CMS You Are The Weakest Link

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Re your points:

1/ You were obviously not around in 1979-1983 or when we went to Wembley in the early 90s for the playoff final. Yep, first Wembley game my best Albion experience (even though parts are very dull when watched back)

2/ Delighted he is a very nice man. Doesn't help on the pitch though! I believe it does, he is always last out on the training pitch trying to develop and helps build our great team spirt.

3/ Agreed. Yet the season is almost finished & so is CMS with us (hopefully). I would be very surprised but Gus is and will always replace if better are available and price/attitude is right. Gus and CMS always seem very friendly.

4/ Agreed & always do. A managerial great

The player is not up to Championship football either with us or Posh. League 1 beckons or a struggling Championship team at best.......unless Gus changes our tactics up front, which he won't - cos he is a stubborn mule!

Give the player and manger time to get the best, he has not even had a full season with us yet, Tony wants to build not buy success.

I'm in no position to say the in's and out's of the wages, however I feel it's right to correct someone if they are using incorrect/inflated wages as a justification for criticism.

Watched CMS for some 30+ games this season. Sorry, it's not going to happen.

Poyet persisted with the useless Holroyd for far too long as well.
Not saying that CMS is in the same class, but, with a stubborn manager not playing to the player's best abilities & let's face it (Gus weakest area is in buying forwards/loan players up front), I think it would be best if Craig moved on, unless Poyet decides to play 4-4-2 (can't see it though).

This. He had an absolute mare. Doesn't tackle, couldn't complete a pass, has no pace. How he remained on the pitch is boggling.

Correct - Amazing that considering the clamour on here to get him back in the side at the expense of Razak - just shows that many posters on here are utterly clueless!

Don't say it too loudly though. A few people think he was really useful last night and will call you a dickhead for posting this about Dicker

Brighton most of the season=negative football with very few attacks
Peterborough=fast attacking football with plenty of attacks

Plenty of top strikers in his league have barely scored 9 goals,I was hoping he would score 15 but I'm not surprised its so low,vokes struggles and Barnes mostly score penalties,trust me his stats are not bad considering how negative we're going forward most of the time.I really feel sorry for cms as he's been isolated with no service for so many games the season,we often play 1 striker aswell which doesn't help.

A lot of things need to be taken into account and if anyone should be blamed its gus and his 7 man defence

Dicker did not play badly at all last night - he was far better than Navarro who played some poor passes and is useless when the ball is in the air (such as the touch to let one of their players through on goal). Dicker plays incisive passes which don't always come off but are far more penetrating than those played by anyone else. The difference he has made to our team, despite the results, is massive. I think Gus knows better than most and he clearly agrees with me.

Wow- I thought Navaro along with Bomber was our best player

Don't want to sound too over the top , but, are you out of your mind? Dicker was woeful last night, he only passed the ball sideways and to the Reading players, didn't tackle and his legs were gone after about 70 minutes, Lord only knows why he thought he was better placed to take the free kick at the death. And to say he was far better than Navarro is a ludicrous claim, Navs was tremendous last night and the one time he did cock up he busted his balls getting back and retrieved the ball!

And you would be correct.

Are you getting the two of them mixed up. I counted 5 times when Roberts breezed past Navarro in dangerous positions but luckily the fabulous El-Abd was there to cover. Just watch when the ball is in the air - Navarro cannot head the ball and appears to run away from it. As well as this he misplaced at least 3 passes that led to Reading shots on goal and only passed the ball sideways. Now, Dicker was not great last night, but he adds creativity, is technically a very good player and won the ball back on plenty of occasions last night. There were far worse players.

I think you might be confused yourself there buddy. Navs is the player who most people had as M.O.M.

Maybe I'm wrong but it was just my opinion. May well be the fact I was miserably ill last night.

 

[Marc1901]

Is this is a joke? He was absolutely f***ing awful. Terrible. Every time the ball came to him it fumbled off his shin. It was woeful. He let the team down tonight.

Why the f*** did it take 80 minutes to get him off. I was so frustrated

I agree, that is how i saw the performance, certainly not as bad as some have made out.

It's funny how people see the game in different ways.

And no it was not a joke, clearly.

No worries, all entitled to an opinion buddy
