Quote from: nick harper on May 24, 2011, 03:11:05 PMWhy does he need to make killer passes? His job is to win the ball, link up play and give it to a claret and blue shirt - something he has done increasingly impressively as the season has gone on because this manager believes in him.I would hope Delph would be able play that role more impressively over time but he is not ready yet. In the meantime, I would certainly want Reo-Coker to stay.Why does he need to make a killer pass ? His role is supposed to be versatile. He is a professional footballer. And we have one of the most prolific scorers in the prem waiting to recieve the pass. And his link up play is part of that. Bent has got a claret and blue shirt on .......

No surprise to read the usual bollocks from the hard of thinking about his passing. A visit to either the Guardian Chalkboards or the opticans is highly recommended.
I like him but I cant defend the indefendable.
What a silly postJust because he is not a "world star" does not mean he is not a good player.Put it this way, would Darren Bent get in Man U's side ahead of Rooney and HernandezProbably not - Oh - he must be crap then !Granted, NRC is not as good a midfielder as Lionel Messi - but we haven't got Lionel Messi have we - nor are we likely to !
No, I have read the post, it states he couldn't get into the top 6 so why do people think he is great.You are right, he wouldn't get in the top 6Man U - Park plays in his position - for me Park has been player of the season and deserved it far more than ParkerChelsea have EssienMan City have Yaya Toure - who is so good he was the mainstay of the Barca sideArsenal - well they actually lack a player and I even think NRC is better than their defensive midfieldersSpurs - Modric - who is now wanted by Man U - enough saidSo, because NRC is not as good as maybe the top 5 players in the world in that position - you don't think we should appreciate him ?.Bit of a coincidence that under MON , Gerard or even between the two , and McAllister - our best results have come in when he is in the side - bit wierd don't you think ?I am not saying he is Lionel Messi - but neither is Sun-Ji Park - but you take Park out the Man U side and see what happens. NRC is a very very very good player in what he does, and what he does is not found very often, and those players who do it well, cost a bloody fortune.

A visit to either the Guardian Chalkboards or the opticans is highly recommended.You are right, his passing is extremely adequate. He's up there with the best when it comes to moving the ball 3 yards to either the left or right, he's top class when it comes to receiving the ball from wide, turning and pushing it back to the centre half. It's more than 2 years since he completed a forward pass but then you can't have everything. <wink>
