Does anyone rate Sterling?

Not sure if it's just me but he seems poor most of the time.

As soon as Swansea got the ball and could keep it away from us it was going to be tough! We play well at controlling the ball and playing at our own speed, we simply couldn't keep up with them for a big chunk of the second half!

That being said, was a brilliant game to watch! Really need a replacement for Bunn though. Both keepers had a shocker of a game to be fair, but Bunn was constantly caught in no-man's land, and he can't leap from the floor to cover his posts

Going to be a long 3 months without Ruddy... I'd even welcome Declan Rudd back into the goal in favour of Mark Bunn at the moment!

Mark Bunn looked hopeless when the ball was in the air which very nearly cost us the game. Declan Rudd? I would much prefer to have Jed Steer in goal but we loaned him out to Cambridge United for some reason..

We are 9 points away from the drop now so even if we do suffer without Ruddy we atleast have some breathing space.

Just you, really rate him. Sure he isn't the most consistent, but for an 18 year old, he is consistent for his age. a lot to learn, but really pleased with him this season thus far.

He needs a rest but yes of course the do, can't base it off one game

Poor on the ball today, but he's been very good this season, particularly considering that he was 17 until a couple of days ago.

not basing it off one game, just whenever i watch - don't really watch him too closely so was interested in what others ( who will have watched him more ) thought.

Good god, Downing's got the vision of Stevie Wonder. Had yards on the attacker just then and let him run past him in the box, win the ball and get the cross in.

 

[Purdy]

Goal from another non free kick?

**** off Carlton ****

 

[Newbie007]

Aww, unlucky Jonjo. Good run, thought it was a good tackle too.

 

[Purdy]

YOU WERE PLAYI NGUYEN ADVANTAGE PROBERT YOU ****ING **** ****

 

[Clearly]

OLOLOLOLOLOL PROBERT

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

iirc, you have been pretty vocal in your admiration for Shelvey as well?

Cole's a waste of space and money. Might score the odd goal now and again but the damage has already been done.

Shelvey on the other hand isn't good enough to be playing behind the strikers just yet and regularly struggles when he isn't given time or space but he does have time on his side and looks like he's progressing.

 

[Robbo]

That was a penalty.

 

[MrJohnSherry]

How is that not a bloody penalty? jesus. At the very least a freekick since shelvey was getting dry humped by the defender.
