Mick Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 We shouldn't be too hard on Dummett, he could turn out to be a decent player for us. At this time he's learning the game and limited, he's probably due some time away from the starting 11. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 We should just buy a proper LB instead of picking up cheap crap for £2m. Considering the love you have for Ligue 1 among other leagues, you must have seen a lot of Haidara even before he joined us. Care to elaborate why he is cheap crap? What? Was a genuine question. Haidara for me has looked the better of all three LBs we have. When? Seriously. Everyone says this, but aside from a nice stroll against 9-man Stoke, he's done absolutely nowt for me. Well I still think Santon is the better player but he's had an abysmal season while Dummett is absolute garbage. Haidara looked good in the Stoke game and has had other decent cameos for the side tbf. Nice Avatar Felipão. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Williamson gets away with it because he's a centre back. It's crucial for a full back to be comfortable on the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughesy Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Haidara's no better, unless being French makes him better. Haidara is far better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 The difference with Santon is that he's had about 80 more Premier League games than the two of them put together, and however many Serie A games too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughesy Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 If anyone can legit say they think Dummett will have a successful career then fair play, but he has none of the tools required Exactly - I can't think a single thing he does well. He is slow and has poor technique. He just doesn't look like a footballer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Haidara has way more potential. We'd get far more in the long run by giving him a go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Haidara can cross a decent ball. I know that's not a requirement for a team with no strikers in the box so I guess Dummett would be a safer bet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andymc1 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 If anyone can legit say they think Dummett will have a successful career then fair play, but he has none of the tools required As long as I've got a hole in my arse he'll not be good enough for Premier League football. Absolutely ridiculous that he his playing in this league really and I've said it for a long time. Scored a goal against Liverpool, got a contract and hasn't put in a good performance since. I'll never forgive him for Sunderland away this year, and all this "but he's a local lad" is a load of shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll never forgive a young full-back making his third or fourth PL appearance for being pressed into service out of position in a derby game? Christ.

Pilko Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 So, suppose we put Haidara in. Will you all be so fast to write him off if he's not set the world alight in 7 or 8 games in this woeful side?

It's evident we need a proper left back but for the time being Haidara needs to be ahead of Dummett. Santon has had a really poor season but it'll be interesting to see how comes back after a break - he's played a lot of football for a young full back.

Feels bad saying this but right now I feel like Dummett has none of the abilities a modern fullback needs to be good in the Premier League. He'll make a nice career somewhere but it won't be in the top half of the Premier League. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Did someone mention the Liverpool 0-6 in which Haidara was personally responsible for everything wrong on the day? Think he even knocked a kid over driving the bus en route to the ground. :lol: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussiemag Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I'd like to see Haidara get the run of games Dummett has. Dummett has shown nothing to suggest he contains any sort of quality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
