Have you ever seen me vilify a Sunderland player? No. Seb Larsson is not good enough to play CM, that is my opinion, plain & simple. No witchhunt or motive, just my observation having seen him fail to influence a game from that position some 30 plus times now. Beg to differ, and I won't be calling you for it
You actually make a decent point here, but i completley and utterley with 100 % certaninty disagree with it. Larsson shouldnt start for safc in centre mid because he isnt good enough. Simples.
We will just have to wait and see how long PDC plays him there for then won;t we. Lets see, the highest ranked coach ever to qualify for his pro one coaching badges or a not606 contributor with any coaching badges No brainer springs to mind. Lets wait and see eh, but give the lad a chance, PDC will....................can you?
FFS...had a night on the lash and this is still raging. OPINIONS. Some like, some dislike. Chill the fook out. He might have a cracking season, he might be ****e. I don't rate the lad but if he has a cracking season I will be over the moon. SG you obviously rate the lad and if you a proven to be right, I'll be the first to buy you a pint cos I don't want anymore. (Till tomorrow.....today)
So your not buying me a pint if Larsson does well next season? ;-) I was in a funny old mood yesterday and if I overstepped the mark then I would not be the first, won't be the last and it was done to defend a loyal servant of the club that started 36 games last season and whose stats hold up very well against other midfielders playing in a similar role. There was harsh criticism from some quarters on here when Mignolet left us - said he was disloyal, well seems they only expect loyalty to be applicable to the players to fans & not the other way round - lets see how many of the new signings prove to be robust and versatile enough to start 36 Premier games as he did last season.
Good to have debate mate, what's the point of a nodding forum? I stand by what I said, not good enough for CM, but I hope he stays, and is used from the right where required. Be a sad day for the lasses if he went as well.... If he scores 4 I'll get you a pint
not good enough for central midfield.............that's a fair comment and I'm glad someone else think he is worth keeping as he will fill a spot until a cost effective replacement comes along, until that happens some need to take into account he is not playing in his favoured position, temper their criticism & be grateful he is there.
