Jonjo Shelvey (now playing for Burnley)

Pretty obvious that we were sussed after our initial run of good form like.

 

We'd have probably got similar results but for Lascelles' injury.

 

A couple of results maybe, but we couldn't hit a barn door doing that awful run minus 2-3 games.

I don't think a lot's changed tbh, we scored two against Bournemouth, but they pretty much put them in the net for us. The goal against Man U was the first decent one I've seen us score for a while, and that was from a set piece.

Don't agree with that at all myself, we've never changed the way we've played and we've never really stopped creating chances either. We just stopped taking the chances when we needed them because our strikers are shit.

We were mainly scoring from set pieces which teams cottoned onto, Lascelles won 2 games in a row iirc. Scored 1 since then I think. Ritchie had like 4 or 5 assists.

 

It just wasn't a sustainable way to win games. And Lascelles isn't Sergio Ramos so it wasn't going to be a regular thing anyway :lol:

Shelvey's obviously in a different class, but it helps that Diame is decent on the ball when he's on form, that gives Jonjo a lot more options in midfield when they are paired together.

Best player in the team. Should be at the WC imo.

 

Is there a better passer of the ball in the likely England midfield? Not for me there isn't.

 

No there isn't but being a midfielder is about much more than just passing.

 

However, he should at least be in consideration. We aren't blessed in that position.

2 home games in a row he has absolutely bossed it. Another fine performance. It seems him and Diame need each other...

100% agreed. I was thinking more in terms of him being an attacking option off the bench offering something the likes of Dier or Henderson can't.

Let’s not get carried away FFS :lol: he’s had 2 very good games lately but mainly been rank to average this season. If he goes to Russia and starts a game I’d be wanting a game... Henderson is a much better player for example and Liverpool missed him today.

I’ve got the real life Viz Fat Slags who sit behind me and the one I’ve named Shaz absolutely hates Shelvey. He must have rubbed her up the wrong way down the Bigg Market. If it’s you and you’re reading this will you please just stay in The Bee Hive and save my ears from bleeding anymore.
