Following on from the Solly March edition of this question, I have been moved to add my own version.
This isn't about bedwetting. I just don't see what he brings to the team.
His passing is erratic.
Frankly he is no better than Duffy bringing the ball out.
He rarely wins a decisive header from defence.
He rarely wins a directed header in attack.
His tackles are often erratic and don't cleanly win the ball.
His long balls upfield rarely hit a Brighton player.
His positioning is dreadful in defence, rarely near a dangerous attacker.
Occasional tendency to dangle a leg indecisively near the ball to deflect it to no man's land.

I concede I don't like what he brings to the team, in fact I don't know what that is. For me, he is what Stephens or Barnes were to their detractors.
The BBC ranked his performance bottom apart from the subs against Saints which is where I place him most matches.
But interested to hear what others think.

As we reach the end of a particularly SHIT year, another poster lobs in a late attempt for the [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] award for the SHITTEST thread started.

FFS.

Watched any Celtic games lately?
Looked at any stats about progressive defenders ?

Here’s an idea for the title of your next thread:

‘Super Steve Earle talks shit - discuss’

I really hope our players don’t read this forum.

It's embarrassing.

Gotta love how this mindless drivel ALWAYS starts with words to the effect of:-

This isn't about bedwetting

moments before gallon upon gallon of piss is poured into NSC.

Life as a right-footed LCB is difficult and it shows from time to time when he has the ball, but defensively he's been dependable and no worse than his comrades in the back line and also brings some muscle to a team that is generally a bit meeky in that sense.

When we lose on Sunday because:-

Maupay's shot is blocked and hoofed up field
Vardy has outsprinted Webster from the halfway line.
Slotted the ball past Ryan - like he's done to just about every other keeper in world football.


I'll be so excited to read the thread:-

Tony Bloom not an owner - discuss

Well this hasn't gone well. I was hoping for a genuine discussion with views on both sides of the argument, but instead got the likes of Stat Brother and Mustafa's bollux. I expected better. Oh well.

Didn’t get past the third line. If you think he can’t bring the ball out better than Duffy then it’s really not worth a discussion.

You are way off line fella.

This is a late contender for most ****ish thread of 2020.
