The9 Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Jaidhi is the main reason that we started attacking from defence. The odd misplaced pass is expected in the crowded boxes at this level. Rocky Jaidhi Yeah, but at the time he was in 10 yards of space and the pass was aimed 20 yards from the nearest teammate! Other than that though, he was superb, won everything, and "everything" was a lot of stuff in the air on Saturday.
Avenue Saint Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 I remember the time when certain folk were saying seaborne is better than jaidi. I am sure people watch different games on occasions
Roger Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 I remember the time when certain folk were saying seaborne is better than jaidi. I am sure people watch different games on occasions Yes I remember that too. Seaborne for me is probably our worst player. At posh he was shocking and at exeter last season. I dont care what people think if jaidi had played those 2 games we would have won. I think adkins realises since posh that jaidi needs to play as much as poss.

It's a shame he's coming to the end of his career, but he's proving Pardew's constant "he won't be able to play Tues/Sat in succession" wrong as well. Always liked Jaidi, and like I've also mentioned on many occasions, mystified why people think Seaborne is any good....
Barry the Badger Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 A friend said to me Saturday that we needed to find somebody as good as Jaidi in the air but with pace as well. I pointed out that those players are Premiership players. The guy is unstoppable in the air.

Worth mentioning those people are also the kinda people that say we need lambert to work harder. Those players are also in the premiership.
Roger Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 The other thing is it helps fonte. Fonte for me is a second defender ie claus. Jaidi is a first defender like deano or killer. When fonte plays with seaborne he is a bit exposed, ie posh away. Martin for me is better than seaborne.
hamster Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 These are the same people who say our fans aren't very good. These fans are in the Prem too.
Roger Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 These are the same people who say our fans aren't very good. These fans are in the Prem too. A lot of these fans though were responsible for keeping us in the prem too. Them and le tiss. Thats according to matty too, "whenever we were in trouble the fans upped the atmosphere in the crucial games"
The9 Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 Thats according to matty too, "whenever we were in trouble the fans upped the atmosphere in the crucial games" That doesn't actually mean it had any impact at all on the players, and he very noticeably doesn't say it did in that quote. He just says the atmosphere improved.

He just says the atmosphere improved. I just remembered that bit but he did say the fans were a 12th man so there. Jesus you had a bad day mate.

What, so all our matches from that period need to be replayed for having too many players on the pitch ? Bugger. Hang on, does that put us back in the Prem ?

Miltonaggro Posted 12 April, 2011 Posted 12 April, 2011 If Jaidi has another half season with Saints as a regular, we would be the English club for which he has made most appearances! Which is nice...
david in sweden Posted 16 April, 2011 Posted 16 April, 2011 AGREED! of course everyone can be faulted for something they do wrong at some time or another, and if the oppostion have done their homework they'll try to expolit it. But IMHO he (Jaidi) and Fonte are as good a central defensive pair as we've had since our Prem. days.
