Oaks Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Downing will come good eventually. I sadly agree, he was utter shit for us in his first 6 months too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ml1dch Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Swap you Bent for Downing? I think you missed a couple of questions in your hilarious thread further down the page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Lions_Roar Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Downing will come good eventually. I sadly agree, he was utter shit for us in his first 6 months too. I think you can put a lot of that shitness down to just coming back from a broken leg. What's his excuse this time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toela65 Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Downing seems extremely low on Confidence and a bit overwhelmed. He's not the most strong charactered of people is he. His team meates moan at him and his head justs drops down and he doesn't even reply. He was better tonight though than he has been. Actually beat a few players and got a few decent crosses and shots in. A small step in the right direction. Gerrard made him look very ordinary though.

Zatman Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I don't understand how Downing is so poor.. he left us in good form. its easy to look good in a bad team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laivasse Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Didn't Downing rocket one into the crossbar in his first game? Think it's all a matter of confidence... as he continues to fail to meet expectations he'll play with more and more tension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaAlex Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I hope Collicini gets done for that elbow. He knew exactly what he was doing IMO You want him to get done for trying to shield the ball. No way was that deliberate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 1-0 Blackburn, Yakubu again. What's that now? 12 goals in 12 league games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heystally! Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 1-0 Blackburn, Yakubu again. What's that now? 12 goals in 12 league games? 3 pens and 4 against Swansea. He's done well but it's stats like that that make people think we should have him instead of Darren Bent, which is ridiculous IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 always liked Yakubu, should have bought him from Middlesborough, when he was 26/27. He scores goals, 12 goals is better than 4 or whatever Bent has, regardless of where he scored them. Although if we had any decent service, Im sure Bent would have more goals than he currently has.
