Menace Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 All our CB's are vastly overrated but I think this chap is the most overrated out of them all. He's a shadow of the player he used to be - not completely his fault considering how our physio department has handled his recovery, but still.

John P Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 There was just absolutely no need. Why give the ref even a chance to consider a penalty in that situation. It's clearly a foul, often not given, but it's absolute idiocy to pull someone's shirt like that in the box Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duo Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 This lad was class when he first came - unfortunately since his ACL injury he's been very stop/start - hasn't been able to get a run of games. He's also coming into a poor Newcastle side. Midfield is giving the back four no protection. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shays Given Tim Flowers Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 At a princely 6ft I’m the tallest member of my teams back line which often means I’m marking the opposition’s tallest player. I might do some pulling when no one’s looking but if I’m a good deal taller than the lad I’m marking and it’s a fucking throw in, I don’t really need to grab a handful of them. Moronic.

stozo Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 I think in a normal season, or even in a match we didn’t lose, people would be a bit more level headed about Botman today. Largely very good and then had 1 second of madness. He’s very clear got hold of him because he’s expecting the attacker to back into him and doesn’t realise quickly enough the attacker is going short. Massive mistake but he’s still a very good centre back for us and will be for long time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimbo Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 I was surprised he was given a new contract tbh. I bet he’s on decent money as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't want to let yet another player we've paid money for walk away was the driving factor I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Just watched the lowlights to see who I could apportion the primary blame to for their second. I'm now looking at you, Sven. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 This lad was awesome in the LC Semi at the Emirates; hadn’t played for a while and was unbelievable. Fast forward and he looks finished, his body has given up and he’s lost his confidence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 2 hours ago, El Prontonise said: Ramsdale for me. Standard floated ball to the back post that he's rooted to his line for. There's definitely an argument that Pope goes for it and fucks up, but I cannot stand 'keepers that stay on their line like Ramsdale does, it's probably the number one thing I need to see in a 'keeper to think they're good.

Kid Icarus Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 FWIW I think you can point at a few for tgat second goal, it's what makes the entire thing so tragic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wong989 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 I thought this lad was going to be an absolute top tier centre back, our best ever. The injuries seem to have affected his confidence and judgement, which he couldn’t afford with his lack of pace. Massive shame. Hopefully it turns around Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moose Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 He's far from the worst of our problems but I feel like he's still dining out on his imperious 22/23 season. He's very overrated, as are all our CBs, by and large Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
