Has Ozturk suddenly became decent overnight

[Deleted member 6830]

Shows you how bad Flanagan and Allen are that we are calling for his return but there we are

He has been solid in all Checkatrade games I saw him in.
He was settling in v Charlton and Sheff Wed and now everyone discounts him. He will be ok if given spot v Donny.

 

[fredthefan]

His more recent games, he's been ok.

Certainly better than Barry and Paul Chuckle were at the weekend.

And one of them is dead

 

[The Rat]

Are things really that bad we’re looking forward for Ozturk been back in the team.

Have people forgotten his errors at the start of the season. Which cost us games/points.

He never fuckin played man

What games did he cost us points?

 

[Churchlanelad]

Whees this Allen?

Bud Flanagan and Chesney Allen, members of the Crazy Gang, the original gang not Wimbledon. Bud sang the theme to Dads Army.

 

[jackynutmeg]

Can’t believe we signed a centre half who openly admits he doesn’t like heading the ball.

and a one that more or less admitted his playing days were over when we signed him

 

[Seaham Towny]

He looks like he’s trimmed down a bit and was more mobile in the checkatrade games. I’d use him in a 3 at the back personally. I knew our centre half’s weren’t great but fuck me it’s got to 41 games in and it’s suddenly hit how f***ing shite they are.

Ozturk - Dunne - Baldwin

O'Nien - Leadbitter - Cattermole - Oviedo

McGeady

Wyke - Grigg

Before the Coventry game we had conceded 36 goals all season, less than one a game.

I think only Barnsley, Luton and maybe Charlton had conceded less.

If our defence is shit does that not mean every defence in the league is shit by comparison or is everyone being a tad melodramatic after a poor performance?

Aye along those lines but Matthews for onien if he were fit. Looks like McGeady is out too so it’ll be honeyman. Would of preferred mcgeouch too but he’s crocked. As well.

Can't believe people are actually wanting ozturk in the side yes Bawldin/Flanagan haven't been great past couple of games but ozturk isn't the answer imo

It really is

We’ve been solid all year

Fuck knows what people are talking about

We’re 3rd as we scored enough, too many 1-1s

Not our defense

 

[Nefarious Ned]

In answer to the OP; no, he's still shit. The current two aren't good, but in comparison to Ozturk and Loovens they look like world class.

 

[Doberman]

To be fair (unlike this place, I know) he wasn’t actually that bad in his last few appearances for us.

He looked really shakey at the start of the season but on the flip side, Baldwin looked like Baresi early on.

Baldwin looked like Baresi when he had protection in front of him.

We went brave & played two strikers like the SMB wanted and look where it's got us.

4-2-3-1 is the way forward. The number 10 playing off Wyke or Grigg. 2 sitting midfielders can hold up attacks from the opposition so Baldwin and Flanagan aren't required to turn into Usain Bolt when the oppo run at them.

[Deleted member 27423]

It’s laughable really, he played against Man City’s second string youth team and suddenly people want him in the team. Aye Baldwin and Flanagan are largely shite, but they’re like Beckenbauer and Canavaro compared to this clown.

He was very good in that game..sadly not many saw it

 

[Safc88]

Loovens is the worst like

 

[Doberman]

^^^^In a nutshell^^^^

all this talk of changing this and that. We just need to set up so we aren't over run in midfield. Everything was fairly rosy until we weakened ourselves in midfield. That isn't Baldwin/Flanagan's fault which is why I was pissed off with the reaction towards them both on Saturday.

4-2-3-1 please Mr Ross.

He played ok against some 14 year olds from Man City so is now better than Ramos.

Please keep up at the back.

 

[PS]

Daft OP.

Ozturk looked poor in his first game, but whenever I've seen him since (eg at Wimbledon and in the Checkatrade) he's looked solid.

It's actually that Baldwin and Flanagan have looked poor and/or tired recently and may need resting.

 

[Mboma]

Tbh, I'd be tempted to throw him in, after what we all witnessed at the weekend I doubt he can be any worse!

We can't play Baldwin and Flanagan as a two together anymore, they'll be shit scared of playing in front of our lot.

 

[SAFC Wilks]

Loovens is the worst like

Easily.
