He had nothing to do with the pen/non pen decision, try getting your facts right before posting

He still slid into it and could have ended up fouling too. Was still a stupid decision.

Name a defender and I'll pick out some mistakes they've made as well. Reinildo red against villa (way worse than O'Niens as we then played 70 minutes against a team in poor form we could've beat) Alderete every game does something daft and gives the ball.away cheaply, Reinildo pen against Brentford, Hume lunging yellow yesterday for no reason etc etc. Is O'nien a starter when we have everyone fully fit? No he isn't but has he has stepped up and filled in with decent performances. Credit where it's due

He also didn't give away a pen yesterday as it wasn't a pen. The Leeds one wasn't given, we won against the mags and the red against city is irrelevant we were 3-nil down

So less criticisms than onien despite playing most of the season. Congrats.

Are you really using a made up penalty as the starting point of your argument?

Talk about clutching at straws…

In what way is the Leeds Penalty decision made up? PGMOL even admit the error themselves

You said he gave away a penalty yesterday. He didn’t.

Once again? Is this ignoring the stupid slide tackle today for their penalty that was completely needless? And the penalty he should have given away against Leeds, the stupid own goal attempt, the red card and passing to Woldemackem at their place?

Quite a lot of mistakes for “only 3 PL starts”

What was stupid about it? He’d have ended up blocking the ball. You do realise the pen was given against Alderete’s challenge?

He made a goal saving interception early on in the game

No I didn't. I said he made a stupid sliding tackle in the course of the penalty event. It was stupid and could have given away a penalty, and completely needless as Alderete had already sorted it. Truth is that if their lad didn't dive, Alderete would have cleared the ball and Luke would then have cleaned their man out

No he didn't. Alderete kicked the ball off Onien. Was completely unnecessary and if their diver wasn't already down, Luke would only have succeeded in clearing their lad out.

Yes the interception early on was good, but the red card, penalty he should have given away at Leeds and unforgivable pass out against Newcastle and the stupid own goal attempt aren't good enough frankly. Lads not fit to wear the shirt in the PL.

3rd worst attack

This is the one I can't understand. I don't feel that we are negative at all - we actually are quite attacking and open in games. We also create a decent amount of chances. Obviously it's true, but on gut feeling I wouldn't suggest we are near worst in the league level.

The away ones have probably skewed it so badly, there's been some real bad ones away from home but overall at home we're good

Which means we look to improve the attacking areas in the summer from buys and players hopefully settling in more (Angulo comes to mind).

I’d gladly keep all of the defenders into next season.

Clean sheet. The ones not rating him will be baffled. :lol:

Don't really think it's a case of the defenders being better than the attacking ones. The way we set up means that our defensive stats will look better than the attacking ones. It has brought about the points required - it's a team effort. The work that the attacking players do should be given more credit. Brobbey has been outstanding, but hasn't scored a great deal of goals for example.

Fix our winger issue and we could be a very dangerous team, the wings are by far our weakest part of the team.
