Hobbs + Morrison + Weale

[hackneyfox]

Morrison hasn't had a good season and we have hopefully signed 2 better replacements, one of which is left sided.

Thanks for goals and many of your past performances but it's time to move on.

[cc_star]

You do know we have beaten other teams under Sven than the last two don't you?

Remind me how many of his players were playing the game we shipped 6 at Pompey.

If you want to abuse me rather than debate points then feck off from replying to me - before I get abusive too

The Pompey defeat was a freaking different manager, From most of the comments you make when referring to games during those 1st 9 games of the season I'm not sure you get that.

Plenty of people agree with the point I raised, there's nothing negative in it. We played well for 2 games, more importantly we don't look like conceding everytime the opposition attacks and Weale, Hobbs & Morrison have performed admirably

And the question I asked at the end is that; as Davies completely lost form, obviously didn't want to play for us - Perhaps Sven should have dropped him, rather than waiting for him to walk out... All perfectly valid points I believe, except in your abusive little mind.

[themotivator]

poll poll poll poll. is morro still shit?

i'm not starting it

[cc_star]

... when compared to Hobbs - who i think needs to be given every opportunity rather than players on short term loans (unless they are quite obviously and significantly better.

Exactly!!!

Morrison seemed to revert to hhof ball into the channels.

I agree, he is obviously more limited, a) but he does a good job at stopping people getting past him gets stuck in, & hoofing it is preferable to making a bad pass b) The best players don't always make the best team it's about getting the mix right c) enthusiasm & effort trumps ability and no enthusiasm & effort

He will be replaced though, & he'll probably leave, shame as he's just proved himself a worthy stand-in & a good player to have in the squad

[Captain...]

There was also the presence of Berner, Morrison is obviously going to be more comfortable and confident playing with the same players he has played with for the last 2 years and Berner would have given more defensive cover and experience than Cunningham, whilst not providing the same outlet.

[ajthefox]

I'm hardly convinced the defence is back to what it was under Pearson. Bruno was great today and that helped the two of them, but there were times where we looked pretty shakey. Weale was poor too in all honesty. He wasn't stopping their goal, but his kicking was fooking atrocious. He gave posession away on numerous accounts and to be honest, it's not the hardest job to do, they don't have to be fooking pinpoint passes.

However, I think Sven should stick with Hobbs and Morrison because they clearly have a good relationship and being consistent with the back 4 is a must.

So, we have people saying that we won the last two because it was a Pearson team. Then we have people saying you can't count the Portsmouth game as it was under a different manager. Even though the team had more Pearson signings in it than against Swansea. So we win and it's down to Pearson, but if we lose it's down the the current manager in charge. That's what some are basically saying.

Back to your post, I am well aware of what you are saying. You want to forget how shit these players have been and are trying to say that had he played them all along we'd have picked up even more points along the way. All if's and buts. On the whole all of your posts are either a dig at Sven or a bit of a backhanded like this one.

You can get abusive if you want, I'll just ban you then for breaking forum rules.

Take a look at my original post, I never mentioned Pearson, Pearson's team or anything

You then replied with "Mr Miserable is back" are you a mod? If so that's a horrendous image of the site you're giving off if your not a mod your an experienced poster and shouldn't be throwing insults at people.

You really are vindictive, are you a traffic warden when you're not a mod (if you are, I can't see on my phone)? Some bloke in Germany in the 30's & 40's had fewer control issues than you simply because you may have a minuscule amount of power to edit other peoples posts?

Why are you going out of your way to twist my words?

Would it have hurt Sven to change things before he was forced to change them by one person being injured & the other walking out?

And as for previous managers, players play different under different managers any fan knows that so because Hobbs & Morrison were poor against Portsmouth that means they'll always be poor? What about the past 180mins restricting a good home team (Pearson's team) & Swansea, 2nd in the league to hardly any chances but not only that looked a pretty solid back 4 as well, Sven obviously knows how to organise a team better than Sousa does, Faz is a respected coach pairing Hobbs, Morrison & Weale in effort to stem the flow of goals isn't beyond the realms of possibility and we could be few points better off

Nothing more, nothing less. Anything else is your words!

I assume you'll make an effort to have the last word again, and twist my words, super-imposing your own meaning on them but don't bother checking back for my reply because life is too short to be involved with people as tedious, vindictive & manipulating as yourself. I'm only here for the craic, kill some time & talk about City, but if its this much hassle there are plenty of other places online where control-freaks are reigned in and importantly places where you aren't.

cc_star you are remarkable, you remind me of someone on 606. Your obvious inclinations are remarkably transparent, and then you play 'the victim'. Nobody's fooled by your response or your agenda. It's sad that forum's have relentless individuals who can berate people for their positivity, but when their own actions are questioned they play innocent and naive.

[Babylon]

I never said you did. Firstly, you replied to a post that I had posted to someone else, not you. Secondly, if you read my post again is says "Back to your post"... which I would hope clearly indicates I was not actually referring to your posts.

You then replied with "Mr Miserable is back" are you a mod? If so that's a horrendous image of the site you're giving off if your not a mod your an experienced poster and shouldn't be throwing insults at people.

My status as a mod has nothing to do with it. I'm here to enforce forum rules that are broken not to be lovely and welcoming to everyone. I think you have been overly critical of the manager, almost all of your posts recently have been critical of him, and i'm free to express that opinion of you... just as you have to me. If you think being called Mr miserable is really that insulting then god help you.

Would it have hurt Sven to change things before he was forced to change them by one person being injured & the other walking out?

It's all ifs and buts, you don't know, I don't know... we could have lost by more in other games had they played. Hardly reason to (in my opinion) take another swipe at the manager.

I assume you'll make an effort to have the last word again, and twist my words, super-imposing your own meaning on them but don't bother checking back for my reply because life is too short to be involved with people as tedious, vindictive & manipulating as yourself.

If you don't like someone having a different opinion and find it so upsetting block my posts.

My original post speaks for itself... If people want to read more into it then that's fine. There is no agenda other taking part in Leicester discussions on a Leicester website if there is an agenda it's people like your goodself saying there's an agenda and then people believing that to be the case.

Being replied to as mr miserable by the very same person who then said he'd ban me if I responded smacks of little hitler syndrome.

I notice a lot of people who have a lot of posts are intolerant of and occasionally bordering on extremely rude to newer members, if you want go make the website a members club for people who have over several posts then do so, but until then...

he godwin'd again! Not doing too well in this arguement.

The back 5 have been acceptable the past couple of games but lets not forget that, bar naughton in for neilson, it's the same defence that was made a mockery of in the first half at palace, and if you replaced weale with logan as well it would be the same defence that finished at fratton park.

And you say I twist posts? ha.

Calling someone Mr Miserable is hardly a rule break. Telling someone to feck off is on the verge, and you indicated you were going to get more abusive towards me.

No one gets banned for offering a differing opinion (i'd of banned Thracian three years ago if that was the case ) no one will get banned for calling someone an idiot, a plonker, miserable, traffic warden, internet nazi etc etc etc.

[Wymsey]

Morrison played well yesterday but i find him a little slow sometimes.

[Manwell Pablo]

What matters to me is that we seem to have a formation at last that suits and involves the best players we have right now. It's not a whole lot different from Pearson's but it does have more pace and movement. Whether it has more goals - or enough goals - remains to be seen. For me, having so few goals from two or our midfielders - Abe and Wellens - remains a worry. Wellens takes the positions on a few occasions but just refuses to shoot.

Abe is not there to score goals. Wellens fair enough.

[themotivator]

i was annoyed by wellens unwillingness to shoot yesterday as i have been on previous occasions this season. he can put them away, like he did vs donny. if he got close enough to work the keeper i'd be happy enough.

The Pompey defeat was a Michael Morrison horror show, who was in charge was irrelevant. Unless Sousa had him keeper training catching crosses all week.

[ithuriel]

Morrison did well enough yesterday but he is not premier quality by a long way.

Most of the time he hoofed or headed the ball, sometimes it was required, sometimes he could have brought the ball down and passed it instead if he was good enough.

All in all he is a good stand in but for where the club wants to be he is not first team quality.

Hobbs has played very well though and weale is decent.

[cc_star]

The Pompey defeat was a Michael Morrison horror show, who was in charge was irrelevant.

Course it was his horror show and he was rightly dropped.

I seem to remember us missing hundreds of chances in front of goal at a massively higher percentage than other teams seem to - but has Gallagher, Vasell & Co similarly been dropped?

No one's suggesting Morrison's going to get an international call-up or even win foxes player of the season, but picking a defence that can play well together can be more important than picking the best players, and at the very least when you're in a poor run having a look around at other options may have been the thing to do.

Who is in charge is highly relevant as players receive coaching all the time, they receive guidance of what do from the manager & coaching team. Under Sven, Faz & Powell we're a far better side when the opposition has the ball as people know what they are doing which under Sousa they didn't.

To suggest that who is in charge is irrelevant is to suggest that the manager is irrelevant

[breadandcheese]

I find it fascinating reading different people's views on our players.

These players made the playoffs last year. That doesn't mean they're premiership quality players but it does mean they can hold their own in this league.

The criticism of Morrison is mis-placed. He's a young player learning his trade who three seasons ago was playing non-league. The fact it's taken him this long to have a bad spell says a lot about him. So personally, I'll be disappointed if we sell him for £250K as he's a good player to have in the squad and his performance at the weekend proved that.

Lets not forget that Morrison could only just make the bench under Pearson last year on many occasions. He signed Neilson and then later Nobby to play there instead. To write him off is as bad as saying he is premier league quality.
