    I hope PDC learns to keep JC at right back to backup AJ on the right. Danny Rose behind JM on left is ok. JMwas hopeless on right but looked much happier on left and bring madron on to help DG.

    Colback had a great game. Got forward with Johnson and did well in defence. The lad's really coming of age

    He can play solidly in several positions, fantastic to have a player like that in the squad.

    Colback, Johnson & Rose were great tonight.
    Very impressed with the fight back in the second half.

    JM is ****e where ever he is on the park... Championship player at best like Elmo.
    We have too many players from relugated clubs and no matter what way you look at it they are still failures in the Premiership! Ellis should make a rule we can not an do not sign any player from clubs that finnish below us or outside the top 10 of their own (Top Foreign leagues) I know it will cost him more but at least we will stop signing DUCK EGGS!

    McLean
    Larrson
    Graham
    Quellar
    Gardener
    Vaughn

    All well below par for this league!!!

    He chose the same 11 players as I did but he got it totally wrong and we looked better with 10 men. Two left wingers on the pitch but neither of them were left wing??? What he tried to start with might have worked better if he had Colback behind Rose.

    Id of snapped your hand off for a draw at half time so we have to treat it as a point gained. The atmosphere after the goal is how we need to go into the Southampton game. A point won't be good enough to keep us up.

    Harsh. For some of those I'd like to see what PDC can do with them after a full pre-season. The entire team has been lacking ambition and drive under MON and I'm sure some of players will get better under PDC. You can already see it with a few (Sess, AJ etc)

    Cuellar? What has he done wrong?

    JM - Was good last season, **** this one. His fault, or was MON unable to get the best out of him once last seasons high was forgotten about?

    Graham - Did even try under MON, putting a graft in now. Not his fault service hasnt been good at Villa and against Stoke. I can see him coming good.

    Larrson - Again, good for a while under MON last season and decent under Bruce. This season woeful.

    Vaughn - has even had a chance to show what he can do? 38% win rate with him in the team, 7% when not. coincidence?

    Gardner - seriously? He ****ed up last night, but to say he isnt good enough?


    Anyway, my point is that most of the team have been **** under MON this season so I dont think the players are to blame in every case.

    See a few months ago I'd have argued with you on this as Bardsley (last season particularly) looked a far better player at full back than we had - but now, he looks poor for me and is struggling! Pity as I can never doubt his attitude or commitment - just his ability now!!

    Cuellar, for me he's been up and down but his performance against Villa was the worst defensive performance I've seen in years.

    The players listed for me aren't or shouldn't be good enough for the first 11

    Unfortunately, this seems to be true now. He's never looked the same since his injury. A real shame.

    Cuellar? What has he done wrong?

    Answer.. He was a good player but now lacks pace, he was shocking last week against Villa (where do his loyalties lie?) and did just enough tonight against a poor Stoke side.

    JM - Was good last season, **** this one. His fault, or was MON unable to get the best out of him once last seasons high was forgotten about?

    Answer .. he is a one trick pony who suprised poeple at first but is noe easily read and stopped. cant fault effort or commitment but little skill and too controversial off the field.

    Graham - Did even try under MON, putting a graft in now. Not his fault service hasnt been good at Villa and against Stoke. I can see him coming good.

    Answer.. Puts himself about a lot but no tactical awareness, vision. dont think he had a shot at goal last night, didnt at villa. If you can see him scoring goals for us then you need to see your Optician.

    Larrson - Again, good for a while under MON last season and decent under Bruce. This season woeful.

    Answer.. Scored 1 free kick in Mons first game and done absolutly **** all since. Free kicks getting worse and corners now beating the first man but also missing the LAST man. Spends too much time Arguing and Hiding.

    Vaughn - has even had a chance to show what he can do? 38% win rate with him in the team, 7% when not. coincidence?

    Answer... he hasn't had a chance as the Managers think there are 'better' players than him, if those players aren't good enough that should tell you a story. cant fault his Effort.Loyalty or Manner, just his skills.

    Gardner - seriously? He ****ed up last night, but to say he isnt good enough?

    Answer.. He is a 'Poor' Kevin Ball/Cattermole loves the Fans and we love him but there are far better options out ther for transfer in the Windows.

    If People continue to refuse to recognise a poor/unmotivated player and defend their mediocrity then we as a club will continue to be threatened with relegation. a good manager will recognise a player abilities but also their inabilities and limitations, unfortunatly Bruce and Mon didn'y and HERE WE ARE AGAIN.
