Right now is say holding midfield - Hayden is playing well but when he doesn't Colback coming in seems a poor replacement. Guess if Tiote sorts his life out that might change but we'll see Still not 100% sure about LB either.....
Have to say Jak Attack. Don't think he's really pulling his weight on this forum. But if we are talking not pulling their weight on a pound for pound basis, then on that basis it would have to be the Fat Boy One.
So previously I'd have thought Diame and Gouffran, but they both smashed it today, especially Diame who looked like a complete beast. The obvious answer is Colback, who is clearly massively inferior to Hayden.
Weirdly I thought Diame was a bit pish today - had a few good spells but wasn't as consistent as he was in the Brighton game
I agree I thought colbavk might go well on this league but he really is a poor player. As for dummet I haven't seen anything from him.
Well, I dont care what defenders do as long as we keep a clean sheet. As far as Im concerned they ve done their job, everything else is a bonus. How bad did Luke Shaw look today? Totally out of his depth. Pretty much...decent championship side written all over us.
I would say we're one of the top championship sides. Maybe some would call me deluded, but I reckon we're certainties to go up. We're winning games now without reaching our potential, plenty of strength in depth. Happy times ahead!
Up top - all very average. Good championship strikers and some potential. Current level of mitro, Gayle and Perez is nothing to write home about.
I agree. I think our attacking options are weak. Lets hope plenty of players chip in with goals, because I just cant see Mitro getting 20 + this season.
It appears we have a championship level striker.... Except he's on loan. Did anyone see his game winner today!?
I will try harder - its hard when I can't see any of the games here. I am not going to jump on the Colback bandwagon. He always puts a decent shift in. While that talented ones get the kudos he is the sort who will play consistently week in- week out.
He does play consistently, consistently ****e. He is by far (alongside Dummet) our weakest link. He is an ok 4th choice central midfielder and yes he does put himself about but is poor in the tackle, poor in the air, poor at passing, poor at positioning etc
Guess I am just a softy at heart - I don't like people picking on short Gingers - they have enough problems.
