Cheshire Mag Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 That free kick on the edge of the box where he just hopelessly floated it to nobody was a piss take. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
morla84 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 That free kick on the edge of the box where he just hopelessly floated it to nobody was a piss take. agreed, so frustrating. He needs to be burying those, it was a perfect position for him. I've watched him practice shots from that exact location before games, so he should fancy himself from there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 The one at the Gallowgate? If so, I completely disagree. Someone should have been attacking the back post cause the ball in was bang on the money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Ritchie is a waste of a shirt, really. He only offered set pieces and they've gone to shit. He dramatically slows down our attacks... what's the point? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 He's got our most assists this season hasn't he? Waste of a shirt is a bit dramatic to say the least. He's not fantastic at this level by any stretch of the imagination but Howay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 He’s just not contributed anything tangible in recent memory. The Ayoze one wasn’t on him obviously but he’s cracking post, over hitting or under hitting set pieces and is currently keeping in form Jacob Murphy out the team if Gayle or Joselu starts. Just hard to stomach that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I just think we'll be able to unlock space and counter much more effectively with Murphy in the side. Ritchie's play is quite predictable which I think makes it easier for teams to defend against. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Neither are good enough going forward mind if we get taken over. Would like Murphy to go out on loan if we can do that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye same here. I like him mind, he is a threat. He has potential, decision making needs to be better which will come. Again it’s because of his age, lack of experience, that he’s a winger and really needs a long run in the side. I genuinely think he was bought for the long-term, Rafa happy with that thinking there is money for the first-team. Otherwise I do t think he’d have signed him at all. I’d like to see him start wide right every match because he is better than Ritchie IMO and the side badly needs someone who has pace and balls carrying threat down that side.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Ritchie btw, would he make a decent right-back/full-back? Wouldn’t mind seeing it tried out. A poor man’s Milner for Liverpool at full-back perhaps... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinitely Content Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Yesterday, Ritchie was responsible for the best move of the match, where he found Perez running off the shoulder with a lofted through ball. Whilst his numbers may have took a hit in recent months, I still think he contributes enough good moments in games to warrant being in the team, particularly a team whose only aim is to stay in the league. That said, I think Murphy has been really impressive lately, I love his ability to turn out of danger in tight spaces and put us on the front foot in games, so I can absolutely understand people wanting Murphy in the team over him. But I still feel a lot of this Ritchie criticism is a bit dramatic, we're struggling as a team at the moment so singling out one player as being responsible for making us a less potent attacking outfit is a bit simplistic, in my opinion.

Ritchie's play is quite predictable which I think makes it easier for teams to defend against. I'm worried that Murphy might not produce under the pressure of a relegation fight. Ritchie has his faults, but he has a good temperament usually, I think Rafa sticks with him for that as much as anything else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see that point of view against the top teams but Vs Swansea I think we need to be a little bit more expansive in our approach. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
