I'm just so bloody angry and frustrated as to how we threw it away. Crewe were disatrously bad, we could of got more than five easily in that game. Worst side we've played this season. Yet we manage to fook it up in the last 15 minutes. The worst thing is, I could see it coming, we just sat back and never felt a need to get out of first gear. Plus some of our own fans singing songs about certain players being better than other players didn't help.

How the fook did we do that? Not happy at all.

Saw the pen on SSN earlier and thought it looked a bit soft but I will be the last person to complain!

At least he does get forward and he does make things happen. I don't see much of that happening with City's current l;eft-back options. Nor do I think our free-kicks/corners are anything special.

But in the same sense, he was in a defence which let near-on 15 shots get in on the keeper and be ripped apart for 75 minutes. He's genius however because he won a soft peno and he can hit a decent free-kick every now and again.

I never said they were well rounded footballers either :unsure: If you want to know I don't rate Mattock (but still think he's better at playing left back than Sheehan), Edworthy and Brown are short term cover anyway, Hayles looks alright when coming on as a substitute (he was actually brilliant at Millwall) but I'd quite happily get rid, and I rate Berner.

In our time with us in the first team Sheehan wasn't this incredible attacking full back. His goals and assists were from set pieces, not from bombing down the touchline and whipping incredible balls in. Of your lists of faults with the current team the only thing I think Sheehan would help with is "the lack of imaginative or fast/accurate set-pieces". I don't think he would help in any of the others ("the lack of pace in too many areas, the lack of collective support, the lack of sufficient off-the-ball movement and the increasingly poor passing").

Edit: Paragrahps

In fairness he was a neat dribbler and could cut inside. I remember him making a couple of lovely runs against Forest. Unfortunately for him he's not very good at defending but doesn't have the pace or skill to beat his man required for left-wing. As a wing-back he'd be good, but who plays wing-backs anymore?

Maybe if he teaches himself a couple of tricks and works on his explosive speed a little he could adapt his game for left-wing, but I don't see him ever really making it as a left-back. He did have quite a bit of skill, Thracian's not wrong, he just had attributes in the wrong places (and a hot-head).

Sheehan out for rest of the season

So we won't have to worry about him on the last day...

From what I gather he laid on an absolute sitter which would have given Crewe a draw against Millwall but the chance was somehow squandered.

Anyway I'm quite pleased he'll not be playing against us. I'm always uneasy when former players are among the opposition.

It was on Big League Weekend last night.

Apparently Crewe have been quite impressed with him. He may end up there on a permanent basis.

What's your favourite team again?

1. ManU

2. Chelsea

3. Leicester

Thank you.

If a player like Sheehan can't fit in well at Crewe then I really would be concerned about his prospects. Sheehan's biggest battle is going to be with himself and his temperament rather than his ability and I think Crewe could do far worse than signing him.

I've always thought of him as a much more dangerous attacking full-back than Mattock and, sad to say, nothing has served since to change that view, apart from that silly game Sheehan had when Grayson took over at Leeds.

He might have made a decent central midfielder, provided he had a partner in midfield covering for him and doing a lot of legwork.

He never found his luck whilst being with us and the same happened at Leeds. Maybe Crewe can act as a catalyst to re-initiate his career.
