Barton, Butt, Viduka and Geremi

Viduka has a few decent touches if you ask me and done as about as much as Owen and Martins, hard to judge Barton as he has been in and out of the team all season and was playing on the left most of the fist half but can he even pass a ball?

Don't ever pull on a black and white shirt again.

 

Fuck off would have sufficed... No need to waste typing on these retards...

 

No Smith though? :(

Carroll and Zog have to come on. We need a point here at least, biggest 45mins since I can remember.

 

Where's David Kelly when you need him? tbf this is nowt but comparison...

 

It's depressing all the same though....

Thought Barton was shocking tonight. Actually thought Geremi did alright second half, apart from his shite corner-taking :(

It's annoying as his set-pieces at the ANC were quite good actually.

I think Viduka's problem is that we don't have anybody around him with a brain who can see what he's doing and where to go - this makes him look worse than he is imo.

 

Geremi was canny as well apart from the corners.

I thought Nicky Butt was okay today. Got stuck in and short passing was good.

 

Geremis set pieces were abysmal. I would have been absolutely ashamed of those corners.

 

Barton battled back well but his passing is horrific.

 

Viduka looked unfit to me. Needs more games. I would have put Carroll on for him later in the game for some fresh legs.

 

And Smith had by far his best game for us today. ..

Hopefully he will continue in this vein until the end of the season...

 

Martins had a better 80 minutes than Smith's last 30 games put together.

fucking hell. Geremi must be about fucking 40. Seriously, he must have snuck into the REal Madrid youth team at 30 and looked like some prodigy so got a chance in their first team. He hobbles about as if his knees are about to go any minute, and fuck me, how many times does he want to hit the first man from a corner?!

 

We needed to bring Zog on for Geremi not Martins, as we may have had a chance of snatching a win because they were woeful in the second. =/

Did none of you see how much of a cut above Viduka was with his hold-up play?

His style of play seems not only to be far too intelligent for most of his team mates but unfortunately for most of the fans as well. :(

Agreed, when we got the ball to him he kept it =) the trouble is with Owen dropping back to midfield because his legs are gone, Martins on the left wing, and no bodies from Midfield getting involved, Viduka's hold-up play wasn't as effective as it could have been =)

Viduka was one of the highlights for me. Great control. Should have pulled the trigger when through on goal.

 

Martins was a different player second half, seemed to be finding space although think Brum got a bit complacent and started pushing up creating space behind their midfield.

 

One thing that certainly needs to be addressed is passing. First half, our completion rate must have been about 20% absolutely woeful for a so called professional outfit.

I didn't say that he had a really good game and imho he looked unfit (as well). But because of his ability to keep possession and his understanding of the game (shown in glimpses today as well) it was a sensible decision to keep him on.
