TRon Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Shelvey's good on the ball, but off it he's pretty useless. His tackling is clumsy and he's not the quickest. But then we had Colback and Anita playing there for most of the season so I suppose beggars can't be choosers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedro111 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 I wasn't that impressed with Shelvey either tbh. He's clearly the best option for that role, but I don't think he's playing well at the moment. Yes, not sure about him myself. Doesn't seem composed enough to me to be the player we need. He was playing so deep today. That was always my complaint with Cabaye. Both players perform far better when they push up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slows things down too much for me its really frustrating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Angry about Atkinson's call to bring the game down when Van Aanholt was laying around for his cramp, and we had a strong counter. The shoulder barge from Mitro. The hours of time wasting by their cunt of a GK. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomson Mouse Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Didn't want Shelvey and hope he goes. Plays Hollywood passes. If he wants to be captain he needs to sort it now. At the moment we need a Speed type character. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimplyAnth Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Think Shelvey wants to play a different game than the one we are playing at the moment, can't blame him really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Shelvey is about the only player who tries to move us forward with the ball he constantly makes runs and shows for the ball. Obviously every now and again one of his passes will be dreadful, but he's by far a better option than any other player we have in that position. What do people want? Colback is shit because he hides and is 'too safe' playing backwards, we finally get a man who constantly shows for it and passes forwards but is shit because not all of them come off.

M4 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 The shoulder barge from Mitro. That was simply shameful. Not even any doubt about one player being behind the other or using the arm, it was straight on shoulder. Horrific call from the ref. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, he takes risks with the ball, trying to play people in behind and looking forward. Yes it is not going to work every time but it is much better than sideways and backwards plebs like what we normally have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robster Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 I feel like a weight has been lifted now the game is out of the way. It's possible that nerves and the occasion got to our players. Now we've got through it, I think we'll start to see some improvements. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he keeps it relatively simple he'll be great but his game suffers because he looks to play the difficult ball too often. Maybe it's not him, maybe it's the shit positional sense of the players around him, I'm not sure it I've never been convinced by him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Happy that the streak is over and happy that we rescued it - that goal could be massive. And the 2nd half performance was so good that I think we could've won it. Quite the improvement on a shocking first half - a pathetic defensive display (especially Colback). I liked Townsend, Mbemba, Perez and was delighted for Mitrovic. Compared to the 80th minute feeling, I feel happy and optimistic. Live to fight another day.

Mattoon Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Not a good performance. Worrying. Pardew, McClaren and Carver would have lost that 3-0 again, this could be a huge turning point for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superior Acuña Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Don't really know what to make of that. Poor most of the game and a defeat would've been terrible. But we have 8 games left, it's so tight and a draw definitely keeps us in with a chance. Looks like we might've brought in Rafa too late though. Our lack of fret up front is very worrying and fear it can't be fixed without new players. To have someone like Defoe even. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Hog Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Colback is so bad that sometimes he looks like the worst player that have ever been in our colours. The only positives about the bloke are that he was free and it pissed the mackems off, other than that there are simply none. I never wanted him, have never liked him (since his '3-0' celebration on the team bus when he was playing for the scum against us) and he has no soul. His ability is questionable at best so I really have no idea as to why we took him on it the first place, other than to wind up the inbreds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
