v6rat Posted 18 January 2015 Posted 18 January 2015 Wow This is getting ridiculous now, what else can we blame on the guy My cup of tea has gone cold whilst reading this thread on Nugent, so that's his fault as well.
fleckneymike Posted 18 January 2015 Author Posted 18 January 2015 You're seriously thinking that the below two points are true??: 1) Wasilewski only committed that reckless foul because of a mis controlled touch by Nugent >Absolutely ridiculous to suggest this. Was does those stupid fouls all the time. It had nothing to do with Nugent. More so the skill of Bojan, and Wasilewski's hot head 2) Wasilewski CHOSE not to get closer to Bojan before the goal > Again, absolutely ridiculous. Bojan scored a fantastic goal from a half chance. Was was never getting anywhere near him and I don't blame him for the goal. Sometimes, you just have to concede that a goal is a good goal. Not look for a scapegoat. For the record, I don't think Nugent is good enough but to blame him for other player's errors is crazy. 1. He does indeed commit stupid fouls all the time, he comitted this particular stupid foul - the only stupid foul he was booked for - trying to win a ball Nugent had needlessly lost. 2. Watch the goal, he stands off and stands off and stands off. Now if I'm being entirely honest I'd personally point the finger at Matt Elliott's MOTM Konchesky for failing to disposes Walters in the build up

Bojan beat a couple of players before he even got to Wasilewski 2) I thought Wes was more at fault for allowing Walters (who was impressive) to get to the ball first.
BlueJoe Posted 18 January 2015 Posted 18 January 2015 Wow This is getting ridiculous now, what else can we blame on the guy Erm.... Well I heard he doesnt recycle so global warming is all his fault!
AspectFox Posted 18 January 2015 Posted 18 January 2015 Wow This is getting ridiculous now, what else can we blame on the guyThe lack of clean drinking water in South Sudan is clearly his fault.
jamesmilner Posted 18 January 2015 Posted 18 January 2015 I cant see him playing for any other prem team , other than us !! nuff said !!
Babylon Posted 18 January 2015 Posted 18 January 2015 Please tell me this thread is a joke. If not... have a word FFS.
MPH Posted 18 January 2015 Posted 18 January 2015 Fleckneymike... you've had a mare with this thread...
Callabinho Posted 19 January 2015 Posted 19 January 2015 This forum has plummeted into the realms of idiocy, there's always been a difference of opinions, and the usual meltdown after losses, but this season it's an apocolypse every time we concede a goal.....
Bayfox Posted 19 January 2015 Posted 19 January 2015 Wow This is getting ridiculous now, what else can we blame on the guy iS Wow This is getting ridiculous now, what else can we blame on the guy IS, national debt, man city costing me my bet.
Stadt Posted 19 January 2015 Posted 19 January 2015 I don't get everyone's problem with Nugent. Apart from Cambiasso, he has the best footballing brain in our team. He is class, sure he misses a few good chances, but you wouldn't see Vardy get in to those positions would you? Nugent's footballing intelligence is dreadful, takes far too long to do simple things.
Tommy G Posted 19 January 2015 Posted 19 January 2015 It was bloody freezing on saturday, Nugents fault!
Bamba's Babes Posted 19 January 2015 Posted 19 January 2015 Blaming Nugent for other players getting booked is quite cynical from fans. Nugent didn't tell James to go for that tackle, did he? He didn't give James a choice. If James had pulled out then imagine the uproar he'd recieve if Villa went on to score. His lack of awareness and football-brain severely hampers this team.
BigMicky Posted 19 January 2015 Posted 19 January 2015 He didn't give James a choice. If James had pulled out then imagine the uproar he'd recieve if Villa went on to score. His lack of awareness and football-brain severely hampers this team. James didn't have to go over the ball either.
okie fox Posted 19 January 2015 Posted 19 January 2015 What does Nugent contribute to the team? Against Stoke he had one decent effort on goal, one breakaway when he fell over after being caught up from behind, and didn't keep possession well. Unlike Rooney, for example, he doesn't drop back into midfield when needed to win the ball back.
shailen Posted 19 January 2015 Posted 19 January 2015 Why are people slagging Nugent for? Yes he has missed some sitters recently, but he remains the only player that looks like scoring. None of the strikers made an impact against Stoke so they all deserve equal criticism imo. Can people not see how Nugent links up play. Dropping deeper in the hole, he usually finds the right pass and starts attacks. His late runs into the box look a real threat at times. Everytime we lose, it seems that Nugent is the sole reason, yet on our three game unbeaten run, no one seemed to say anything about him despite him playing well. Scapegoating. Kramaric may come in and take his position, and it is evident that he is a better player than Nuge. But we have bigger problems in other positions, especially defensively, which I am shocked as to why its being overlooked.

This place never ceases to amaze.
okie fox Posted 19 January 2015 Posted 19 January 2015 Have you really just written David Nugent doesn't drop back into midfield to win the ball??? This place never ceases to amaze. How many times did he win the ball against Stoke? This season he has one goal from open play, one assist, he doesn't win tackles and his link play hasn't been that amazing. So why is he starting? Are you suggesting that, because the England captain can do something that he can't, he's shit? I am not talking about Rooney's goal scoring or forward play, just his tracking back being far more effective than Nugent's.
MC Prussian Posted 19 January 2015 Posted 19 January 2015 Yesterday we struggled because our centre midfield was decimated by injury and suspension. Injuries picked up during matches we can do very little about, suspensions we can. James was suspended for a foul comitted trying to prevent a Villa counter attack after Nugent lost the ball under no pressure. We conceded a goal to Stoke because Was couldn't get too close to Bojan after collecting a booking in the first half following another terrible touch by Nugent. I am not blaming any one player for our defeat BUT I do believe life was made considerably more difficult for the whole side because of two needless mistakes in two consecutive matches. If at all, the marking leading up to Stoke's goal was terrible. You don't stand away from you immediate counterpart and virtually let him walk past by you. As stupid as Wasilewski's yellow card was, nothing indicates he would've been booked a second time just before Bojan scored if he had positioned himself better.

You failed to answer the question, and then came out with some more waffle. More than likely realised how stupid your initial post was.
