Very average tonight apart from hitting the bar. Gave the ball away several times. He's decent but not better than Greer yet.

He needs time, like Ince did and JFC does. You aren't going to get instant results with young players. Yes, he did mistakes tonight, but in between time I thought he looked strong and put his head and foot in when he needed to. If he plays alongside Upson for a few games, I have faith that we'll see a great change. Trouble is, everyone wants us to develop the youngsters, then as soon as they come in the team and don't immediately perform like world beaters, people get on their backs. Not right.

Lewis Dunk- awful tonight and hasn't been good for a long long time, granted he doesn't play much but there's an obvious reason for this!

Rather have Greer any day of the week!

which is why poyet got upson in, dunk is just not up to it , he makes too many costly mistakes

Poor tonight, excellent in his last 2 outings.

Its clever to play him with Upson, Lewis is going to be one of the great centre backs, and Upson will bring him on quicker.

Ince, how many more games can we give him!

As for dunk, makes too many bad passes in bad areas for me. Good play generally dispersed with errors you wouldn't expect from a championship player.

The OP has gone very quiet.

No just not glued to NSC constantly!

The amount of times he gave the ball away was ridiculous, granted he put a few decent tackles in, but his positioning and concentration were appalling, he's had much better games in the past and that's why I picked him out for criticism as I know he can do much better.

I know there are a lot of Anti GG fans out there at the moment but you are deluded if you think Dunk is better

It didn't help that Ince picked up a knock. I've no idea who'll take his place if he's not ready for Saturday.
