Danwichmann Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 I think Delph and KEA have been playing well this season. Is that allowed, or do I have to pick one? you must pick one. and you therefore must call the other one shite or worthless Yep, I thought that was how this thread worked.

Dodgyknees Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 I saw something (on here?) just the other day about our midfield not taking so many chances, to cut out the mistakes. I didn't reply at the time but think that person was spot on. I also think things will improve, but we do need an attack focused midfielder.

AVTuco Posted October 13, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted October 13, 2013 But you have to take some chances to go forward. Other option is to play hoofball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVTuco Posted October 13, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted October 13, 2013 When Benteke leaves we will have to make changes to our midfield. Whoever is his successor, will likely not be able to create his own chances. If it's Kozak, he needs much better service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myko Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Was absolutely awful today. So ineffective and so f****** lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshVilla Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Rubbish I have always said he is not good enough for the premier league He shows flashes of being a good player but not on a consistant enough basis to make it at this level Get rid in the summer so we can bring in a player who can grab the midfield by its bollocks, hold onto the ball and string more than 2 passes together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Amazingly he still had the highest PSR and tackles out of anyone in the midfield. The midfield looked Championship quality without Delph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwan Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Negative player. Can tackle but his PSR is high because he plays the easy pass backwards. Never picks his head up for a pass forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Negative player. Can tackle but his PSR is high because he plays the easy pass backwards. Never picks his head up for a pass forward Not defending him at all to clarify. I'm just saying that in most other midfields he wouldn't constantly come out the highest in these type of stats. Other then Delph the others are totally mediocre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 I've been critical of him but I thought he was much better than Sylla today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electric Avenue Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 He was shambolic today, forever losing the ball. Runs about like a headless chicken and did anyone see that one attempt to trap the ball. Ridiculously bad player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
botak Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Could probably be a reasonable player if he had some better players around him. He isn't going to boss the midfield single handedly, but could do a job if we weren't one of the most static and unintelligent teams in the league in terms of movement in possession. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Pangloss Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 I've been critical of him but I thought he was much better than Sylla today I wouldn't say he was 'much better' but he was better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poitier Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 I think he is a much underrated player who has had some very good games for us this season, but he was poor today - he is usually very neat in possession, but lots of poor passes today. If he has someone to pass to he can be a good link player, but the whole formation seemed a bit of a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted November 3, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted November 3, 2013 I've been critical of him but I thought he was much better than Sylla today I wouldn't say he was 'much better' but he was better. Judging merely by yesterday's performance, I honestly can't call either of them better than any other football player, each other included.

HeyAnty Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Bottom line our midfield is crap. In most things in life u get what u pay for. Bar Delph who was bought when Lerner was spending money the other 5 who played their this season have a combined total of around 7-8 million. IMO that wouldn't buy u one good midfielder these days never mind 5 of prem quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozvillafan Posted November 3, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted November 3, 2013 Thought he started well and pressed at every opportunity. Needed substituting halfway through the second as he was chasing shadows, dropping off and creating nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
