This is absolutely mental like and automatically discredits your entire argument surrounding Cattermole
No...I base my opinion on the games I see..follow the thread and I acknowledge I can't comment on today...I comment on what I perceive as rhe mean average of his performance today..crap first half brill second half.
For the record I have seen a good third of catt's games live and he has been a 6 or 7 around 1 in 10...
 
I did mate aye, not a fan?
I think he's quality. Looks tired recently mind, probably from carrying the midfield these last few weeks
He's decent mate, but in forty years of watching the lads I'd say there have been a handful of class players I have seen. At times he is decent, more than adequate and looks capable. He can be anonymous at times and go missing and look like he can't be arsed.

I will wait and see what happens come the end of the season, or more importantly wait to see where he ends up.;)
 
Was cack in the first half mind, improved massively in the 2nd half. I like Catts and I like M'villa but they were up against on of the worst midfields I've ever seen today
 
The point is rocky me old mucker..improving from rubbish suggests he shouldn't have been playing in the first place...what is the obsession with the bloke...? Gets stuck is my bet!!
I think you are conflating a number of arguments...extrapolating an average points return from one player's number of starts over a season is completely different to whether over that season had he been playing whether we would be a ' better ' side.
I agree when he first arrived I was 'quite' excited...but over how many years I know not I have seen nothing that would suggest we should be making him the backbone of our side.
The argument about players around him has been oft made but says more about him than those around him. Waste of space...in a key role he is found wanting...Ki in front of the midfield was wonderful to see...catts protects naff all hence our woeful GA ştat.
Why are you arguing with yourself, did you forget which login to use?
For effect rocky.
I didn't see the game so can't comment definitively but by all accounts he was rubbish for the first half....that is not starting off poorly..that is being poor for 50% of the game...
I happened to think we will win more games when we get proper footballers like mvilla and ki 'who bottled it' according to the experts on here in the centre of the park...
But the ssol loves a tryer so you guys keep.on voting for Collins. ..!!
Ah, well that explains a lot, it must be said.
 
Just done a quick calc on Cattermoles points to games ratio at SAFC using Statcat.

He has played 134 league games for us and in those games we have picked up 158 points. 1.18 points per game.

That would average out at about 45 points per season if he played every game. Mid table security. The valid criticism of him would be that he doesn't play enough games due to injury and suspension but all this 'liability', 'can't pass', 'just a grafter', 'so called hard man' nonsense is exactly that; nonsense
When ever I see larrson and Cattermole on the team sheet I know we have a good chance of picking up points. Those 2 have kept us up for years. Honest, hardworking players with the right attitude. I'm not saying they are necessarily world beaters but they set the tone of the game. Others follow their lead.

Not the best technically but makes up for that with heart and passion.
His passing is vastly underrated on here. He is a technical player.

Some of his diagonal balls to switch play are glorious to watch. People see what they want to at times.

Only thing Cattermole is weak at in his game is his temperament... But he knows that and has even sorted that out for the most part.

Love Lee me

He was rubbish first half mind

Class second
He seemed to be backing off. Maybe the game plan was keep 11 men on the pitch to get ahead then let villa risk the cards rather than us

Great last 20.

And his scrap with the Villa lad was a masterstroke - sent out a message to the rest of the league "don't mess with us" ;)
 
Played well did Cattermole :)
Just had a quick look at the higlights...he did well I suppose to get back following borini's mess up but then spoiled it by ball watching and losing his man...good finish but cattermole should have been a lot tighter...he's just not good enough.

Fuck off man, he tracked all the way back. The cross was overhit! The player did exceptionally well to hook it back, wasnt Cattermoles fault at all.

:lol: What a load of f***ing shit. Sometimes you have to acknowledge a bit of quality. Great run and cross then a great finish.

I agree..he tracked back well..he's not ay to blame but what a shame hədə idea to take those two steps forward when the cross was put in (he does this all the time...follows the ball like a little puppy) rather than focusing on the man he should have been marking.
