Man of the Match at Blackburn

[marcopaulo]

you questioned how many saves he made rather than actually praise him for a good performance...you said the ball just hit him with one save that you remembered when he clearly motioned his hand towards it to save it..that to me is suggestin you thought he wasn't that good

So you admit you added words to my post then? When in fact i at no stage mentioned he wasnt good?

 

My point being of why i questioned it was everyone was going on about this sensational performance and i actually give him an 8 in my rating post but i couldnt remember many saves from him and apparently no-one else can

As for the Formica save, its 1 of them that goes down as a 'great save' but he knew little about it and he would admit it. Good on him for being in the right position though

Kineck, will you lot get a room.

[evertonblue]

Baines for me. His average games are still good. Cahill we missed until he came on. He was brilliant for a short time.

[Bill]

I think if these stupid arguments develop between our members we might have to close this thread, might be a good idea just to leave the poll open so you can Vote, but are unable to leave any comments.

 

Theres no need to leave comments in here anyway because they are all left on the Matchday thread, so please cut down on the bickering or you will lose this thread.

Tim Howard by a country mile not just the penalty save but the one where he had dived to his right but still got his leg in the way was world class.

[troy8]

Easily Howard.

[JamesSmurfy]

howard without a doubt, thought the whole game was stale and boring. the lads need a kick up the arse!!

[Hafnia]

Howard.

 

Arteta? A player with his talent and experience was in a midfield that was overrun. He did nothing to influence any stability, composure, nor did he do anything of note apart from score a penno. Considering he insists on taking every dead ball it was not surprising. Felli was very poor too.

 

Baines for me was the best outfield player.

Thought Baines was one of the worst, everything went down his side and he hit Samba with every cross

I didn't pick up on that. There was not one outfield player that did well, Cahill gave the ball away that led to the penalty for example. Or was it Billy?

Cahill it was, he attempted to pass back to Fellaini then Jags made a mess of his clearence

[Avinalaff]

Give it Arteta purely for his coolness

 

In your ratings thread, you gave Howard an 8, and Arteta a 6 lmao.

Did Arteta get better as the weekend went on?

Yes he was shit then scored the winnner werent you watching

[Avinalaff]

Yep, I watched. Needs to up his game like many.

I think we only have a few lads playing ok at the mo. We're going to struggle if we don't raise the bar.

 

Just watched United.

Movement etc was just awesome. I think Wenger will up his defender stakes. Maybe he'll take Nev and make you smile lol.

only 1 choice here, take a bow T-How....

Barkley has 2 and he was shocking

[StevO]

It's people's opinions, were all entitled to them.

[Hafnia]

First half Barkley did some good things, great work to get a shot on target, put an excellent ball in that Leon headed over. No way motm, given tims performance, bar his mistake an ok performance. Just to remind - he's 17

[Avinalaff]

I reckon some are opinions, while others are just after attention.

 

You can clearly see that the majority gave their vote to Beckford:

• 24 Howard
  
• 03 Baines
  
• 05 Heitinga (Beckford 85)
  
• 06 Jagielka
  
• 15 Distin
  
• 18 Neville
  
• 10 Arteta yellow card
  
• 20 Barkley (Cahill 53)
  
• 21 Osman (Bilyaletdinov 62)
  
• 25 Fellaini
  
• 28 Anichebe
  

Baines on the other hand was clearly unappreciated.

some are opinions, some are just plain wrong.

obviously mine are not the wrong ones.
