Lush Vlad Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 I really dislike dummett as a lb, but anyone who rates manquillo over him is certifiably insane. At least dummett can defend I prefer players who can play football. Dummett is average at playing slide tackling (usually as a necessity after fucking up higher up the pitch). It's a myth that he is a good defender. Only enhanced because of his shit ball control. I'd say he is comfortably the worst player with the ball at his feet in the entire PL. Manquillo is shit, but not to the level of Dummett. Agree with the ones who would rather see Mbemba play. Dummett currently experiencing the weird scenario where some people think a certain player suddenly becomes better than they are because they have been out injured for some time and/or their replacement is crap. See Rolando Aarons for another example. I'm sure it used to happen with Ryan Taylor, as well. I have to be honest. Despite never rating Dummett or thinking he is going to solve our problems at left back. I do genuinely think he is a better option than Manquillo. Especially in games against better teams. Neither inspires much confidence and it is an area that needs looking at nearly as badly as our options, or lack of, up front and at no.10. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonTastic Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Rafa likes Dummet for his defensive ability and the fact he follows orders well. Because of this he would improve under Rafa so I'm happy if Rafa is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Rafa likes Dummet for his defensive ability and the fact he follows orders well. Because of this he would improve under Rafa so I'm happy if Rafa is. I don't think he was any better at the end of last season as what he was at the start of the season. That was with a season of playing against inferior players where he had time to improve certain parts of his game (control, not shitting himself, crossing, etc).

ujpest doza Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Wasn't it Clark with his arm up? I thought it was manquillo like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 This guy is just beyond awful, hardly looks like a professional footballer. He looks a professional football in terms of general skill/ability. But in practice, defending, attacking, his pap. Defending is absolutely awful. Ineffective in attack.

huss9 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 he's a reserve RB playing at LB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mighty__mag Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Absolutely terrible footballer. Its not an excuse for Rafa to play him again and if he does he's mental. I would sooner see a young academy player out there or just bloody put Mbemba back in. Weird how Rafa treats Mbemba Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest reefatoon Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Mbemba was really solid and played well when at LB. really frustrating that Rafa has took the huff with him again and is persisting with this duffer. Rafa and managers in general are right childish huffy fuckers like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 He’s lowest rung LB for me. I’d be playing Mbemba, Clark, Dummet, Gamez or Haidara over him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keggy_Keagal Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 I'd play Ryan Taylor on one leg or even James Perch ahead of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 He didn't stand out but he wasn't the one at fault yesterday This is what I thought. He's not much of a footballer, but he's not really been our worst player defensively....and he is a defender. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 I'm still yet to see a decent piece of defending by him. All of our left backs since Enrique have been shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 If he was so bad yesterday I wonder what that says about Yedlin, because that's the side all of Watford's goals came from yesterday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 I'd say Ritchie was as just to blame for the goals down our right as Yedlin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yedlin has generally been pretty decent this season, he just had a really bad game yesterday. Manquillo has been pretty much poor in every game he's played.

Yedlin has generally been pretty decent this season, he just had a really bad game yesterday. Manquillo has been pretty much poor in every game he's played. Yedlin has been rubbish in the last two games and that's one game too many for me. Ritchie didn't help, but that doesn't excuse Yedlin, he's the right back so if we're getting murdered down that side, he's got to take the majority of the blame.

Gallowgate Toon Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Shouldn't be starting ahead of Mbemba at all. Don't get it, unless there's been a fallout. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
