Jonjo Shelvey (now playing for Burnley)


Recommended Posts

I'd like to see Hendrick along side Hayden. I know its not great but it could be a bit more solid. I'd even try a 4-3-3 with Slongstaff, Hayden and Hendrick.

 

 

Ideally a new CM but I think we have such a backlog of shit CMs we wont get one this season.

100% agree.

Got to wonder why Matty L signed a new contract considering his lack of game time and options.

Isn't he injured?

 

Must have missed that if that's the case.

I used to always stick up for him and I do still rate his vision and passing ability. He just seems to have a terrible attitude and work ethic. Always moaning, blaming someone else, having a go at the ref or the opposition, pointing at someone to do his job, stood about watching the game pass him by etc etc.

 

He often seems to be marking space between players and not actually doing anything. Often loses his man after a few passes. He’s just as lazy and makes odd decisions when we’re in possession, as well. He was stood still edge of the box in a good position in the first half. Didn’t really seem to be demanding the ball. Then when I think it was Manquiilo or Almiron had worked an opening to shift it to him. He just made a pointless run behind two defenders and the move broke down.

 

His lack of mobility and brain dead decision making just seem to be getting worse. Such a shame, as it is a waste of a good technical player. Set pieces are wank, mind :lol:

He's luxury player that isn't "on it" enough for me. I know he can ping a good ball or play a pass others won't, but his deficiencies outway his benefits. Defensively he is useless and his mobility is horrendous. We don't have a strong enough team around him make up for what he can't do.

 

I'm certain we can find someone with better attitude, better team ethic and defensive traits that is still able to move the ball forward and be creative reasonably well... but we won't.

Seen his quotes today?! what a c*** this guy is

 

 

Can not stand him

 

It's quotes like these which makes me dislike him a lot. He's definitely one of the cheerleaders for the club in its current incarnation.

It's ridiculous how important Hayden is to the team because of the basic deficiencies from people like Shelvey.

 

Yeah, I think Hayden is slightly above average but the immobility of Shelvey and single-paced nature of Longstaff means he’s essential at the minute.
