Roger Posted 31 December, 2013 Share Posted 31 December, 2013 Clyne is fast and robust, by far the better of our 2 regular full backs at this stage in theire respective careers, but he's not an academy lad and doesn't get the same hype. He's hardly made error at back and was getting forward and final ball improving ie providing cross for villa equaliser before he got injured. Hazard will test him as he's given Clyne most trouble this season IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrunkenSaint Posted 31 December, 2013 Share Posted 31 December, 2013 Davis Clyne Lovren Fonte Shaw Morgan Cork Lallana Davis Ramirez Rodriguez Give Lambert a breather, he looked tired today not just in movement but some of his passing looked laboured from the start. This team please, need to look to the future and this would be a good test for jrod and Ramirez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East of SO15 it's raining, but the impression is made worse by the wind and the sound of the rain on the pane. Off fairly soon but keeping an eye on the news..

dubai_phil Posted 1 January, 2014 Share Posted 1 January, 2014 Been off-line for ages (Hooray you all cry) Thought I saw a big change in Gaston when he came on v Everton, besdies the shirt & goal thing. Before the goal, Chambers had bombed up the wing and got caught out of position. Gaston was already back covering him in the RB slot. Also later saw him bust a gut to get back. Perhaps now would prefer him to get more game time than JWP this afternoon, otherwise same side IF they have all recovered with Morgan back in for JWP. Londoner Brew Pub on Soi 33 Sukhumvit tonight. Amazed we bumped into a Saints lass in her SRL Away shirt on Sunday. Shame her hubby was wearing a Lamela shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Window Cleaner Posted 1 January, 2014 Share Posted 1 January, 2014 No way jwp will play was rubbish at Everton. in a totally different role which he shouldn't have been given in the first place, he's not got the qualities of a DM but we didn't have any choice with 2 of our 3 DMs out for that game. The real solution might have been Clyne at LB and Shaw at DML but perhaps Clyne wasn't up to 90 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Window Cleaner Posted 1 January, 2014 Share Posted 1 January, 2014 We have gaston and Davis who can play there. not really no, it's a specialised role for players who can tackle, don't mind a bit of rough and tumble and who can win the ball in the air, Davis doesn't play well there which is why Mauricio tries to shoe in JWP. When Cork went off on Sunday we had JWP and Davis at DM and it was a shambles which led to Everton just strolling through to score..again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Who? Posted 1 January, 2014 Share Posted 1 January, 2014 I do not think Sir Rickie is fully fit. Not sure about one up front. The weather is going to have a huge impact on our game and feel this is the reason for having Rickie on the bench as it will be hard going.
