Juror8 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I thought he had a cracking game today. Back to playing like Cafu - marauding up and down the wing. Couple of cracking deliveries and that tackle when they were breaking was brilliant - most would have missed it or conceded a foul. He took ball clean as a whistle. He'll face much sterner tests. Didn't think they offered that much down their left-hand side. Was it Lowry and Wright who were playing that side for them? Anyway, think he can take heart from today - after not being totally convincing in first two games - and kick on. Two more things: 1. What a ****** James Henry is/was. 2. Who was fault for their goals? I was sat near Lep and couldn't really get perspective. Know Semedo gave it away for second, but lad seemed to be acres of space, was convinced he must have been offside, but there were no appeals so must have been safely on.

FreshOwl Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 he just snook in behind our back 4 for the 2nd, no idea how the flip he managed it. Completely agree about buxton, had a wonderful game. Overlapped whenever he could and didn't get caught out of position. Also thought Beevers was solid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Big Guns Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Mom for me tday outstanding Sorry jurors no scapegoat yet The brutal truth so far is semedo hasn't stepped up yet ,but I'm giving him time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lincowl Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 He was superb, for the first game this season looked fully match fit and back to his best. Possibly man of the match to anyone who paid attention to his superb defending and link up play. I feel JJ started well but faded after the rain came down.

Juror8 Posted August 25, 2012 Author Share Posted August 25, 2012 Mom for me tday outstanding Sorry jurors no scapegoat yet The brutal truth so far is semedo hasn't stepped up yet ,but I'm giving him time Semedo too sloppy in possession but plays in such a frenetic style, hard for him to run around like a madman, and then be clam and composed in possession. Still the heartbeat of our team, in terms of the amount of harrying he does, and sets the tone for the rest, but needs to iron out the mistakes.

Guest York-owl-chris Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Buxton was class and was better going forward than Antonio, especially in the first half Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulva Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Buxton has been our most consistent player for the last 3 seasons. Very rarely has a bad game, and very underrated. Contract up in the summer, we should be talking to the lad now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lukestheman82 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Buxton was class and was better going forward than Antonio, especially in the first half Sounded on WP that Antonio improved today, particularly 2nd half, would that be fair to say?.

SquirrelSlingshot Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 He's had an indifferent start to the season, but put in a good performance today. Hopefully he'll now find some form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest York-owl-chris Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Sounded on WP that Antonio improved today, particularly 2nd half, would that be fair to say?. Yeah especially in the second half. I seem to think he's better at just powering forward rather than trying to dribble round defenders.In league one he could do it, this season he gets tackled.

SiJ Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Good to hear. I thought he had a really solid game against Birmingham on Tuesday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattitheowl Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 My only concern about Lewis is if he comes up against pace (as he did against Brum). He has little to no cover and can get exposed. Hopefully he will get his reading of the game sorted quickly enough and will still be effective. Had a good one at the weekend. Just not bothered...
