Quote from: WALTERS WARRIORS on November 25, 2012, 08:26:09 PMDo not think we should be writing off KEA as an inportant MF he had a bad game yesterday by his standards but has been very good compared to say Reo C. He can break up play and can pass with a high success rate. Westwood is steadly becoming a very good player and will get better and better IMO. I am sure Lamberts scouts will have a few players identified for Jan ready to improve on what we have ..... comparing our midfielders to Reo C?why?why not compare to milner or barry?

Quote from: PaulWinch again on November 25, 2012, 08:42:41 PMYou say nobody who can pass. Westwood had 90% passing accuracy yesterday, and that was including some tricky through balls and switch passes. So he can absolutely certainly pass.really? thats it?Ray Wilkins would have had a 90% pass rate in every game he playedhis nickname?

Commentators over here made a big thing of how one of the reasons we looked fairly comfortable defensively was that Westwood had done such a good job marking Corzola out of the game - pre match they'd been going on about how Corzola makes Arsenal tick.

That really proves Westwood is having an impact already. Corzola is a world class player and Westwood was all over him. Got to admire Lamberts knowledge and faith in lower division players ......

You say nobody can pass, yet Westwood had 91% pass completion, and Bannan over 80%, with Bannan hitting 7 out of 7 successful long forward balls to a team mate. Your assertion is not opinion, it is a statement of disproved fact. Anyhow, got any worms?

Oddly eventhough he isn't experienced, he brings an air of experience to our midfield through his maturity and quality if that makes sense.

Westwood got man of the match in the papers I read this morning. Also he's made four starts and looked very assured.
I know Bannan got the stadium man of the match, what I said was in several papers Westwood got man of the match. It's all about differing opinions, but Westwood was excellent.
