Fordy62 Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 Tonight aside, the bloke can be a really good footballer. But my god I find his diving embarrassing. He needs to stop it sharpish. Diving is cheating. And I don’t like seeing City players cheat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing he tried came off, and then six minutes in to injury time, plays the free kick short. Bham knew how to win a soft foul off the ref.

We were just discussing that one cross which went out for a throw in . Really not one of his best efforts recently agree that Birmingham drew all the easy fouls . So so so frustrating to watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petehinton Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 The more I see him the less I rate him tbh. Great delivery but don’t see a strength in anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firstdivision Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 Bang average footballer who has the occasional magic moment, I’m afraid. His general game is so erratic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winsaw Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 It's games like tonight that stop him being a starter, as you never know what u will get , think he messed up every single cross tonight, when he's not on looks like he's a Sunday league player, Hopefully next chance he gets will be on it and give a match winning display sadly they are just to far apart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dullmoan Tone Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 I just wish he would try and beat his man rather than playing it back to the defender - he was doing this last season as well. He needs more confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardy Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 He bottled that final free kick by passing it back to Dasilva. I don’t like to see that & would question whether he has the character when the pressure is on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was one dive by the Lansdown, when he was fouled first, stayed on his feet and expected a free-kick, didn’t get it, so dived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wendyredredrobin Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 Pack, Brownhill, Eliasson COD and Palmer all played poorly tonight. I thought Diedhiou tried a bit harder, but his ability is very limited. Not sure why Brownhill was asked to play so deep though, maybe it was to accomodate Palmer. Patto and Taylor brightened things up a bit when they came on. Maybe we can put this down to a bad day at the office, but 3 defeats in 3 games does leave me feeling like the wheels have fallen off again. If we don't perform at Preston (and we don't seem to do well against them), I wonder whether we will now go on a bad run at the wrong time again like last year. I still hope that this is just a blip and that we can turn it around though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFCGav Posted February 26, 2019 Report Share Posted February 26, 2019 Harsh to say he can only cross. He’s one of the best in our squad at beating his man. Not his day but he has more to give. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last game he scored a world class goal, LJ publicly names and shames him because he missed a tackle - like no other player on the pitch was able defend the 2nd goal - no wonder he’s not signed, poor pay and a coach that can’t man manage.

Not a clue - but how many teams in the championship would pay a player of his quality more than we can? Add to that the teams who’s coaches would never dream of blaming their players publicly for on field problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
