plaidharper Posted November 8, 2018 Report Share Posted November 8, 2018 Was critical of him last season as well. Certainly regarding pace and some times positioning. This season he seems healthier and more confident. Can imagine any of us would feel more comfortable next to Zouma compared to Williams. Been really impressed with Zouma but whew Williams was really poor last season, ha. Glad to see Keane get a call up as well. Should hopefully push him even further and help him / us all forget about last season. Kind of shocked how we have gone from CB being a problem position to having a selection problem (between Zouma, Keane, Mina) in just one year. Well done Brands.

Bailey Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 Any one else concerned that he is turning crap again? Week after week he is making several small mistakes and now our backs are against the wall he is weaker and less aggressive, almost as if the doubts are creeping in. Dont get me wrong, he is nowhere near as bad as last season but when your in a hole you need leaders and he is weak. nyblue23 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haiku Posted February 2, 2019 Report Share Posted February 2, 2019 He's just an average mid-table defender. Has his ups and downs in his form, but with him in our lineup we will never ever break in top 6, if that's still our long term ambition. Yet I'm not sure where we are looking at.

I'm not going to revert to the Pete0 school of dedicating my life to proving it to everyone else but I've never been convinced by him, his reading of the game and concentration are suspect for me and you can't affird that in a CB at the top level.

I don't think he ever turned good he just set the bar so low last year he's had a bit of leeway this year for putting in below-average performances as we know how dogshit he can be. Only game I can think were he's looked good enough and that was against Brighton. Had Murray in his pocket beat him for strength and aggression. One of three players that need replacing for us to look more like a team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about that, I thought he was playing very well for a good spell of games but since the mistake in the Leicester game he has started to unravel and more mistakes and indecision are creeping in again.

Romey 1878 Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 It's not helping him, or anyone for that matter, that our defence is having to play all of our football because there is absolutely fuck all in front of them. Keane and Zouma are our fucking playmakers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn balor Posted February 3, 2019 Report Share Posted February 3, 2019 Why was Walcott playing yesterday anyway? It was my lads birthday so I wasn’t paying much attention I’m that apathetic lately. Got like that under the last four managers. I remember posting on this site when he was born! Nine years ago !! Fuck me where does the time go?

Gwlad Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 I think he does. Ffs he's played badly and taken a lot of stick but I'm happy to have him in the team right now and his England performance wasn't too shabby either.

Palfy Posted March 29, 2019 Report Share Posted March 29, 2019 What idiot made him feel like he belongs, he’s far too slow and hasn’t got the ability to read the game and position himself to make up for his lack of pace, very average player and not welcome in any team with designs of top 6.

I certainly can I hadn’t finished counting I was busy at work, but I’ll send you 3 and 4 later if you like, strange you down vote what I’ve said when you have pretty much been saying the same thing yourself.

He was very good beginning of the season then took a dip along with the whole team but still miles better than any other defender (Digne aside) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
