pete0 Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 Galloway and Lukaku were the only two who deserve a wage today. Should have give the kids ago instead of the rest. Dead rubber game, but after a bad season the fans deserved a better send off than that. Quote
JoeQuince Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 Galloway. Worked his dick off for the team today. Looking forward to seeing his continued development. I don't feel like I'm being hyperbolic here, but I think he will turn out to be a perfect partner for Stones. Quote
Shukes Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 (edited) Galloway. Tackled well, pushed forward and wanted it. Stones also had a good game.. Made some great last-ditch tackles. Ossie after that. Tried to lead by example and showed class in parts. Can't think of any others that performed. Lukaku had no service...and he isn't good enough to make it happen alone. Mirralas did the hard parts well, but as always failed miserably on the simple. Coleman was reluctant to run at players. McCarthy didn't turn up Barkley....really worried after this season. Not sure he has the heart for football at this level. Everyone else were just forgettable. Edited May 24, 2015 by Shukes Quote
MC11 Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 From what I've seen of Galloway..... He's no Garbutt and never will be. If his main position is centre half then fair do'a but you can see why he's a centre half. His effort was faultless but he doesn't look to have much technique. Quote
Shukes Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 I thought he had a really good game and didn't look out of place at all. Agree he will make a good CB, but a decent left back as well. Quote
Romey 1878 Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 I thought he had a really good game and didn't look out of place at all. Agree he will make a good CB, but a decent left back as well. Our phenomenally intelligent manager probably only sees him as LB and he will be our back-up LB next season. Or maybe he can continue being a sentimental prick and give Unsworth a go. Quote

Not sure he has the heart for football at this level. Everyone else were just forgettable. I don't think it's that Barkley doesn't have the heart. I think it's that he is having a tough time coping with the pressure our fans and the media have put on him. He tries too hard to be the player everyone has said he's destined to be, rather than just finding his own game and being comfortable in it. When he fucks up, the crowd screams for his head. You can visibly see him lose his cool. Then we have those fans who are convinced he's not "got it," and there are those who say he's going to be our savior. What's the kid supposed to think? Sadly, I have to wonder if he would be better served by going to a club where he isn't expected to be the Scouse Jesus and can just develop his game, without the weight of saving the club on his shoulders.

Shukes Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 It's sad but true Joe. I think we can all be overly critical sometimes because we want him to succeed so much. Quote
Cornish Steve Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 I thought Galloway was MotM for some last week? He doesn't show in the season's totals. Quote
MikeO Posted May 24, 2015 Author Report Posted May 24, 2015 I thought Galloway was MotM for some last week? He doesn't show in the season's totals. My mistake, I rushed it because I got home just as the second half was starting (and I always do the update at half-time), I'll correct it . Quote
Cornish Steve Posted May 24, 2015 Report Posted May 24, 2015 Many thanks, Mike, for running MotM all this season. That must make you MotF. Quote
