Hated the moment when a W Ham player was injured (not at all seriously) and Dan stopped the play when we could have taken advantage of the situation. 1
CosbehFox Posted 13 February 2022 Posted 13 February 2022 Weird game from him where bookended by two errors, he plays very well and keeps Antonio quiet

Comes in when we're down to the bare bones and does v well for a few games then more and more errors start to creep in without him being totally shit. Very good/useful as a back up utility player but not as a regular starter. 1 1
HybridFox Posted 13 February 2022 Posted 13 February 2022 He looked sh*** today but not as sh*** as the alternative
Fox92 Posted 13 February 2022 Posted 13 February 2022 About time we finally got rid of players like this and bring quality in. 4

Who are you bringing in as 4th or 5th choice? Who'd realistically be happy when everyone is fit to not be in the squad? Oh and also has the ability if we really needed to play right back or centre mid? 1

Did you not read that we have conceded 13 goals more this season than the bottom team… Burnley Let that sink in for a moment We have been disastrous defensively this season and all we hear is that Amartey would be 4th or 5th choice… Well he hasn’t been. He’s been playing an awful lot recently and we continue to ooze goals like blood from a wound Evans is over… he’ll not get back to fitness now I don’t think. Fofana is still out and the jury is out on whether he’ll ever be the same when he finally returns. The club needs a complete overhaul of its centre backs. Amartey is not good enough. Vestergaard is not good enough. Soyuncu is a shadow of the former player. Whilst people still bang on about how ‘decent’ Amartey has played let me say it once more… 13 goals conceded this season MORE than Burnley We need much better than this Edited 13 February 2022 by Col city fan
Ric Flair Posted 13 February 2022 Posted 13 February 2022 Our 3 players who have returned from AFCON disappointment have slotted in nicely in to further disappointment and poor performance, all 3 of them have been crap.

Because in reality unless we are one of the big 4 clubs we are never going to have/afford or keep happy 4 centre halves to the standard you're demanding. Probably a bit weirder thinking this is an actual probability then defending a squad player with obvious limitations who if we didn't have an injury crisis would play probably 5 times a season Edited 13 February 2022 by Tommy Fresh

Then Dan being a "decent" 4th or 5th choice CB isn't such an issue, while someone like Nelson comes through. Big Dan starting a few games a season when we're desperate isn't the same problem as him being a regular starter. 2

I say again… having to rely on Amartey even as a mythical ‘squad player’ shows just how calamitous our defensive situation is. It needs starting from scratch in the summer. Edited 13 February 2022 by Col city fan
MalletFox Posted 13 February 2022 Posted 13 February 2022 Thought he was OK in the main in terms of handling Antonio, but then was potentially at fault for both goals (assuming he was playing Bowen on). The other infuriating thing was when he stopped play for Antonio when he went down, Rodgers has talked about mentality a lot and that was pathetic, we’re 1-0 down, move the bloody ball and get up the pitch, but no, we’re too nicey bloody nice. We must be the softest team in the league by a mile!!!

It needs starting from scratch in the summer. Did you not read the injury crisis part? Before Fofana's injury he was 4th choice, after Vestergaard signed he was 5th choice with everyone fit. Again if you stop avoiding the question it might help? Because you still haven't suggested a viable 4th choice who is as good as you would like? Starting from scratch? Again you'll be disappointed when we don't blow our entire budget on 4 first choice centre halves. Edited 13 February 2022 by Tommy Fresh 1
st albans fox Posted 13 February 2022 Posted 13 February 2022 reading the above, the first goal wasn’t his fault the equaliser - he gets out jumped by Dawson - that’s happened to way better players than Dan over the years I thought he did ok today 1

And Soyuncu has been pants for months Amartey is not good enough to rely upon for any length of time in the Premiership. The club have fooked up good and proper by not addressing its defensive lack of strength in depth, during the summer. Meanwhile, it’s a good job we can still score goals. If not, we’d be in a major relegation scrap: https://www.premierleague.com/stats/top/clubs/goals_conceded Edited 13 February 2022 by Col city fan
lcfc_forever Posted 13 February 2022 Posted 13 February 2022 Amartey played a role in both goals we conceded. I think playing Soy and Amartey together is asking for trouble. They've both played better with Ndidi alongside either of them. So has to be Ndidi alongside either Amartey or Soy until Fofana returns. He works hard but lacks the quality we need. 1
Mike Oxlong Posted 14 February 2022 Posted 14 February 2022 No doubt the defence has been crap but the obsession with blaming the 4/5th choice centre back in the squad for that is frankly weird 1
ScrumpyJack Posted 14 February 2022 Posted 14 February 2022 Don’t have much confidence in him playing at the back alongside Soyuncu - feel Dan would do better with a hard-man organiser, i.e. prime Morgan But he’s very likeable isn’t he.
