Jonjo Shelvey (now playing for Burnley)


Recommended Posts

It’s frightening that in the poll at the top of the page 66% would rather keep him then sell! Shelvey, Ritchie and Gayle have no place in the PL in 2021 like at all. Ashley has killed our fans standards so much that I still see all 3 of them getting hyped up from time to time.

Harsh to group Richie and Gayle with Shelvey.

 

Shelvey is the best of the three that's how bad the other two are.  Disgrace any of them given new contracts.  Gives manquillo a 4 year one not been seen since.  Wants to give clark one who is 31 or 32 and only going to get worse.  Irs a desperate club

To be fair since the break in play from last season Gayle has done a decent job when he’s played, and actually tried.

 

Ritchie and Shelvey couldn’t give a fuck and probably laughed their arses off that they got contract extensions.

100% we only have them contract extension in order to save having to buy replacements.

What's the Foie Gras Fergie got against Ritchie anyway...

 

He only plays him now at LWB. Accepted, Rafa played him there, but 541 with Rafa was at times magnificent, and Ritchie gave us great balance on that left side.

 

Playing LWB now just exposes Ritchie defensivly. He cannot defend space, or one-on-ones, and is a weak link in a very rusty and already disorganised back line.

 

Play him left of midfield instead of Joe, and at least he'd give some balance to the side. He always tries to play forward, and has actually still decent technique, albeit he's slow and can't beat anyone.

 

Playing Joe wide stinks of him having a clause that he has to play. Brucie's already said he can't play up top on his own and he sucks at that, yet now he's a left midfielder...

Ritchie's fucking shite man. More interested in shouting than playing football.

This, fucking selfish aswell.

Instead of passing to someone who is in space, can make a run, or has an opportunity at goal, he’d rather keep the ball or lose possession.

He was good in Championship 3 and a half years ago, that was his peak.

How he still gets games for us and got that contract extension is beyond me.

Steve Bruce has ruined Matt Ritchie. Rafa had him wing back, and I thought he looked good in that position.

 

I see that he tries, but he's another player that's being set-up to fail in this shitshow.

 

 

 

Players Bruce has ruined; Lejune, Schar, S,Longstaff, Lascelles, Hayden, Almiron, Ritchie...

 

Players that Bruce has brought, already ruined/not quite ruined; Steve Smith, that 3rd choice Keeper, nobody, and Hendrick (I think he was already faulty when we got him)

It was mentioned in previous page that Shelvey playing for Swansea against Oxford in fa cup and he just standing up at edge of the box huffing and puffing while Oxford players running past him with ease.

The following week he was a Newcastle player, fucking joke this club and their recruitment

at least ritchie can sometimes take a decent free-kick or corner.

would rather have him in the team than shelvey or joelinton just for that as those 2 dont contribute anything else at all.

 

He’s had two bad injuries since that spell at wing-back and is 31 now. I think he’s finished at this level.
