TrentVilla Posted February 2, 2013 Moderator Share Posted February 2, 2013 'Concrete Ron' I've taken shits harder than him after a two day bender. Out muscled and out jumped for the goal. Perhaps he gets the name because it often appears he has had his feet set in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_John_10 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 His return has made no difference to a shit defence. He's no better than what he replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefanAVFC Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 I feel sorry for Vlaar. I feel like he has to cover for Clark so much it's affecting his game. Obviously the corners are his fault, but at least he gives a shit about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted February 2, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted February 2, 2013 He's a very average CB. He'd be pretty good in a run of the mill Prem defence, and on the bench at any club with a top end defence. As it is he's the best in a bunch of no hopers.

Stevo985 Posted February 2, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted February 2, 2013 Only defence I can give him for their 3rd goal today was Fellaini had a huge handful of his shirt. Not sure that excuses it, mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I think when Ron was injured he picked up some Nigel Reo-Coker or Luke Young syndrome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I honestly thought he was great apart from his mistake of course. I also feel he's held back by Clark alongside him, he's always having to mop up after him etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 He has been directly responsible for marking players that have scored from corners a number of times in the last month. That is not getting the basics right surely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozvillafan Posted February 3, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted February 3, 2013 (edited) Only defence I can give him for their 3rd goal today was Fellaini had a huge handful of his shirt. Not sure that excuses it, mind. I've seen the replay. Not only does Fellani push him on numerous occassions, he got a telling shove in the back from another Everton player (Anichibe?) that put him in front of Fellani as the ball was delivered. Perhaps that doesn't excuse it - but who else was going to mark Fellani? Clark? Edited February 3, 2013 by ozvillafan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 So Fellaini, who's one of the most dangerous people in the air in football at the moment and is going to play for a very top club soon, managed to score a header against Vlaar and so that makes him shit? Do me a favour. Ron is a very good CB and is having to carry both Clark and Bennett at the back, whilst dealing with his own dip in confidence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Played well. Shame about losing out to Fellaini. Fellaini's shit in the air too. Dude, Fellaini is a powerhouse in the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about when he lost his marker against Bradford City for their equalizer or the late goal from the West Brom corner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillakevBromsgrove Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Did anybody here Hansons analysis on MOD, he was bang on the money when he talked about Clarke and his inexperience, the way he constantly gets close and tries to dance with the forwards is abysmal and shows a total lack of experience and confidence, why can our coaches not bloody see this and advise the lad on what he should be doing. Hanson could see how to put it right so why can't they. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 What about when he lost his marker against Bradford City for their equalizer or the late goal from the West Brom corner? Or what about all the good stuff he does as well? Considering the fee we paid, he's been a very good signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's been pretty average myself, certainly I wouldn't go so far as saying very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyBM Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 we used to have better than him sitting on the bench, shame now that hes our best defender, hes by no means like olly or laursen, probably on par with collins, just cheaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 He's better than Collins in every conceivable way except for maybe in the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
