what they are good at. Unless that defender is a 6ft 2" giant with "leadership" credentials like Mike Williamson.

All your CB's should be able to control and pass a football but it's blatantly not f***ing happening at NUFC. 

 

True but what's more important for that position?

 

Jamie Carragher was okay at best on the ball but imperious in the air (among other things).

 

It's wierd how biases work on this forum. It's a crime for Paul Dummett to have fairly basic technique and all-round play even though he's a fairly solid defender. But it's perfectly fine for our striker to contribute little in all-round play.

Dummett gets criticism for not being a lb on a month of Sundays.

 

May be wrong but he'd never played centre back before the Mackem Derby and has only played a few times there since hasn't he? ???

 

He's a shit left-back who has a few qualities that make him passable as a centre-half.

Better than Williamson at centre half already. Never really rated Carragher meself. A shit John Terry.

Carragher is immortalised as some kind of god by the media as with every other Liverpool player, but 'average at best' is a new one.

 

I don't think he was an exceptionally good player anyway, definitely not one to be remembered as an example to CBs the world over.

 

Average at best was maybe a bit much.
