bobzy Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Chester is good for us, but he seems to get absolutely no stick at all for what are huge, if not costly, errors. I think he might be the only player not to? Maybe he's made out of Teflon. Even in our last game, against Forest, he made a couple of absolutely woeful passes out of defence - one even went straight to McKay to give him a run at goal but, thankfully, he produced a terribly tame shot at the end of it. I actually think the best thing about him is his calmness on the ball and, funnily enough, his passing ability. In Chester and Terry, we have the best ball-playing central defenders in the league. He's very decent and I'd rather have him than not, for sure, but.... *tin hat on*... I can't help feeling he's pretty overrated on here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's only made two errors that have led to shots on goals in his entire time here no? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Gets away with murder, poor defending that was luckily escaped by a poor finish today. A walking error Needs be replaced for top flight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post andym Posted January 20, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 20, 2018 One mistake of the type that is generally the exception from him this season, and he's 'a walking error'? He's one of the few we wouldn't need to replace if we got promoted. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Well i rarely see full games these days but he never convinces me from what i have seen 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrytini Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 He is regularly excellent. Of course he will make mistakes and have off days, even the best do that and it’s very noticeable in his position.....but they are few and far between. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobzy Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Yeah, he doesn’t need to be replaced at all, but that is yet another daft error gifting the opposition a chance at goal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that a stat from actually using the ball or something? Because he’s made many more than just 3 errors in a year (as have most footballers, by the way).

Dr_Pangloss Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 The mistake he made was utterly appalling and stupid, however I do not think he makes bad mistakes all that often and is absolutely vital for us, easily one of the best in the league. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically they really don't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HongKongVillan Posted January 21, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted January 21, 2018 Not a big fan but cant' think of any better realistic replacement, and seems to be ok partnering JT, so needs to stay. If we do get lucky and go up, then I would hope we can get someone better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted January 21, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted January 21, 2018 Our defense was not solid at all yesterday. They need to get back to their level, Chester foremost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
