Does anyone else think Vertonghen is really bad?

I haven't made excuses for the Wednesday chants. I've said that I'd be more then happy to see those fans removed, there were so little of them singing that I only caught the beat of the chant and not the actual words.
Abuse thrown at players isn't unusual in a local derby. Wednesday fans were giving that while Leeds fans were singing songs about Jones, all game, singing songs about Jimmy Saville, there were very few reditions of any actual Leeds songs.
Dave Jones didn't react at all to the Leeds fans until the very end of the match when he took objection to Warnock telling his players to applaud them. Warnock played up to the crowd all game.
I don't think the abuse is right, but the abuse at Warnock was nothing that is unusual in a local derby, the Jones abuse was different.

And mata hasn't even made it to the spanish squad
Vert is awesome going forward but he doesn't have walker's engine to get back in position. That third goal came from exploiting space on our left and then switching to the right.
Ho hum Defoe, siggy, Dempsey, Lennon vs Torres, Oscar, mata, hazard.
No contest.

Only because of his involvement in olympics and the premiership starting earlier.

Kyle Walker is crap. He looked bad against San Marino as well, and he's just uneccessarily lasered the ball at Mata.
Well we gave it a bash but without our two best players and against that front line we couldn't compete.
Adebayor looks good as an outlet in these situations but Defoe has played well. It has been Siggy and Dempsey who have disappointed most for me. They have offered no ammo for Defoe and haven't made any runs off him.

Our starting XI to play Stoke
---------------De Gea---------------
Rafael---Evans---Ferdinand---Evra
Valencia---Carrick---Scholes---Welbeck
---------------Rooney---------------
-----------------RVP-----------------
SUBS: Lindegaard, Wootton, Anderson, Powell, Nani, Giggs, Hernandez
would have preferred Nani for Welbeck but other than that good side, hope it is 4-4-2 with Rooney and RVP up front together
