Heron Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Don't really get why people get so abusive about players such as Clark and Lascelles, etc. They try, they're just not good enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely a thing with this place. Fortunately those who go to the match seem to agree with you. Be interested to know who should've played instead today given Schar wasn't fully fit as well. Maybe people wanted to see Hayden and Krafth at centre back? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, a "he's shite" is fine, no need to get personal at all. Uncalled for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like it's one thing to say they're shite but going down the route of being properly abusive about them is just a bit radge like. I get it's probably just heat of the moment like. However, that's exactly it. Like consider the alternatives, consider the opposition. If players are goving it their best, it's not their fault they're shite.

midds Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 This is the issue for me, I don't think he is doing his best, same with Clark. They're going through the motions and the pair of them are currently paying the worst football of their time here. They're not even doing the basics, mental errors and lack of concentration/bottle at key moments. I'd go as far as to say if the planks appear consistently from Jan we'll go down regardless of who we sign, it's the exact type of CB paring that gets relegated each year, they're dreadful.

They've checked out. Just going through motions picking up their pay cheques. They both know they have no future here, and have no motivation to dig deep and perform right now.

Pilko Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Not as high profile an error as we've seen from our lot as late, but why he drops back away from Cavani rather than staying with him on the goal is absolutely baffling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Still have a fools hope for the lad but the mental side of his game has regressed so much. Bringing in two new CB's is essential over the next few weeks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Maximin Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 He isn’t good enough but on the flip side I forgot Ronaldo was playing for a while until the camera zoomed in on him having one of his customary whinges, so fair play. Same with Schar. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 That’s not his fault. Shelvey should cover up that space instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, Cavani is the striker, who pulled back into the space. Watch it again - Lascelles and Cavani are almost together, Cavani slows his run and Lascelles keeps, essentially, running away from him. Shelvey is, admittedly, jogging back, but he’s watching Rashford Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 You may agree or disagree but IMO these kinda situations a CB would never be able to fully catch up the ST since the ST always have the priority to make the choice, thus instead of blaming the CB for not guessing it right, I believe those who ain’t able to back to their positions should be blamed instead Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 He doesn’t have to guess, all he needs to do is turn his head for a second while the ball is advancing down the right. He doesn’t, because he’s too busy watching the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggs Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 I do think it's more of the midfielders jobs to be picking up Cavani there as he drops off. Lascelles can't just leave the big space in the middle of the goal either Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1tche Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 The way the play bulilt up it would have been very hard for a fast midfielder to get near Cavani to stop him there, let alone Shelvey. Lascelles is fully to blame, it already happened once before and he didnt even look to see where he was and wasnt even close enough to block the shot. If you watch how many times Schar check where Ronaldo in on the same bit of play you'll see what he should have been doing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groundhog63 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 I said straight away. All 3 of them, Lascelles, Kraft and Schar, ran away from Cavani. He didnt drop off, just stood there. schoolboy stuff. Mind so was the bit where Fraser and Kraft (?) both left the ball earlier Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 (edited) This lad is exactly why we're prioritising a central defender over the other pressing need for midfielders. An absolute liability all game and out-jumped with ease for their goal. Total fucking dog shit, always has been always will be.
