Did nothing when he had the ball, shouldn't be on the pitch if Bent is fit. We'll look very dangerous with Bent and Gyan up top

Ran his socks off the whole of the match. Chased down just about every ball, even if it was a lost cause. Got clattered a few times, but got straight back up!! Not a fantastic performance from him, but still, showing signs why SAF rates him so highly. Just hope the lad gets a goal soon, massive boost in his confidence
As above the comparision to Frazier is a good one, he will be better through the middle, hope he`s still here in two years time cos he`s gonna be some player
Spot on. Ran around like a blue arsed fly to very little effect
Probably right. But today he was unfocused. Personally I hope he prospers and I believe he has the skill.
Looked better in the right position.

He'll definitely come good if he hasn't already. We're crying out for someone prepared to take his man on and provide some entertainment value and there's people knocking him. :roll:
Bullshit. He was tremendous today. He closed their defenders down from the first until last minute and won the ball several times. When a forward is doing this the midfield must squeeze up in midfield to put pressure on the player receiving the hurried pass. This didn't happen enough. Welbeck had Stoke rattled in the second half and was responsible for a couple of sublime pieces of skill which resulted in a few bookings and the sending off. He still has a bit to learn like his decision making in the final third (last week being a prime example) but for me the positives outweigh any negatives.
see fraizer campbell....brought in as back up, put out on the wing, got on with it without any fuss, had solid if unspectacular performances then got his goal and suddenly looked like he was worthy of starting every game.
I think welbeck will be the same, just needs his goal and watch him go.
He's okay, but personally I'm not massively impressed by him so far. He's busy, and very quick and runs around a lot. But for someone who is supposed to be a striker, he rarely seems to create anything, he never scores and I can't remember too many goalscoring positions he has been in. I know he has spent a lot of his time on the wing, but you'd expect him to be getting in amongst it here and there.
Touch of the Chopras so far for me, albeit to a slightly higher standard - runs around lots, but not a great deal of end product.
Quite obviously, he has seen this post and it has inspired him. Therefore, I claim my credit for our recent good performances.
