Dr_Pangloss Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 2 hours ago, Keyblade said: He looked great before he got injured. He's a beast at RB but doesn't have the positional awareness at CB. Killing two birds with one stone by playing him there. His horrific positional sense gifted them a great chance early in the first half. Other than that, he did quite well, definitely better at RB than CB, should never play at centre half for his again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 His lack of positional sense is less damaging at RB which is another strike against him playing at CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too, he scored the goal and went to talk to the angry fans. I think he started the season well but has gone backwards along with the results. In the videos on AVTV he looks like the heart and soul of the dressing room as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Xela Posted January 9, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted January 9, 2016 1 hour ago, theboyangel said: Me-me-micah, is only trying to save face for one thing - himself. He has no loyalty to the club, and I think he believes he's a god amongst men and he's not part of the problem. Unfortunately his ability isn't as good as his ego would lead him to believe. He did some ok things today as RB but too many times was out of position for the important stuff, like defending. And instead of knuckling down after a mistake, he'd throw his arms about and shake his head at the other players.... Some leader. Sorry mate, I just don't see it? How do you know he has no loyalty? He's a local lad and genuinely seems upset with the way things are going. What makes you think he sees himself as a god amongst men? As for throwing his arms around, I've seen loads of players do that, Its not an uncommon thing for a player to do. He's showing his frustration and he shows it more obviously than people around him. I think there is a pre-conceived idea that he is some sort of big time Charlie and there has been absolutely no evidence to back that up whatsoever. However, it appears to be seen as a fact now He was our best defender before his injury ( know, hardly a great claim) and he has been poor since he has come back, but I'm seeing stuff made up just so there are more sticks to beat him with. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting comment from Garde. Unprofessional comment from Garde more like Maybe he's just as fed up with his attitude as some people on here are. I don't think the thumbs up to Wycombe fans helped either. Needs to get over the fact he was being booed and focus more on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to think it just means there is no serious injury but better to not risk making it worse before the game on Tuesday 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supernova26 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Playing the "look at me I care" card often the sign of a shiit player trying to cover their shortcomings. Sadly many fall for it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackbauer24 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 (edited) He definitely has an ego BUT that's probably a good thing. We need less timid players, less players who have zero confidence because an eight year old might shout something nasty... I liked the way he celebrated his first goal for the club, I like the way he was business like in his response to his goal today against poor opposition, I like that he wanted to explain stuff to the fans - not like he was shouting at them or anything. I think he is as disappointed as the rest of us, relegation isn't going to look god on his CV and I think he thought he'd be looking at the England squad this year rather than dealing with this crap. That being said he is not reliable and is lacking discipline as he tries to lead the club out this mess. I think he takes the responsibility of captain very seriously but is equally as disappointed with his own inconsistency as the rest of us. Before his goal he looked very good at RB and although he might not want to play there anymore, I think that's where he should stay going forward. A back four of Richards Okore Lescott Cissokho is our best defence. I have no issues with Richards' effort or desire.

sonic_bouma Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 I'm not gonna give him credit for talking to 3 fans. He's playing shit and his attitude since Sherwood left has been garbage. He doesn't accept responsibility for his mistakes and his demeanour on the pitch in some games this year has been a disgrace for a captain. He can leave with the rest of them at the end of the season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His performances can be criticised, sure, but attitude? Dos showing emotion = bad attitude? Not having a go, just interested to hear where this is coming from 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted January 9, 2016 Moderator Share Posted January 9, 2016 I have no issues with his lifestyle, his attitude or his role in the dressing room - but, he's not as good a centre back as Okore or Lescott and he's not as good a right back as Hutton, so for now, he should be on the bench. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnski Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 He can easily be summed up by the way he reacted today as he stood there after a throw in and let Wycombe nearly score and then throws his hands up and has a whinge at someone, joke of a captain and joke of a player, needs dropping and he's not even good enough for us in our current state, says it all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
