Hoola Han Solo 448 Posted September 10, 2016 Simon Lappin, a professional footballer who played with Russ for several years said he''s a true leader and amazing professional. And he''s certainly been a fantastic servant for us.Then you get a prat like viewfromthejarrold coming to slag him off straight after the game. Pathetic stuff.

Guest Posted September 10, 2016 Loooool, RM covers at left back and some wag says he shouldn''t be in team.I know that being a binner means logic isn''t your strong point though. How''s your super striker, number 9, Leon Best getting on? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted September 10, 2016 I know, first name on the team sheet!?! Ridiculous - shouldn''t even be a professional footballer, let alone in the squad. What on Earth do Simon Lappin, Paul Lambert, Gordon Strachan or Alex Neil know about footbal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hairy Canary 696 Posted September 10, 2016 He wouldn''t have been my choice but thought he had a decent game playing in an unfamiliar position and also scored so can see why he would be in the running.Are you sure you''re cant see the good things he does because you''re blinkered by your bias against him?

Drazen Muzinic 1,445 Posted September 10, 2016 MOTM is picked by the prawn sandwich brigade in the match sponsors box from a list suggested to them.It''s not integral to the match day experience for me and doesn''t earn the team any more points or goals.Hope this helps.

[:D]The OP has consistently had an issue with RM so the post is nothing surprising.RM had a great game considering he''s been out injured etc and ended up having to play 75 minutes out of position.Hoping he''ll start CB against Wigan - I have a big gripe with Ryan Bennett and it''s that for all his solid defensive work in the air, whenever it''s his job to distribute the ball he''ll look to smash it up the pitch rather than play the simple pass.

GJP 79 Posted September 10, 2016 Seeing as it has had a mention - Lappin and Martin are very good friends. It did amuse me when they asked KOS about Russ on the radio. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yorkshire Canary 118 Posted September 10, 2016 The guy had a solid game. It was his first league start he was out of position and he scored. Still a good championship player albeit I would have given mom to Jacob murphy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 4,225 Posted September 10, 2016 Played well all game and had a lot to do 2nd half when virtually all Cardiff attacks came from that right side. Dorrans played ok as did Pinto. Wes dipped in and out, .so a fair choice for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An 80% pass completion rate would make your comment....a load of boll*cks [:)]Oh, and before the next comment. The only defender with a higher pass percentage than Martin was Klose (Bennett, Brady and Pinto all had a lower pass success %). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danielsroundabout 9 Posted September 10, 2016 Hoola Han Solo diminishes his questionable viewpoint by needing to resort to personal insults directed at the OP. Try to show some respect if you want some in return.I am amazed by the support RM has on this board, far greater by proportion than appears to be the case in the ground. His record in the opponents box (for corners etc.) is pretty good but for the main part of the job, his defending is abysmal. And in no area does this apply more than at CB. When I heard today that he was starting alongside Klose, I assumed Bennett had picked up a training injury. To then see that he was on the bench meant that he had been delivered the biggest blow to his confidence imaginable, considered a poorer CB than Russell Martin.I can only agree with the OP, that MOM for RM is a joke but the fact that he was in the starting line-up is a bigger one.

Yorkshire Canary 118 Posted September 10, 2016 I struggle to understand the attitude bordering on contempt by some towards martin. He is what he is an honest guy who cost us £250 000 and is now in his 8th season at the club. We all know rb not cb is his best position and he struggles in the pl unless deployed like lambert did in an attacking throw the kitchen sink at you style. He is very capable at championship level. A very loyal club man deserves a bit more respect Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,528 Posted September 10, 2016 I think cb is his best position but I also think he''s not the type of player many fans like to see at cb. Ryan Bennett is that type of player. We didn''t really get a chance to see today. Typical of him that he gave a great shift at lb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hoola Han Solo 448 Posted September 10, 2016 "Hoola Han Solo diminishes his questionable viewpoint by needing to resort to personal insults directed at the OP. Try to show some respect if you want some in return."Yet you start by resorting to personal insults at me? The irony meter has been well and truly broken. The only reason you took offence is because you''re one of them fans who has no memory of all the good years Russ had with us and have a weird agenda whereby you gleefully pick up on all his mistakes yet completely ignore all his good points.
