Had enough...

...long time reader, firs time poster...
Cant stand it anymore, I've had enough.
How the hell is Stewart Downing anywhere near our first team. He's a joke of a footballer.
Somehow he's our leading goalscorer but the boy is a disgrace...
Defenders of Downing I ask you...
When has he won a 50-50?
When has he ever left 'some one for dead'
When has he put a decent cross in?
When has he tracked back (Not fucking walking, I mean ran back and put a tackle in)

you've had enough. You "support" a Premier League football team, one of the most succesful teams in the top flight of English football that is going through a tricky spell, and it's all too much for you? Put yourself in the shoes of a supporter of Bournemouth, Portsmouth, Sheff Wed or any number of teams that are facing or have faced administration over the years and you'll know what tough times really are all about. We are all very, very lucky by comparison.

Decent cross?
You haven't seen Albrighton's goal against Man United then? It was only two weeks ago.

Stewart Downing overall has been very very good this season for us. I also think he is our top scorer.

you joking mate, Downing has been one of our best this season and today I thought he battled more than most and yes including tracking back.

Downing has been a consistant performer this season whilst others around him (Dunne, Warnock, A Young...) clearly have not.

I've had enough of Downing not Villa. Christ.
I have paid enough over the years to have an opinion and he's an absolute joke.
The fella won Boro's player of the year two years in a row?!? Jesus Christ. How?
The 'cross' to Albrighton I could do. Not exactly Beckham-esque.

You are clearly on a wind up, as there appears to be no logic to this.

I suppose that you were on McGrath's back when he was having a bad time as well.

Err, Downing is a much improved player compared to last season. He's played very well for us this season... I think your harsh criticism of him is unfair.

Downing has put in some decent performances this season but he has also been anonymous quite a few times, the guy has talent do doubt but his application lets him down too often, we dont have to many choices, there are too many players putting in below par performances but if they are fit they play

I'd have him down as our best performer this season .
Its all about opinions.

I think he's quality although I admit I think he has more to give. I think if GH can really get into him we will have an exellant player on our hands. Also, he wouldn't be in my top few under- achievers so far this season. But you are entitled to your opinion and a mate of mine who is also a season ticket holder shares your opinion. Although so long as Dunne is in the team my mate hasn't got much bile left for Downing.

Just like Ash, they need better players around them. As much as I'm thrilled to see Hogg and Bannan they can't be relied on at such an young age to anchor the midfield. It puts added pressure on players like Ash and Downing to be perfect in everything else they do because if they're not the counter attack is up against that midfield and what has been a poor defence. Blaming either of them for the current situation is harsh in my opinion.
