Yeah he hits 1/20 long balls that work. Does nothing else at all. No interceptions, no duels, terrible tackles, doesn't free up space, no helping out the defending, why the fuck use him?

We should be winning the second balls though.

Seeing that early yellow and how fucking slow Shelvey is mentally and physically was peak

 

Long pass aside - It's like the motherfucker plays the game with shit internet high latency connection

 

Dipshit should have been rid of eons ago

The game management from Dubravka is also pathetic btw. He quickly rolls the ball put after collecting it when he should've dove on top of it, waste time and let everyone get back in shape. Atrocious stuff.

He did hang onto the ball for about 12 seconds not long before this mind. Was ridiculous. :lol:

After seeing a bit of the old shelvey last match he was back to impress the new manager mode again today. We all know he has it when he applies himself. He is his own worst enemy and it's always a cry wolf case of making us think when is he going to revert back to being half arsed again. 

 

Hopefully not until the summer and he helps keep us up in the meantime.

Aside from the Goal, one of his best performances, covered every inch of the pitch and clearly fought hard to hold the lead.

 

Great performance and I'm not his biggest fan.

 

You could put 4-5 up there with him - I thought Schar was fantastic.

We have a lot of limited players but most of them leave everything on the pitch every week.

Don't particularly want to criticise the match winner today but did  anyone else see his attemptto take the knee before kick off? :lol: He was too lazy to even get that right

He looked like me attempting stretches

I reckon he lacks self believe and confidence in himself tbh. Maybe to do with his looks and the shit he gets on that front.

As someone said above he clearly cares but he's a complex character no doubt.

 

Just glad Howe has him fired up and playing with respect for the shirt, he's covering the ground and putting 100% in.

I think in a team that truly dominated the ball he'd be a handy player - I always remember Southampton away last year, when we were a man up, he controlled that game like it was a night at the Power League. 

 

He'll always have these moments in him, even if the GK has to take the blame somewhat, but it's a case of consistency.

Much more useful since Lard Arse fucked off, in that he seems to be grafting harder and has toned down the needless Hollywood passes.

 

Still, I can't stand him, after years of unreliable, lazy, moody, petulant performances and 1 good game in 12 if you're lucky. His limitations are ten fold and whilst he's a necessary evil at the moment cos he's the only fucker who can pass in centre midfield, I can't wait til we ship him out and upgrade.
