Horton Heath Saint Posted 7 January, 2013 Share Posted 7 January, 2013 First and foremost we have made huge errors on our goalkeeping choices. This could prove our undoing. Davis has spilled, Gazza comes in and is frightened to death, Boruc strolls in and is still strolling, as for Tottenham incident, disgusting. Full backs, Clynes' height has let him down. Fox has looked nervous, Shaw still raw. Centre backs, Fonte ok, Hoov, no confidence, Cortesse will ship out Seabourne for that fight incident a year ago, he wil not have the club tarnished. Matin, lower league player, Yosh just ok. Midfield, Spider looks the part, Davis is average journeyman player like Hammond, Llalana needs to improve, Guly not premieirship. Cork has come on leap and bounds. Gaston needs to toughen up and not be pushed off the ball too easily. Ridder, just bit part. Ward- Prowse, one for the future. Jason Puncheon, pleasing to watch, great technique, just shoot instead of walking it in. Forwards, SRL puts in shift, lacking support, think he has lost yard of pace since last year. Rodrigues shows lack of Premieirship form, body language not good, needs to move into spaces. Mayuka missed his big chance. Tadanari Lee? Think we are lacking in all departments. 5/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red&white56 Posted 7 January, 2013 Share Posted 7 January, 2013 I think Shaw has shown more in his appearances then to be given a "still raw" assessment. Also has SRL lost pace or is he now playing against palyers who have more pace than in the lower leagues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry the Badger Posted 7 January, 2013 Share Posted 7 January, 2013 Such a lazy football fan opinion to say a player who hit 30 last year has lost a yard of pace. He hasn't, not that he had much to lose, you're just seeing what you're expecting to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dockland Dave Posted 7 January, 2013 Share Posted 7 January, 2013 What did people expect when we were promoted. The spine of the team is the same one that got us out of div 1. If we finish 17th i will be a very happy man. Some fans on here seem to expect us to be in the upper half of the table, please you are deluded. I always look at what the bookies think at the beginning of the season, and as the old phrase goes, you never see a book bookmaker. The bookies seemed to think we would be in the relegation mix up and we are. As for the those who expect Ramirez to be the real deal deal straight out of the box, very few flair players are in this league. Look at Henry or Pires or Modric or Ronaldo, all took the best part of a season to find their feet. Whether spending 12m on him is a wise move is yet to be seen, but don't judge him yet. So here is my assesment Keepers - weak position, hopefully Boruc can find some consistantcy and make position his own. You don't become a bad keeper overnight! LB - Luke Shaw has made the position his own and all the big boys are sniffing. Fox seemed out of his depth, but this lad will only get better and better, lets hope we can keep him. RB - Clyne - the boy is only 21 but looks a real talent, has pace and can tackle. Has proven to be a very good piece of business and as with Shaw will only get better Centre Backs - Fonte and Yoshida - Both struggled to settle, and pardon the pun, but our defending was kamikaze at best. However with time both have formed a useful partnership, not top class, but good enough to help us survive Midfield - Morgan Schneiderlin - looks like he could play at one of the big boys, does the simple things well Cork - His return to fittness has coincided with an upturn in our fortunes. Like MS he looks at home in this division. Davis - A bit part player, but always does a job when he comes on Ramirez- You can see in flashes why he is special, when he gets going we will have a big star Puncheon- Most of us thought he would have been sold off, sent out on loan or would be sulking in the reserves. Has been our surprise package, scored some important goals and has been our best player in a number of games. SRL - Never going to be mobile enough to be top draw, but he is a goal scorer and if he hits 15 goals from this season we should be safe. JayRod. - still getting to grips with this league, but has shown enough to see he should make a bigger impact with time Guly - the fans scapegoat, but better than most of us give him credit Lallana - if only he had a bit more pace, would be one of the best players in this league. But saying that if he did would have left with Bale & Walcott years ago Manager - On a steep learning curve, but appears to be getting there. If he manages to keep us up after 2 consecutive promotions, the bloke should be given the respect that he deserves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We probably should have gone for Alan Hutton instead I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
