Jonjo Shelvey (now playing for Burnley)


Recommended Posts

Feel sorry for this guy. One week he is alongside the raving lunatic that is Tiote. The next he is alongside the invisible coward Gini. The guy has no chance.

 

He's got Colback to look forward to next week  :lol:

Them 2 will say the same thing about Shelvey.

Shelvey should just be moved forward and played behind the striker. At least he can shoot the ball, and can play a through pass. No one else there is doing a damned thing. This team is so shit man.

I think he's flat out our best footballer (on the ball) at this point in time. Which isn't saying much, but at least he controls the ball well and can pass it with a degree of talent and intelligence, something you can't really say for anyone else. He's going to be inconsistent or anonymous every other week because if he wasn't he'd be playing for a bigger/better team.

 

I hope he stays in the Championship so we can build a team around him. Get some pace up front and players who like getting in behind and he'll be ace. Realistically though he'll be off.

I just find it so laughable that we bought him and Townsend to add some British grit and determination, and both players lack of such qualities is what probably led to their clubs getting rid of them in the first place. Carr and McClaren played a blinder there.

Normally captain should either go to an outstanding leader or else someone who is at least respected by all. We definitely don't have a leader and I doubt any of our players are universally liked either

Lascelles will end up being club captain eventually.

 

A picture tells a thousand words...

Swansea haven't looked back since getting shot.

 

It's something someone mentioned on our forum, Shelvey being in the team forced Siggy to be moved from his best position, since Shelvey's gone Siggy has had the run of his best area of play and returned to his best form.

I honestly thought Shelvey would save your season as he is a very good player when his mind is right.

 

Monk lost his job though by trying to build a team around him.

 

What really makes me hate him is his final month when he got a strop on, he made zero effort and it could be seen, he stated he wanted out because he was dropped, the truth was he was injured for a game and refused to be on the bench the next game and after that he decided he wanted out and showed how unprofessional he is on the field of play.

 

He threw the game against Palace and went through the motions against Oxford, watching a 4th division player as he run past him to score.

 

Such a waste of talent, why couldn't someone who gives  a damn be given that talent.
