Glaser Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 He takes a lot of stick on here (some warranted), but for me today he was a stand out performer. Constantly hustling and breaking up things in midfield and kept the ball flowing. He was keeping it simple, stretching the play by bringing in both wingers and was also switching some nice cross field balls. Much more industrious and effective than Miller for me today. Also nearly won it for us in the end. Praise where it is due J'OC...... now keep it up...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beholder Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 (edited) He's poo . One half decent game should not warrant him keeping a place. We need to move on from players like purse joc and sedgewick. Edited January 15, 2011 by Beholder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glaser Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 so we are ok to give him hammer when he plays badly..... yet when he does have a good game, he does not deserve praise ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyowl Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 He got a few tackles in in the first half but his passing was awful! "nd he was much better, passing was better, pressed more and got stuck in! Not MOM for me though that goes to THE RADIATOR! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wednesday-Wonderland Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Don't think he should really be praised for playing 'less poo poo than usual'. He had a good 5 minute spell and then the shot at the end, not much else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glaser Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 he aint good enough and never will be....move him out with purse in the summer. That's completely not what this is about. Some have seriously mis read it. Look, I agree he aint good enough to be a regular in this team and generally offers very little. But, today, he put in a very commendable performance, which surely he should be praised for (regardless of pre conceptions or past performances) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sheff Owl Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Did very well today BUT i still think we need a strong aggressive 'ball winner'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miffed Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Sometimes JOC's performances get overlooked simply because he isnt a flair player or a creative midfielder (or even one of the blue eyed boys) But what you do get from him is determination and the will to get stuck into touch challenges. He is prepared to do the nitty gritty and break up the play. That is his job, to win the ball and then give it to the more creative players. You need that sort of player in your midfield.

abrodie2002 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 J'OC today for me was outstanding... threw his foot into every challenge, charged down every ball, went in tough on players, challenged (and won most of) every header, heavily involved in the goals, good positioning off the ball today..... for me MOM with THE RADIATOR! More of that please J'OC!! That is all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinner Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I'd argue that he only had a good game in relation to his own very poor standards. Nowhere near good enough for imo if we are to make any kind of progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Last_Great_Hope Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 He's poo . One half decent game should not warrant him keeping a place. We need to move on from players like purse joc and sedgewick. Played very well against Bristol City as well. Although, I do agree we need to be moving on as well.

Lincowl Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Can't believe anyone wants to take digs at JOC today. One of our few players who did the business in both halves and second only to THE RADIATOR overall IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of our few players who did the business in both halves and second only to THE RADIATOR overall IMO. Agree with this. JOC was the player who dragged the rest of the team out of the mire today. Without him we'd have been totally lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark77 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 This is the type of thread that shows the difference between people that understand the game and those that dont. He was head and shoulders above any other Owls player in the first half, second half he played just as well but the teams performance was much much better.

Guest Sniper1 Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I thought JOC was our outstanding player first half. Would much rather have Micheal Essien playing in midfield but today JOC was very, very good. Charlton's midfield aren't bad either. Well done JOC. Still think he will be replaced by a midfielder with more of a presence. Semedo could do a job for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
