Living in London, and generally not much caring about football for quite some time, I haven't seen much of this current team.

 

I've been watching tonight, mainly in a rubber necking a car crash expectation.

 

Did we actually pay money for Ngog? Absolutely fucking dreadful player.

looks like he is fuckin injured agsin

might be just a Christmas injury

might be just a Christmas injury

 

 

 

Talking of which, has Nolan got his annual Christmas suspension yet ?

N'gog is far from dreadful

 

With his movement and link play we look alot better than with K Davies up front

Agreed entirely; if it's up in the air- forget it.

Into feet far better than KD. Get him fully fit, making them runs down the channels and we'll be o.k.

Couldn't agree more. Different option and a better option than Davies

Looked shattered in the second half tonight. No way he is fully fit. Wouldn't surprise me if that injury is something and nothing. I suspect there's a lot more to come from him.

i thought he was quite poor

 

but, his extra pace means the opposition have to defend deeper than when the lump starts

 

the lump who didn't get a run in the first 4 strikers tonight

Wasn't great tonight but did well for the first goal.

 

Just needs a run of games. Glad we have him.

He was poor tonight, but I've seen enough of him to know he's a very decent player.

 

Seriously lacking match fitness and sharpness

Jesus christ

 

win tonight and this is the thread you decide to start?

 

baffled!

Even if fit, he'll not be in the team for much longer.

 

Everyone knows Eggnog is just a December thing.

Created the first, created the space for the second. That's good enough for me in his first start in a while.

what he does do is run...

 

and run dacross the back four into the flanks stretching the defence ...with him and klasnic we look far more dangerous

 

he did look fucked and i think was more of a reason for going off

Agreed, and with Mark Davies running at em it opened up so much and had them all over the show

He did enough for me last night. Not in the same goalscoring class as a Sturridge or Anelka but we did only pay ?4m not ?20m for him so I am happy with his shift. He occupied their back four enough and him and Petrov gave us an out ball which has been lacking for most of the season.

Ngog will prove his worth when he gets fully fit and regular starts. Ive seen enough in the games he has played to suggest that he will do a good job for us. He was a bit rusty at times last night but his movement was good and he caused them problems.

 

The opposition defence has to drop deeper when he is playing because they cant leave too much space in behind. This gives our midfield more space to get into the game.

He gave the ball a bit a fair bit 2nd half but what he does have his pace and movement which puts defenders on the back foot and is ideal at the side of an intelligent player like klasnic if we're going to play 4 4 2 all the time. Pointless playing davies unless ur going to just lump it and even then he doesnt win the majority of headers/hold up the ball like he used to anyway. Leave Davies for when you're level/goal behind with 20 mins or so to go

His pace created the first goal.

 

I thought he did well but is clearly not fully fit.

You looked a different team with him uptop.

 

Yes he is crap, but having him certainly made you play the ball on the deck more.

 

looked decent in patches last night.

The same Mark Davies who only goes sideways or backwards apparently.......

One goal doesnt make up for him being shite for the last 12 months.

 

Its pretty ironic given your posts about Knight.

Ooh you were just waiting for that weren't you, you tinker

 

Davies hasn't been great but he's still good enough for our starting 11 and one if our best options to penetrate, goal scoring or not

 

What's this about Knight now??

My point is you were using mavies performance last night to justify he has been good.

 

In which case, knight has been good as he was brilliant last night.

 

Fact is, both have been shit.

 

My problem is( and i dont supoort or hate any one player over an other, reo choker aside) theres no consistency. Certain players get hounded no matter what and others can be as shit as they want and get nothing but support.

 

The prime example is mark davies, before last night hes done nothing since the blackpool home game last year and hes never had a bad word said about him. He never will by most.

 

Pratley comes in and plays half the games davies has and hes the worst signing ever, championship standard, all the usual lines.

 

Fact is, both have been as shit as each other. Only diffrrence is, one has has 3 times as many chances and is still untouchable.
