Stuliasz Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 I know its only two games but as Yeates has his own thread and as there seems to be a mixed opinion on Jarrett so far, I thought it was worth starting the debate. I can't comment on Jarrett in terms of the Ipswich game but I thought at the Cov game, yes he worked hard but he doesn't have confidence when he is in possession. I thought he was generally very slow to distribute and needs more confidence in his own ability.

Bluefoxtim Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 On this occassion I don't think it is down to confidence, I just think he is a run-of-the-mill midfielder. Nothing special about him, never gonna set a game alight. He'll do the job, nothing more.
Aeropars Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 I thought he did very well first half. Maybe ran out of steam second though. Better than what we had previously.

Aeropars Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 Well, i think... maybe. Perhaps if he is more concistent. Although I dont agree with him playing on the wing... hes no winger.
Aeropars Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 Well... a highly informative contribution to the forum I see!
Independiente Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 It's no coincidence we have won both games he has played, but then that's cos he gets involved, rather than poncing around for 89 minutes like a twat and convincing morons that he's a good footballer by playing one or two pretty passes and scoring a 25-yarder every 30 games.
Manwell Pablo Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 Well... a highly informative contribution to the forum I see! I can have you banned. Do you want to be banned? wont look good on your CV that.
Thracian Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 We need one touch or two touches at most in midfield. Look at Arsenal. See how swiftly they move their opponents and make it doubly hard by passing the ball hard and low. It's all about time. A straight line is shorter than an arc between the same points and made with one touch the demands on the opponent increase still further. For me both Johnson and Jarrett take too long and Johnson hits far to many lofted passes which rarely arrive are easily read. Not saying they shouldn't learn. The trick, of couse, is the accuracy under pressure. Even Andy King could be faster in this deparment but Tom Tejan-Sie's a good example of a one and two-touch midfielder. Rarely over elaborates but has the quality to keep on the move after delivering his pass. Same as Porter. A team-mates dream really cos he always provides options which Leicester started to lose second half as people tired.
Manwell Pablo Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 Yes, as in the ruber band version. Jolly good joke, old "chap"
Independiente Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 Porter was shite second half. Couldn't control it to save his life.
Flexx Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 He can never get the ball out of his feet but he's very lively and is definitely worthy of a place in the team for Burnley. I would say stick with the same 11 for Burnley (Unless there's any injuries)
Flynny Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 It's no coincidence we have won both games he has played, but then that's cos he gets involved, rather than poncing around for 89 minutes like a twat and convincing morons that he's a good footballer by playing one or two pretty passes and scoring a 25-yarder every 30 games. He is more effective than Williams. I thought he was unlucky today. Made silly errors at crucial moments. If he had two goals instead of two air-shots we'd all be raving about him. He gets the ball from defence to attack better than Williams and links up with all areas of the pitch, wing, strikers, and defense.

Flynny Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 Who mentioned Williams? Oh, you were talking about that OTHER massively overrated guy with the work ethic of a tree stump!? Hang on...
Manwell Pablo Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 Oh, you were talking about that OTHER massively overrated guy with the work ethic of a tree stump!? Hang on... Francis?
lookwhaticando Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 Oh, you were talking about that OTHER massively overrated guy with the work ethic of a tree stump!? Hang on... Any particular one? You're too vague, you need to give us a clue.
Fatbloke Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 Hang on, we have just won a local derby 3 v 0, why are you looking for negatives ? everyone played well today, the new players will need time to settle in and get to know their team mates and with that in mind have done very well indeed, bring on the Clarets !!!
