Poor first half and was over ran a bit in there. After only 5 minutes, he showed his lack of mobility trying to go past a player in the centre circle. Credit to him though, like some have said he was good in the second half and made some great interceptions and won the ball back very well for us. After his injuries, it was good to see him get better as the game went on. I'm not his biggest fan, but with what we have, we need to have him and M'Vila fit and playing together as much as possible.
 
I saw it very differently. Excellent in the final 20 minutes. Dreadful in the first half.

He and Johnson were completely bypassed by the Aston Villa midfield. Cattermole in particular gave the ball away far too often and was easily beaten to the ball on two occasions I can think of.

He must have won the ball 10 times more times that he was beaten to it. He isn't superman.
 
Wow..With catts we'd have 45 points...talk about ambition lads and lasses....! The point is he shouldn't be at the club and we should have got rid to Stoke. ..he's not the only one but this hero worship is remarkable!!
Give up Ernie. A lot of us agree with you, but there are to many simple minds in this board.
 
I love catts for his heart and motivation but having m'villa as defensive midfielder we need a creative dribbler that can split a defense to complete our centre midfield.

I watched Cattermole really closely in the first half and I'm sorry, I can't think of 10 times that he won the ball in that first half. Not even close.

When we did win the ball we then surrendered possession far too often. It's one of our biggest issues and has been for some time. Far too often we win the ball back only to give it straight away and invite pressure back at us.

I'm a big fan of Cattermole. Don't expect him to be superman, but he was completely bypassed by a really average opposition midfield today in the first half, as was Johnson too.

Great last 20 minutes once we had the physicality of Toivonen and AJ went out to the wing.
 
We're a better side when he's in it. It would take one thick fucker to not be able to see that. Also he shouldn't have started because he started off poorly? Do you think Sam is some kind of special being who can see into the future?
He almost cost us the game with his poor marking on 1-1. How can you say we are better with him? Defoe saved his arse today
 
He was poor first half however much improved second half. Him and Mvilla are a good pairing however we need someone quick and strong to carry the ball

physicality of Toivonen?
 
I like his graft and bite in midfield and we miss it when he's not there, but I thought he was average for the most part today and i just don't get the wankathon for him. He's a limited footballer and if we want to improve on relegation battles every year we need better than the likes of Cattermole
He wasn't at the races in the first half, let alone average.
 
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. ..!!
