dudevillaisnice 2,464 Report post Posted August 25, 2018 Whilst he is playing at the back each team we come up against will get chances which immediately doesn’t help us, I don’t even think his team mates trust him at the back which shows with the mistakes he has every single game.

sne 13,709 Report post Posted August 25, 2018 Too slow and poor with his feet to play in midfield, but good at heading the ball is not enough attributes to make a central defender. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Farlz 2,998 Report post Posted August 25, 2018 The only thing Jedinak is good at in CB is heading the ball away. I'll give him that, he wins everything in the air but the rest of his game is extremely poor. He can't be used in defence just to win headers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jim 2,170 Report post Posted August 25, 2018 Poor again today and nearly cost us a goal 10 minutes from the end. I haven't seen the replay but from where I was sat the ball looked like it went over the line in the scramble. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeilS 943 Report post Posted August 25, 2018 We cannot continue with Jedinak in defence. He is too slow and cumbersome. Failure to get a CB in before the end of the month will be the decision to cost us promotion and Bruce his job. If we want a decent chance of the auto spots get on the phone to John Terry ASAP.

Dave-R 1,025 Report post Posted August 25, 2018 It seems as though everyone is against jedinak as cb and I can understand that as its not his position, can take players along time to get used to new roles. Think SB needs to find a player or two for defence, definitely, the CB position needs sorting out, I just hope Bruce sorts it sooner or later as the goals are coming in against us.

Keener window-cleaner 1,140 Report post Posted August 25, 2018 I still think it will be a mistake to keep him playing cb all season, but today I thought he was quite good. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KHV 2,915 Report post Posted August 26, 2018 His distribution for someone that has played the game this long and played at world cups is **** criminal. Must have turned over possession over 15 times today with what can only be described as Sunday league passing. He is just a beard disguised as a footballer.

Agreed. I actually thought he was very good. Though to be honest that's quite damning, as all it really means is that we failed to beat an incredibly limited opposition who kept pumping the ball upfield at head height.

Bunnski 1,793 Report post Posted August 26, 2018 He's a liability, in the build up to the Reading chance that led to the double save by Nyland he completely missed an easy clearance and let the ball go right through him. The only thing he does well is head the ball, everything else he is either bad or average at. Get rid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gilbertoAVFC 348 Report post Posted August 26, 2018 He was good overall. Positioning is good, wins everything in the air. He knows what to do, he just can't do it very well because he is so ropey in possession. The missed clearance for Nyland save is comical - almost looks intentional. How can somebody who played in the World Cup not connect with the ball there?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hornso 1,247 Report post Posted August 28, 2018 Find it amusing in the past there have been some on here who wanted him to retire from international football, but I'm sure now people will be wanting him to be called up by Graham Arnold in January to play in the Asian Cup and get him out of the centre of our defence for a month 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
