I was hammered yesterday whilst posting but have sobered up now. Cabral - I couldn't understand why he was not playing? Perhaps do Canio was making a point to Ellis, this is what you get if Cabral is injured? I stand by my opinion on Sess' the lad for me was not interested and rightly substituted. He should be dropped for the next game. I though Altidore tried his pluck out. He got nothing from the ref all game. The ball didn't run for him. Just needs a goal. I like the look of him. Larrson was our best player in the first half. He continually broke down the opposition however he faded second half. Also Seb had a free kick in the 82nd minute, hit the wall allowing Southampton to break and score. A poor free kick that really annoyed me. Gardner was poor. Lucky not to be sent off. Colback injured -fook!!!!! Westwood did well. The two centre backs did well coping with a lot of pressure. Lambert must be wondering how he came out of that game without scoring! He is quality mind you. Diakate looked strong and he battled all game, made one awesom tackle in particular. He does look match fit but a decent signing.certainly not as tidy on the ball as roberge. Right back - a very good signing. Johnson and giacc' started on different wings this week. They were not involved as much due to Sourhamptons midfield dominance still both did well in flashes and neither wasted the ball Ji when he came on he did well I though. He is dispossessed easily and he dallied on the ball on occasions but he is a clever player gets in good positions and uses the ball well most of the time. I would start him ahead of sess' next game. Although it is the cup match and it will be interesting to see what team is put out. I'm at work so I'll miss it. Gutted.
Agree with everything you said mate. Seb had a good game but Gardner really was poor. I've seen enough of him in cm to confidently say he has no future there for us. Back-up rb and that's it
Glad to see there is a bit more positivity today. Got p*ssed off with the doom and gloom merchants yesterday.
agree with pretty much everything Tony. Except for starting Ji, I just dont think he is any good. He is weak as pish for a big fella, and while he gets the ball in good positions he does absolutely nowt with it.
Kindd of agree. Not a fan of Larsson but you can't blame his free kick in 82nd minute ( even though it was ****e) for the reason they scored in the 88th. Bit harsh that mate.
