joeyt Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I'd say Bellerin is the fastest Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 We exist in a league where the likes of Craig Dawson and Phil Bardsley are regular starters at full back, Danny Simpson is about to win the league ffs. Dummett's habit of giving the ball away costs us much less than Janmaat constantly losing his man at the far post, or Haidara simply always being out of position. This this this.

triggs Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Quick attacking players barely ever get the chance in a game to be able to sprint flat out for a decent period of time. The longest sprint players will do in most games is defenders and midfielders running flat out towards their own goal stopping a counter attack. If Sissoko and Dummett for example had a 100m sprint I'm fairly certain Sissoko would win with a good bit to spare Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point, but im sick of debating who is more crap. Who costs us more, Janamaat or Dummet. Would love to start debating who is more awesome, and none of them are.

U2 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 "Fastest player "top speed stats are misleading as there are very few circumstances where a player will be running flat out on a football pitch for a length of time enough to hit their top speed. There will be loads of players that could have easily made that list given the right circumstances in a game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayson Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 We exist in a league where the likes of Craig Dawson and Phil Bardsley are regular starters at full back, Danny Simpson is about to win the league ffs. Dummett's habit of giving the ball away costs us much less than Janmaat constantly losing his man at the far post, or Haidara simply always being out of position. This this this. He could easily have cost us against Liverpool, he was not simply giving the ball away. They got in behind him over 5 times atleast. Darlow pulled off a save from Navas there a week earlier & he was destroyed by a simple dummy in the same game. He's not costing us because others are saving his bacon in some of these games. Other games he looks more assured & tends to get it behind for a corner. Its hardly consistant though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 The run to the halfway line to pass back to the CB or colback drives me spare. Just concedes ground every time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 He's crap, but he's also our best LB. Discussing Mbabu is irrelevant when he seems to be made out of hair gel, like Aarons, Marveaux etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Quality once again and we're unbeaten since he returned from injury after losing pretty much every game without him.

Bimpy474 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Totally agree. Defenders should defend first and Dummett does it very well. That's the problem and why he gets stick, he offers nothing going forward. Right now i'll take the good defender to be honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 He's the best we've got in his position, I hope he's on the bench next season as he'll be good enough as backup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 It's a pretty fucking significant correlation, like. Get a proper defender at LB and you defend better and stop losing games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Also big that there's no Janmaat. We have a back four now committed to defending. Dummett and Lascelles help us so much from aerial threats. Rafa is building a strong base. IMO Dummett is much more of a Rafa fullback than a Janmaat.

STM Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 It's a pretty fucking significant correlation, like. Get a proper defender at LB and you defend better and stop losing games. Agendas man. I think some people view a left back as a Roberto Carlos or Ashley Cole type. Yes that's lovely but players with forward flair and defensive nous are rarer than hens teeth. Most have one or the other. Dummett is an excellent defender and one of the few good attitudes in our squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most have one or the other. Dummett is an excellent defender and one of the few good attitudes in our squad. And some of you absolutely love attacking this straw man. He put in a decent shift today, against a team not nearly as good as the one we played last week. He's decent enough putting the timely leg in, but he hurts us on the ball. I don't expect him to bomb forward like Ashley Cole, but I do expect that he doesn't hoof it downfield when under the slightest bit of pressure. He's got no confidence on the ball and that hurts us defensively just as much as in attack. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
