Don't use my name to do your dirty work Bossman! Carroll has been poor for us, any Rangers fan will tell you that. You don't like hearing it mate but I'm afraid its the truth. Kranjcar is a pretty useless lump too. Ekotto, for all his ability, he doesn't really give a sh*t. As for Jenas, well, the less said about him the better. I expected more from these players at the start of the season to be honest.
LOL I would never be that shady, you know that Swords. Everything you and fans are saying about Ekotto, Jenas and Nko are what our fans said, they all have ability but for various reasons aren't the type of players you really want in a battle to get promotion.
That's true mate. Maybe if Carroll was in the side today we might have done better? Who knows? All I know is our season is imploding and it doesn't look like we can do anything about it!
Krancjar's performance today was the closest thing to a 0 out of 10 I've seen Putting him in a 2 man CM was suicide and the more athletic, determined Reading players embarrassed him.
He was abject. I am angry with how bad his performance was. How on earth can he be so out if condition. I can only think he has a thyroid complaint. It's beyond embarrassing. I hate criticising our own but Henry would have been a better option. I drove back from Cornwall this morning and although they were poor there is only one man I can't forgive. Get fit man. Do some shuttles. Do some weights. It's your job!
He is not a central midfielder Like Adel only worse He needs to get it on the edge of the box or just outside So that is either 451 or him as the 2nd striker If he wasn't on the pitch we'd all be saying - no one creates anything - where is Niko? But FFS surely someone can get him a bit fitter
Spot on. To think, people used to moan about Taarabt. Bloody hell, Kranjcar isn't fit to clean his boots!
But mate, he isn't creating anything. Nothing at all! And when he gets on the edge of the box, he always seems to scuff his shot wide. He's so unfit that he mis-times tackles all over the place and he simply shouldn't be in the team. But good old Harry rates him!
A fair point For someone who can hit a first time 50 yard pass so cleanly he rarely shoots well. True he doesn't create much but But every time he gets the ball I live in hope that he will
I have nothing to compare Krancjar's fitness level to, I can't remember what he was like at Spurs and earlier. If he's not fit the only people to blame are the coaching staff for not getting him in shape and Harold for picking him if he is not physically up to it.
Agreed. Surely you can compare his fitness level to those of the players around him on the pitch? He's always looked lethargic and has never had any pace, but he looks about as fit as me (and I'm 52!!).
He was accused of being lazy and returning to training out of shape at Spurs after an injury, I don't believe he has any sort of person pride in staying fit.
Compare his fitness to the expectations of his job. I'm a teacher and if I'm unsatisfactory I'm in trouble. Disciplinary and all. No complaints because I'm not. I try. If fitness is beyond him then tell us or rather simply don't pick him.
I need some closure on this now. I am now delving into my half empty fridge and all I can see is nico tucking into a three course at some top london hotel. And wine. And cheese. And biscuits.
He reminds me of the fat bloke down the pub that used to be a bit of a baller twenty years ago. You put him in your vets team only to see a sixteen year old whipper snapper run rings around him. Bench him until he's fit ffs. You can't afford to have passengers in the championship. Enough is enough, after a good start he has disappointed more than most.
