ewerk 31195 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Up to 15th! At least until tomorrow night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6700 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 a bag load of in the second half... worrying when it's against the likes of WBA. When Ameobi is one of your best players, it's a major concern! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 31195 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 An honourable mention for Beye, most improved player on the pitch after Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingKev 0 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 What a nail-biter, but never should have been one when you're 2-0 up. Bad performance in the second half, but today only 3 pts matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deano 0 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 It was a rather indifferent performance from the boys thnight... At times going forward we looked very dangerous, especially when the likes of Duff and Jonas ran witht he ball. Then at other times we looked out of idea's, martins was hot and cold, so to was shola, xisco was well...Shit! Defence was a funny thing, colo and taylor looked solid at times and again at others they were woeful, colo's mistake for the goal was rather bramblesque... All in all it was a game very much of two halfs...the good and the bad, but still some glimmers of positivity of whats to come. Oh and well done Joey Barton...MOM and i think rightly so, though duff and jonas would of come close! Given: 7 Not alot to do Enrique: 6 Shaky at times but still not match fit (Id have bassong ahead of him imo) Beye: 7 Glimpses of the Habib from last season...solid Taylor: 6 Indifferent Colocinni: 6 Solid on the whole but few nervy moments, at fault for the goal Duff: 8 Consistantly beat his man, real force going forward Jonas: 8 Full of energy and assertiveness Guthrie: 7 Worked hard Barton: 8 Silenced a few critics, was diciplined and worked hard, made a few excellant passes and a good penalty! Martins: 7 Indifferent, not match fit, frustrating but got his goal Ameobi: 7 Worked hard, won so many headers and very good general play Geremi: Slow and wasteful Xisco: Shit and shit Carrol:..... 1st win in two months, and promising at times!

peasepud 59 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 kingkev...martins? You're easily impressed mate he's been poor IMHO shola's been better so far. Jonas however is looking shit hot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassplayerjj 0 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I think if Guthrie and Barton play a fair amount of games together, with jonas and duff/zog flying either side of them, it could be quite a useful midfield until jan comes along. Barton is obviously short of match practice but given all of his criminal activity he's not a bad player. We've needed someone to get their foot on the ball and pass it about with composure, I think Guthrie and him could have a nice balance in the middle of the park and with a few players around them running into the right positions and retaining possession better it will work nicely. what a monster of a fucking sentence oops =/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bawan 0 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I dont give a fuck about how well or bad who played, at the end of the day we got the 3 points but at the same time got passed off the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo 175 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I thought they played us off the park 2nd half, couldn't believe it when he took Martins off for Xisco, not sure there is enough room for Shola and Xisco together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 7169 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 We arent going to be Brazil all of a sudden. Great 1st half, not so great 2nd half. Duff looked class and Jonas will only get better. We are slowly dragging ourselves out of this mess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bawan 0 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Duff is a good player, I've been impressed with him last few games but he can get too greedy which is his big let down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triggy99 0 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 martins really is shit and i really don't know why the fans love him. when owens back martins should be the one getting dropped and not ameobi. duff, jonas and beye played really well and barton and ameobi were decent. guthrie wasn't in the game once again.

Ketsbaia 0 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Result was more important than the performance tonight. We looked good in the first half but very, very dodgy in the second, something which I can only attribute to lack of confidence. Hopefully tonight will act as the catalyst like Fulham at home did last year and we'll improve. Villa at home isn't the easiest of games next though. Special mentions go to Beye (looked like his old self barring the miss), Duff (looked like his Blackburn/Chelsea self) and Jonas (only player we have who looks like he might create something). I was also very impressed with Colo until that slip which led to the goal. Barton looked okay too. Taylor and Ameobi were pish poor. Martins wasn't too good either despite his goal. I really hope Owen is back for the Villa game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggy99 0 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 lol fucking hell talk about the most fickle fans Now ameobi should be starting ahead of martins some people really have there moments on here but good god he scores a couple for first time in 2years and wins a couple of headers, apart from that was the same old shola and now he starts ahead of the lad whose half fit still scores and did 10x more running... madness dumb irish twat. martins is shit and it's obvious you have never seen him play. martins and owen can't play in the same team unless we play 433. ameobi has also been the better player out of the two lately and doesn't deserve to be dropped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martins always looked much more dangerous and despite his lack of a first touch/height/ability to finish i'd have him ahead of Stroller. A few goals doesn't mask the fact that the lad isn't a footballer. Athlete? Maybe. Footballer? No. Oh, and i'll apologise to Ant for misreading his post.

They both should be dumped but unfortunately Xisco is fucking shit as is Carrol which as I said leaves Viduka and Owens as the only decent strikers we have. Pisser is 40 games between the two of them would be a miracle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
