Delima Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Anyone else watching? Half Time Spain 2 England 0 Steven Taylor has been very steady. Before the bloody nose Curtis Davies has been good, but after that he seems different - at fault for both goals. David Bentley has been the best English player on the pitch. James Milner has been pretty quiet. Huddlestone seems out of tune with teamates at times. Nigel Reo Coker offers some brawns but little else. Ashley young well contained. David Nugent is very lonely upfront. And Stuart Pearce is always shouting something as usual. Not that Spain is any good. It is a pretty 50-50 match despite of the scoreline.

Fugazi Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Bit harsh blaming the first goal on Davies, Carson was just as much at fault. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Theo Wallcott and Wayne Routledge should be thrown in in the seconed half The line-up seems fantastic,can't understand why are they losing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delima Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Theo Wallcott and Wayne Routledge should be thrown in in the seconed half The line-up seems fantastic,can't understand why are they losing The way they play (lone striker), they should put Lita instead of Nugent. Take Milner off. And maybe replace Davies with Cahill since Davies' nose is bleeding. Lastly either add Walcott in or play both Lita and Nugent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Spectrum Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Shite formation. Players being deployed bafflingly out of position (Milner inside Bentley?!?) Can hardly string two passes together without resorting to an aimless hoof. More effort put in chasing shadows than showing some decent movement. Tamely surrendering as soon as the opposition score. Welcome to my world. PS: Taylor's done alright but Davies has been shite. Could have prevented both goals. Cesc Huddlestone was utter pap too.

Delima Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 lita is a lazy fucker barely moves! He barely moves? I thought he is one of the best player in the second half. Showed some good movements and good positioning. I think he will at the very least achieve as much as Darren Bent. Kevin Doyle, Leloy Lita, David Kitson, Stephen Hunt Bobby Convey, James Harper, Steve Sidwell Nicky Shorey, Alan Bennett, Greg Halford Steve Coppell Reading is going to be a force to be reckoned for quite a while.

Delima Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Delima's final verdict: * 1 Scott Carson - 6 - So so, needs to improve if he wants to overtake Foster and Kirkland. * 2 Justin Hoyte - 6 - So so, better right back than left back. * 6 Curtis Davies - 8 - Apart from the errors that lead to goals, Davies has been pretty impressive. He has good skills and is not afraid to venture upfront (not aimlessly) * 5 Steven Taylor - 8 - Very solid. If we could somehow get Davies in the summer than our central defense partnership is very well sorted for the next decade. Does very well on one-on-one situations. * 3 Andrew Taylor - 5 - Poor. * 4 Tom Huddlestone - 6 - So so, apart from some nice passes. Needs to be significantly tougher, him. * 10 Nigel Reo-Coker - 7 - So so. Pretty physical, and to good effect. But he needs an extra edge if he wants to reach the class of Lampard, Gerrard etc. * 8 James Milner - 4 - Out of position, doesn't see the ball much. * 7 David Bentley - 8 - Best player in the first half. Skillful, audacious, nice pace, and has good vision. * 9 David Nugent - 7 - Isolated up front. So so apart from the well taken goal. Think he needs to be played deeper. * 11 Ashley Young - 5 - Well contained by opposition. * 22 Joe Hart - 7 - Decent performance. * 14 Liam Rosenior - 7 - Decent performance. Going to be Fulham prized asset for a long time. * 15 Kieran Richardson - 7 - Audacious. * 16 Theo Walcott - 6 - A bit light weight. * 18 Leroy Lita - 8 - Very good.

James Beattie is quite a limited footballer, limited to knocking the ball in. Whereas Lita is more versatile than him, though his primary asset is still is finishing. Lita could appear to be "lazy" at times but when he plays he is a much better player than Beattie. My opinions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leroys main asset is probably his positioning and the fact that he knows how to find the net, which is obviously a trait of a good striker. Im just not sure if he can keep it up. It would be so weird seeing him play for newcastle for sure! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
