Ketsbaia Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 I like them as a partnership, would like to see us stick with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveMc Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 How was the CB pairing? Both looked good individually. Still a couple of clear headed chances for them mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 How was the CB pairing? Both looked good individually. Still a couple of clear headed chances for them mind One of them was due to poor positional sense on Colo's behalf which allowed Nolan to sneak in than actual lack of aerial ability tbf. Thought they looked very good myself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ally Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I've not been impressed with MYM to date but he was good on the whole yesterday. Hopefully him and Colo get a good run together so that when Mr Newcastle is back he remains firmly on the bench Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Anyone going to mention how crap he was yesterday? Very slow and casual on the ball. Could've given away a penalty too. Wasn't a calming influence at all. Boumsong-esque that performance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Anyone going to mention how crap he was yesterday? Very slow and casual on the ball. Could've given away a penalty too. Wasn't a calming influence at all. Boumsong-esque that performance. He was shite, especially in the first half. Both good and Dummet looked like the senior players while he and Debuchy played like kids. It might just be Dummet & good know that level better so were ready for it.

The College Dropout Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I thought Debuchy did well in the air. I agree - perhaps Good/Dummet have that advantage. Still.. MYM was very poor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 He looked like he had earned the right to have time on the ball and take as many touches as he wanted but that being said it was a total makeshift side. Better performances come from an understanding between the team and that comes from game after game along side the same players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Played poorly, not worried in the slightest though, he'll be a class player for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andybiotics Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Thought he had a shocker last night. Easily his worst game for us. Looked very shaky, and it was actually Good who seemed like the first teamer full of confidence, whereas Yanga looked like a nervous rookie. I think Yanga is probably a better defender than Taylor, but last night he looked League 2 standard. Don't know what went wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I thought Debuchy did well in the air. I agree - perhaps Good/Dummet have that advantage. Still.. MYM was very poor. It was a good sample of the lower leagues for Debuchy, still wasn't overly impressed with him for someone of his experience but I'm hoping there's things he can take with him in to Fulham. He took a bit of a beating in the first and and didnt react, that's a good sign as I've been worried about his temperament. MYM was very poor, but he was taken on Colo's job, and colo with all the class he has finds it tough to keep everyone in order at the back so hopefully some experience for MYM there.

Willow Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Anyone going to mention how crap he was yesterday? Very slow and casual on the ball. Could've given away a penalty too. Wasn't a calming influence at all. Boumsong-esque that performance. He had a shite game, that's just a fact but we all know he's a reet canny player. All other times I've seen him he's been quality, so I'll just mark down last night as a blip for him. As others have said, Good and Dummet had a very promising game.

The College Dropout Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Worst of all, I saw none of his supposed great qualities yesterday. On the ball - useless. Pace - only to make up for his poor play/positioning. At least with lads like Marv and Bigi i've seen something from them in terms of class. This lad? Nothing so far.

Jimburst Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 So you did see his pace then? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Not really tbh. But i've seen it in other games. I'm one of the least biased posters on this board. I have no dislike for any players nor any favourites. I just judge them based on what I see and not because they've won a few caps for France. It's a pattern on this board where I point something out and i'm told i'm wrong for weeks. Until the penny finally drops and it's obvious to everyone. Happened with Santon, Colo, Ciise and Sissoko and if Mapou keeps playing like this it won't be long before people actually see what's happening on the pitch.

Teasy Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Amazing, must have seen only his bad games or something. EDIT: What happened with Santon, Cisse and Sissoko BTW? Also what exactly are you claiming here?, that he's not playing well and if he continues not to play well people might not like him? That's hardly a judgement of a player, more just totally obvious. If you really think you're such a great judge of player who's always right then give us a actual judgment on Yanga-Mbiwa and we'll see in a year or so.

KDT Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Obviously TCD should be scouting for an elite level club, being able to give comprehensive judgements on players after watching them for 10-15 games is pretty impressive. Nothing like giving a group of newly acquired players an extended period before writing them off. You've got to remember the team and atmosphere they are playing in currently also.
