toon25 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I'd love to see some of the aforementioned binned off, but Longstaff aside - and that's only via a Rafa connection - it says a great deal that nobody is coming in for the likes of Ritchie and Shelvey.

Dandy Man Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 6 minutes ago, reefatoon said: Totally agree. There was an example in yesterdays game around the 70 minute mark, where they were attacking and were a few yards outside of our box and Shelvey was standing there bent over with his hands on his hips. Now this is against a lower third division team and is unforgivable for me as their player just went by him with the ball. I think Shelvey tends to get off a bit light and escape criticism given the glaring deficiencies elsewhere and because he can pick a pass or hit a shot. But it is criminal the amount of times he does that hunched over shite pretending to want to close a man down when really he has no intention of doing so. If we are going to have him starting every game in that deep lying playmaker/quarterback role till end of season then it's not going to end well, has shown time and again he hasn't got the stomach for a battle.

And most of these loopy sideway passes he plays down the wings could be played by Schar. Problem is he’s so deep that we get no creativity in midfield as a result, and when we lose the ball they run through our midfield because his starting position is so deep.

Can't see Burnley selling him to a relegation rival. Weird one. Unless Wood kicks up a massive fuss and does everything he can to force a move, I just can't see it.
