StefanAVFC Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 He'll be off if we go down, been very solid for us imo shame about the rest of our shambles of a defence Nah he won't We took a punt on him and we'll be fine playing in the Championship, considering he hasn't ever played in that division.

He'd easily get in at somewhere like stoke imo we'll be lucky if we do hang onto him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyBM Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 we will need to hold onto him to help us get back up the first time but as they said on talksport the other day, its a difficult league to get out of, so hopefully lerner will learn and spend the money when we bounce back up to keep us up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CI Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 What a cross. Ok calm down, the cross was speculative at best. Benteke did the hard bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CI Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 He's been one of our best players this season imo Maybe but that's not saying much. He's been average since Liverpool away IMHO then again they all have bar the nr 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troglodyte Posted February 2, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted February 2, 2013 He's a good player but I think he's avoided criticism somehow - possibly for a mixture of reasons including Bennett being so bad; looking good going forwards; and looking solid in terms of his tackling play and not letting a man get past him. However, there have been several occasions this season, some of which have ended up with us conceding goals, where he's lost his man through being switched off positionally. I'm not saying that he should receive criticism, as he's still a young lad who clearly does have a decent amount of talent and potential - but I think he's got off lightly considering some of the abuse Bennett and others have received from 'fans'!

vandaq Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 No don`t get me wrong in an ideal world I would ship all of the four out, last one being vlaar. I am not a big fan of anyone we have in our back four. But I do think that lowton has had some moments this season, but yes, he should only be a sub for now. Shame how this all has turned out really, bennett for example is nowhere ready for any premier league team at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_John_10 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Looked ok at times but has still been a serious weak point this season. As others said he seems to avoid criticism for some reason but he's part of the worst defence in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 think he has avoided criticism because he has been our best defender this season(not a great contest) and their have been a lot worse players. He is probably in top 5 best players(again not a great contest) Havent seen all of the games but from what I have seen he has settled in well and cant really remember a winger tear him apart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troglodyte Posted February 2, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted February 2, 2013 That's my point though, he's not let a winger repeatedly beat him, but he does seem to fall asleep positionally quite often so a lot of chances are created in the space he's left. However, I'm not saying that he deserves criticism. I like him and think he has talent, but he's lacking in experience when it comes to having a consistent awareness of what's going on around him.

Jarpie Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 He definitely would need a breather but wouldn't trust Lichaj to fill in for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Lowton is a decent player who will only get better with time, IMO. To write him off now is folly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
