Tielemans63 Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Get rid of Nuge and Wes? Great idea. Jettison our captain and 20goal striker. Fantastic.
glenelgfox Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Frustrating but a point away to a team desperate to make the top 6 is certainly better than none. The edge has definitely gone from the overall field play since promotion. I hope the chance to wrap it up this weekend and atone for the last home game gives us back our edge.
DennisNedry Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Mahrez and Drinkwater were excellent. Dyer was so poor it was like playing with 10 men for the whole game... why him over Knockaert?
Bryn Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Holy shit at the vitriol here, unbelievable. Does the squad need strengthening? Yes. Do the players deserve this stick when they're about to win the league? Christ no, what the fck is this?!
Guest ttfn Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Pearson can't be sentimental towards some of these players for next season. Some of them won't be good enough next season. Morgan Dyer Hammond Wasilewski GTF Won't be good enough unfortunately. I think that is very, very, very harsh on Morgan (who did not play at all well today).
hackneyfox Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 I don't get all the Hammond hate? He comes in does a job and gets on with it nothing flash or exciting but from what I have seen doesnt make many mistakes. Do we always need to have a player we don't like and get on the back of? Reading are a decent side, a good away point. It's not hate but do you think he should be in a premier squad? 2 centre half also desperately needed.
MGLCFC Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Typically of some fans - hey we're top of the league. Nugent has been a key part of that. As has Morgan et al. I'll ask a question - those who are moaning, would you have taken a promotion back in August?
Guest Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Mahrez excellent. Dyer doesn't offer a lot other than running fast. and goals, and assists but other than that yeah!
VLC86 Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Dyer doesn't offer a lot other than running fast. Did he do that much?
MC Prussian Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 We're wobbling across the finishing line. I'm a bit disappointed by the effort from some players tonight, Morgan, Dyer, Hammond and Nugent didn't have a particularly good game. We were unlucky not to score two or three, but then again, Reading could feel about the same. So, a draw is a fair result. Also, to the caller on the phone-in - your sense of entitlement ("I'm paying and driving all the way down and was expecting better") is stretching my nutsack.
Sharpe's Fox Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Only half the side were in the game, but a point is a point. Hopefully a bit more desire against QPR.
Simmo86 Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 This place next season is going to be a fooking nightmare. lol
The Doctor Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Ponegbrynak should be taking a long hard look at himself, because he was an embarrassment tonight. Player of his size and build should not be going down because a player breathed near him.
GingerrrFox Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 We cannot afford to be sentimental when it comes to new contracts and keeping players. Dyer looks like his pace has gone and without it he is finished as a player. Nugent back to his usual moaning, shit arse self. Wes and Wasyl struggled against the cheating Russian so imagine what they would be like against the likes of Andy Carroll and Ricky Lambert. Need to prove they can step up. Hammond, not good enough. De Laet and Schlupp looked very good going forwards. Still need to focus on improving their defensive play but very promising and pace is crucial at the next level in those positions. Schmeichel, Mahrez, Vardy and that beautiful man Drinkwater all deserve the chance to shine on the big stage. I think they will only get better for the step up in class of opposition and some of their play was majestic tonight. Mahrez and Drinkwater in particular were sublime at times.
hackneyfox Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Get rid of Nuge and Wes? Great idea. Jettison our captain and 20goal striker. Fantastic. Being captain doesn't make you a premier quality player. Way too slow and finally people are noticing that he can't jump, a major fault in a centre half, especially with a short goalie who won't come for crosses.
Devonfox1884 Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 I think it would've been different if vardy's goal had counted. Looked just about onside from $ky's replays...
AKCJ Posted 14 April 2014 Author Posted 14 April 2014 It's funny how shit we played and yet we took a point away from home against a side just outside the play offs. Goes to show how good we are.
lestajigs Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Good point, games like this strike me how far we have come this season, pressing for the win, last season we would of been hanging on !! Solid!!
Cropwellfox Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Last 15 was comical, Reading couldn't keep the ball in play and we decided to have a sponsored walk. Knocky for Lloyd and Moore for and Was on Saturday. James for Hammond if he's fit. Problem is not sure about King and Drinkwater playing together so unless we throw Cain or Watson in from the u21s then Hammond is the cover option in there.
sdb Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Mahrez and Drinkwater best players on the pitch by an absolute mile. Agreed. Why? I think that they combine sheer talent with relentless work ethic and desire to win. Not sure many others out there could claim the same. Not that we were poor, but lacked that extra 10%. Disappointed with the 2 CB's and Nugent tonight. Hammond was OK for me.
Swarles Barkley Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 A point away to a top 6 team on the back of a poor result and now 7pts clear. I for one am chuffed
hackneyfox Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Typically of some fans - hey we're top of the league. Nugent has been a key part of that. As has Morgan et al. I'll ask a question - those who are moaning, would you have taken a promotion back in August? They have all been heroes this season, everyone of them. That doesn't mean we can't doubt their aptitude for the premier.
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 14 April 2014 Posted 14 April 2014 Wanted 100 points should really have got it but looks unlikely now, but you never know. 1-1 is decent. Shit defence again for goal though
