Matty Cash

It's not Cash's fault we have no better option at right back. We need to stop buying 19 year olds & buy an upgrade or at the minimum get some competition.

Whist he's OK defensively, he offers next to nothing going forward.

He did Clive, but the cross landed 25 yards from the byline.  It would have been some header, or volley from that cross.  When they shout 'pull it back', I don't think they quite expected to be pulled that far back (haha).

Cheers Steve but I was referring to the cross that ended up with the red card. People seem to be solely blaming Cash for the Konsa red card

Cash played well today , up there with Bizot and Mings

Imagine if it had been Pau in the first few minutes for Elanga's chance. It would have been the highlight of your whole season.

I was referring to the same cross my friend, albeit, tongue in cheek.  I think it was a terrible cross that caught half his team out and indirectly led to the red card because we were caught out for pace.  Not Cash's fault for the decision to place a hand on Gordon's shoulder though, that is purely down to Konsa.  He's a bloody idiot and gets on my nerves.

[PaulWinch again]

Indeed and I don’t think Ty played particularly well. He was fine, but Newcastle had very little punch. He and Konsa were both badly out of position for the Gordon red card too.

[Dave]

It was a poor cross, it doesn’t explain why they’d all sprinted towards the 6 yard box.

Because they were expecting a better cross. 

If every time in a game a misplaced cross lead to conceding we’d be seeing 30 goals a game.

Or more to the point in this case, if every bad cross led to someone being sent off, every match we play would be abandoned by half time for not having enough players.

[PaulWinch again]

Precisely - blaming Cash is all about the attitude to Cash, rather than the incident.

[Steve67]

That's because Cash is poor when going forward and needs replacing.  Attitude towards Cash?  Yes.  Towards any player that holds us back and isn't consistent enough for where we want to be in the league.  He's a decent defender and I guess that is his primary role, which is why he plays so often, but going forward, he might as well not bother.  Not directly his fault for the goal and there was around 100 metres from him to our goal, but it was a wank cross and I don't think anyone can deny it.  Sums up our overall performance yesterday where every other player got caught out and we didn't react well enough. 

[PaulWinch again]

Yeah but this point is entirely about people specifically blaming Cash for the red card above others.

[Sexual Ealing]

It's not really about that cross yesterday - as has been repeatedly highlighted, everyone makes bad passes/crosses sometimes - the problem is that he can't be trusted to do anything useful with a football.

[aj2k77]

Bottom half player in a top half team, that's why he stands out as poor often.

Which is massive hyperbole. Also not wishing to go over again, but there was plenty of commentary on here about that specific cross being the reason for the red card above all else.


On the more general point, clearly ideally we’d have better than Cash but it’s not as terrible as some make out.

[VILLA MOLE]

Considering he was a winger the end product isnt always great .  I love his heart and energy great servant for the club

If we're calling out hyperbole, let's have a go at tautology too! And wouldn't 'massive hyperbole' in itself be hyperbolic?
