I expect players to be at least be able to find a team mate with a simple pass or not give away the ball away in dangerous positions, but he’s guilty of this more often than not and puts unnecessary pressure on our defence time and time again. Simply not good enough. Get rid.And that’s not “baiting” or “hounding”…it’s just my honest opinion on him.It's hyperbolic nonsense."Stealing a living"??So you don't fancy him, but the vitriol seeps from the words.We’re both entitled to our opinions and they clearly differ. From your comments today, it’s quite clear that you do fancy him. “Vitriol” is hyperbolic nonsense but if you think it seeps from my words then that’s because I say it as I see it, and call out a turd when I see a turd. On the other hand, you think he was the “pick of the midfield by a country mile” and I would say that “delusion” seeps from your words.A neutral perspective if I may. Moving forward, we need better. He's a midtable player who has served us well enough but now we need better quality across the whole midfield. Including Nakamba.

Literally stealing a living as a professional footballer. I expect players to be at least be able to find a team mate with a simple pass or not give away the ball away in dangerous positions, but he’s guilty of this more often than not and puts unnecessary pressure on our defence time and time again. Simply not good enough. Get rid.And that’s not “baiting” or “hounding”…it’s just my honest opinion on him.

Including Nakamba.S67 is a good voice of reason and I personally find he writes here with good sense and fairness.

I think he gave the ball away once.
Quote from: LeeB on May 16, 2022, 12:35:29 PMI think he gave the ball away once.According to Whoscored, our loss of possession stats were as follows:Marv - 1McGinn - 5Luiz - 4Ings - 4The only thing with Marv was that it was in a dangerous area on the edge of the area. Other than that he pretty much did his job. The other midfielders, not so much.

I’m sure some statto will correct me but that’s how it looked to me. Just my honest opinion based on my observations on the day.
