November 16, 201213 yr Makes sense, but if he goes out on loan and plays a blinder, they want to buy him but we want him back cos he looks the part. Or he plays garbage so we are prepared to sell but nobody wants to buy because of that ?
November 16, 201213 yr Wind up right? Best right back. The guy has played about 4 games. How many games do you need to watch Messi play to decide he is better than any of our current players?
November 16, 201213 yr How many games do you need to watch Messi play to decide he is better than any of our current players? I know what you're saying, but I've only seen Riley play well once and average at best on his other appearances, so on that basis I wouldn't set my stall out and say he's the best right back at the club. For my money Ricketts is currently the best right back at the club To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if Riley never played for the first team ever again Edited November 16, 201213 yr by CWP
November 16, 201213 yr On his day Ricketts is our best LB, best RB and best centre half. This. But emphasis on, on his day.
November 17, 201213 yr He's rarely terrible But equally rarely outstanding He been a very decent signing IMO And I was far from convinced when he first appeared
November 17, 201213 yr On his day Ricketts is our best LB, best RB and best centre half. Bet he's knackered
November 17, 201213 yr Last season we would send players to the championship on loan for experience, now we are at this level week in week out why not play him and get the experience around players he knows? Loads of games this year, ricketts cant play ever single game can he?!
November 17, 201213 yr why not play him and get the experience around players he knows? Perhaps because the management don't think he's actually that good yet, and they would rather he did his learning somewhere else where it won't cost us points
November 17, 201213 yr The games he played in last season for us, he was impressive, he was amazin against stoke
November 17, 201213 yr Have been a big fan of ricketts But for me he's been poor this season. I expected better from him. Still my first choice full back though
November 17, 201213 yr Have been a big fan of ricketts But for me he's been poor this season. I expected better from him. Still my first choice full back though I hope its not entirely a mental aspect since coming back from injury, it may very well contribute to some of his performances though.
November 17, 201213 yr I hope its not entirely a mental aspect since coming back from injury, it may very well contribute to some of his performances though. Robbie Elliott like perhaps?? He had loads of counselling around his return as his head was fucked after the leg break Was never the same again
November 17, 201213 yr The games he played in last season for us, he was impressive, he was amazin against stoke And then he got torn to shreds a week later away at West Brom
November 17, 201213 yr Robbie Elliott like perhaps?? He had loads of counselling around his return as his head was fucked after the leg break Was never the same again Didn't Diouf have to overcome an injury mentally too and BSA sent him to the same sports councilor that cisse went to? It would play on a full backs mind due to the amount of twisting and turning and sprinting you are going to have to do, hope it isn't an issue because he can be very useful being able to play across the entire back four.
November 17, 201213 yr The games he played in last season for us, he was impressive, he was amazin against stoke And the others?
November 17, 201213 yr as mentioned, he was exposed at west brom tell me a defender who looked good under captain clueless
November 17, 201213 yr as mentioned, he was exposed at west brom tell me a defender who looked good under captain clueless I'm not saying he's no good. I haven't a clue. Some folk have seen him once and put him up with Banks and Hartle. FWIW I think Josh Vela will captain England in Brazil.
November 17, 201213 yr I'm not saying he's no good. I haven't a clue. Some folk have seen him once and put him up with Banks and Hartle. FWIW I think Josh Vela will captain England in Brazil. Sorry Enzo he can't The press reserved that for Phil Jones when he transferred to the red filth
November 17, 201213 yr Sorry Enzo he can't The press reserved that for Phil Jones when he transferred to the red filth Injuries permitting, natch.
November 17, 201213 yr I'm not saying he's no good. I haven't a clue. exactly where i'm at think he's more chance of offering us something good than tyrone, but with 3 right backs it makes sense to get him some games
