Danny Holla

[Rookie]

Why do you?

Holla - the man himself says he had no preseason and the Autumn run of Tues/Sat caught up with him effecting his form.
Crofts - Just back from a seriously long injury played less games for Sami than Oscar, in a disrupted new squad.
Ince - Is Ince, I haven't noticed any drop or improvement in his play.
JFC - So 20 years old England international, permanent fixture in our midfield, doing solid job, is not playing to his potential.
If only his potential was a scapegoat, then he'd be beyond his potential.
Toko - Nobody knows what's going on there.
T'Shearer and Gardener - why must they be better than they have shown?, that doesn't make any sense at all.
Unless you believe they are either being told not to play too well.
Or they have decided not to play 100% for the Albion.

Really? Do you honestly think those players are playing to the best if their potential?
I'm a big fan of JFC and the abuse he gets on here is completely unwarranted, but don't feel he is playing anywhere near the standard he can. Whether that is confidence of the way he is being asked to play is a different question.
As far as Gardner and tex are concerned, both are rated as their premier league clubs but one is not making the squad of a team 3rd bottom of the championship while the other is not exactly setting the world alight.
I appreciate you want to be seen as the leader of the Hyypia in camp, but surely you have to admit he is not getting the best out of the players at his disposal.

Holla was ordinary last night. Toko was a disaster, couldn't do the basics like keep the ball. Paddy worked hard and showed some good skill, he had to play up top some of the game after we lost the striker to injury. Solly not involved, despite being advertised as being in the squad, which is slightly worrying.

Thanks for that update ...interesting as you say about Solly not being involved despite being told he would be in the squad

Arsegas has just said that he had a slight reaction to Saturday, so not involved as a precaution, may still be on the bench at Derby.

JFC is a pathetic **** and very shit !!!!!

Do you sit just in front of 1901 in the cheap seats?

Thanks for that ....reaction ..albeit slight after just 15 mins play must be of concern to the player

 

[Charlies Shinpad]

He didn't look unplayable, and it hasn't been coached out of him, whatever that means.

T'Shearer is a dribbler (and not just because of his age) he can run with the ball, that's about it.
He can't pick a pass.
He can't defend.
He can't tackle.


Best you ring Brendan Rodgers and tell him he wasted there money on him then

 

[dibsy]

Hola did nothing to suggest he deserves a recall to he first team tonight. Same for McCourt. Thought Toko looks up for it though.

Agreed, thought Toko was up for it, tackled and won the
ball a number of times. Walton did well but I didn't even realise Holla was playing which speaks for itself. Arsenal were v good but our defence was same as first team, opposition just go through us like a knife through butter. Caspaer was in the stand watching

Really ? I thought it was just a BORING DULLARD making up a oh so HYSTERICALLY funny name and continually repeating the SAME boring JOKE that wasn't FUNNY in the first place

Clearly something's not right somewhere.
I just dont see how you can draw these conclusions about a group of twenty year olds.

NSC dined out on this with Spanish Dave.
There's his body of work, there's what we've all seen him do, why didn't he kick the ball today?
That is this debate.

These players are a group of comparatively free youngsters that the parent club want to know if they are good enough.
You can be as respected as you like, but at the end of the day they've had minimal investment and the teams (Brighton included) what to know if they will 'make it'.

Quite how this becomes all Sami's fault, when there is so much actual stuff to blame him for, is the bit I don't understand.

He can't pick a pass.
He can't defend.
He can't tackle.
When he can, he'll be fantastic but until he's developed some more he is what he is, an exciting player with the ball at his feet.

All the other team, who get paid too, has to do is get to him early.
Game over T'Shearer, game over Albion midfield.

Had he been playing for someone else.
Aspinall's pregame report to Sami would read:-
'We have to stop T'shearer before he starts, as he gets the ball'.

Sums it up pretty much perfectly for me, you can throw in too light for this league as well.

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

Holla was ordinary last night, Toko looked vulnerable to getting sent off at any minute, I thought he looked like a lad trying way too hard and every challenge you were thinking this is it. Overall very little to take comfort from, Walton looked good, as ever, how he stopped their No 9 (Akpom?) from getting more I don't know.

No I don't , had a bad day and acted like a nob

 

[one of the bosun boys]

If I was holla, colunga, and the mystery that is toko I would be asking to leave in the transfer window.as for letting fenelon go out on loan is strange because we could well need him.ask arsenal for Joel Campbell?

 

[BensGrandad]

Why do we need Fenelon? When he was here he showed he wasnt good enough yet except pre season against Lewes.

Aren't you throwing stones in glass houses complaining about this UNREST?

He runs with the ball and just wants to beat everybody and not pass the ball to his team mates which usually ends with him losing it, send him back and save the money
