The College Dropout Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Shelvey will automatically be a target for additional criticism because even when he's s*** he still looks to get on the ball and play non-safe passes unlike every other CM we have. He'll be a trget for additional criticism because when he's shit he does't put in much effort off the ball. Same with Moussa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Frustrating seeing this guy blame everyone else around him - even does it when he messes up. Otherwise known as Danny Simpson syndrome. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozy Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 What we need is some nutcase leader who rants and screams until people actually listen. We have none of that, our lot barely even talk to each other. No wonder Shelvey is pissed off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Playing away at Chelsea it might be an idea not to set up a wide open as a nun's knickers. We did the complete opposite of keeping tight for the first 20 minutes. Utterly daft tactics from the manager, the players need to be blamed as well mind. There's no excuse for being unable to do the basics, and Shelvey was right up there not be able to pass it 5 yards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayson Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 What we need is some nutcase leader who rants and screams until people actually listen. We have none of that, our lot barely even talk to each other. No wonder Shelvey is p*ssed off. I said it in the match thread the other day, people have a go at his pointing. Half the time he's just telling the lad on the ball whos available to pass to based on what he can see, hows that being a dick? Its a bit controlling like, but they dont have to listen to him & ultimately he's attempting to help. Him, Townsend & Sissoko are the least for our issues for me. Thats a very good combination of great passing ability & fast runners on the wings. We should be focusing elsewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I think his pointing is fine, it's his reactions to people losing the ball/not seeing him when in space that annoys me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Eh? His passing was completely fine. Except that 5 yard pass he just plopped up for them that they nearly scored from, he was just poor as everyone else in a poor team performance. I do like him though, at the moment he's just part of our general crapness away from home. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I'll leave this one to Hans, as I'm in complete agreement and haven't a clue why anyone's singling out Shelvey from that performance when to me he was probably the only player who could hold their head up high.

I would say most of his passes were ineffectual in the Chelsea game, i don't blame him for that though it was the way the team was set up. But the one where he gave it away just in front of our back 4 was utterly rancid. If Aarons is going get stick for that kind of thing then so should Shelvey. It's a thing we've had for a while now, real lazy passing, Sissoko another who excels at it. Lazy passing, lazy flicks, it runs through the whole side. You can have 99% accuracy but if you give a pass up to concede, well not good is it. Like i say i think he'll be mint, but he's not being helped by the way we're playing away. Also teams aren't going to sit there like W.B.A and West Ham did and let him dicate play with acres of space as we've seen away from home. And that's where McClaren and his limitations come in and kills us. The manager has no idea what to do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I wouldn't blame Aarons tbh, he's not a LB. Maybe I took your post the wrong way, I assumed you were talking about not being able to pass 5 yards in general as I've read a load of that since the match. I thought he was our best player on the whole. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he was our best player on the whole. I should have been clearer Hans my bad, it's a team thing really i'm getting at. In general we have far too many lazy/poor short passes or flicks. He was responsible for one that nearly cost a goall, I was just pointing that out as part of an overall thing. It's something that drives me nuts, i'd say Sissoko is the worst, some of his 5 to 10 yards passes inside as he goes forward...... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BONTEMPI Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 As someone else had suggested before. Maybe have Tiote and Saviet along side him, with him pushing ahead slightly. Might give him the time he needs on the ball. Elliot Jan Taylor Colo Fuck knows Tiote Shelvey Saviet Winny\Perez Townsend Mitro\U Ben I'd be even tempted to swap Winny and Townsends position, as his goal vs Chelsea suggested he can be quite effective there.

Rompe Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 https://twitter.com/JoachimB39/status/700319119237844992 Shelveys effort (and i presume attitude too) in training today reportedly one of the most demotivated the Sandnes Ulf-physio has ever seen.
