Syteanric 1 Posted November 2, 2013 part of a midfield that struggled that struggled to finish much above mid table in the championship with Leeds.. I wonder where the rest of that midfield went? oh... wait... :| Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Redders Right Foot 22 Posted November 2, 2013 While tettey is out we only have three options.Johnson takes the tettey role - but slightly different. he must sit back, never pushing forward. make the great tackles he normally makes. and then only make 5 yrd sideways passes to a better passer of the ball.Play Fer in in tetteys spot and bring hoolahan back in. He would play the role excellently but it would be a waste of Fer.play howson takes tetteys role, fer takes howsons, hoolahan takes fers. this is the worst option because howson is shite at being a defensive midfielder and is much better roaming. the best option is option #1, and it is probably the option we will see forever.

ron obvious 1,473 Posted November 2, 2013 How about dropping Fer & Howson back a slot & putting Pilkington in Howson''s spot? It would be nice if Howson & Fer could interchange sometimes as well - one supports the attack while the other drops back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alby :) 0 Posted November 3, 2013 And to think this was the guy keeping David Fox out of the team for most of last season. F uck me, Foxy isn''t perfect but he''s better than BJ!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn''t go today but Bassong hasn''t been the rock he was last season by any means. And as a captain? well let''s just say he''s no Holt or Forbes! A year ago starting a game without Bassong was unthinkable. This season has told a different tale because if I remember rightly the games we started without Bassong were Everton 2-2, Hull 0-1, and Stoke 1-0. Four points from Three games and all of them good performances from the back four. Each time Bassong has gone straight back in. Hero to zero in a year?

Citizen Journalist Foghorn 0 Posted November 3, 2013 --- nutty nigel:Hero to zero in a year?And whether he is playing like a hero, or a zero, Bassong is still there on the teamsheet without fail.As an aside, club captain R Martin hasn''t been much better this season either.

Citizen Journalist Foghorn 0 Posted November 3, 2013 --- morty: Fox. LOLWhat is wrong with David Fox. He did an excellent job for us in this league just two seasons ago. I am pretty certain he would have done a better job alongside BJ than Howson managed last season.As it is, we have improved the squad and Fox has probably been left behind now. Not that results are any better of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aggy 739 Posted November 3, 2013 To be honest, other than the midfield three, has anyone been very good this season? The Howson, Fer, Tettey combo has mostly impressed but everyone else has blown hot and cold - at best! Johnson, for me, has missed a real trick today. It was the sort of game where I think he could actually have something to offer us - ie; a game where we needed someone to kick Aguero et al on the halfway line out of harm''s way. I don''t think he was any worse than anyone else necessarily (they were all dire) but he missed a really good opportunity to put himself about and show what he could offer us. The game really was screaming out for someone to play how he normally does. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GJP 79 Posted November 3, 2013 Basically always been of the same opinion of Johnson - decent enough player to have in the squad but not someone you really want as a regular in the team if we''re going to be a good Premier League side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tetteys Jig 830 Posted November 3, 2013 @Bradley4Johnson get a grip man, today, totally pathetic from a bad bunch, you were the worst. I praised you vs Soton but today, awful! #ncfcThere you go, told him in no uncertain terms. I have no faith in him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
