jrh Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 People saying we need to get rid of jj are ridiculous! He is erratic and unpredictable (if he wasn't he'd have been in the prem for the last teen years) but we all know that and the fact is he is still a massive asset to any club in this league! He is also a far better player than maghoma, more pace, more of a goal threat, better touch and better dribbling. Next on to mattock, he is nowhere near good enough and is so easily beaten as he has no pace, also his distribution of passes is poor, just watch how many balls he gives away, helan would be a far better option would rarely get taken on! Personally think he is better at lb than at lm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWFC_Liam Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 It's just fashionable to slate Mattock, he's actually fine. Better than Reda defensively. Also JJ is no where near as good as Maghoma, you must be clueless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRADDAZ Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Mattock is FAR superior to Helan. He's had a pretty solid game as per usual at left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JonTheOwl66 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Mattock was very good today. Didn't work hard enough going forward, but defensively... Sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMX Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Nowt wrong with Mattock today. Loves a strong tackle too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee A Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Anybody who wants to keep players like JJ do not want sheffield Wednesday to do well, simple as that. It's been 7 years of absolute garbage with a handful of quality moments, finally time to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickswfc Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Since Mattock got sent off and had a poor performance v Huddersfield last year (playing out of position I may add) there seems to be this stigma attached. IMO he is a steady consistent player at championship level and a good player to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POWP Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Did you see mattock run in to give a sliding tackle just outside their box... he's a great player for us at this level, his fitness just doesn't show it all right now, but give him a longer run in the team and he'll be showing stronger than he does now. If all he is, is our backup to Reda (which I think is the wrong way around), then to be honest what more could we ask for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee A Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Agree mate, why Mattock gets so much stick beggars belief, like you say it is certain fans just jumping on the band wagon. Wednesday fans like pace, that's all. If a player can control the ball, tackle and play accurate passes, he'll never be popular at Wednesday.

Ironman Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 It's just fashionable to slate Mattock, he's actually fine. Better than Reda defensively. Also JJ is no where near as good as Maghoma, you must be clueless. Agree completely. Although Reda had improved significantly before his injury, mattock is better defensively. Saying that we need Reda's presence in there too. Catch 22 reAlly.. Need to try Reda at CB again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam_Baggies Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Mattock had a very good game today - despite not having to do much defensively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingOwl Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Mattock had a good game. Sometimes I wish he'd push forward a bit more though, although I suppose that will come with game time and confidence and gelling with Maghoma more down the left.

Freshfish Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 (edited) .. a squad, with reasonable strength in depth, defensively and folk still fookin' moan...unreal....JJ is excellent at what he does. It might be limited sometimes but given we need capable players to fit in with the cup and league I can't understand why anyone would want him shipped out.... ...let's wait until the end of the season and then assess and develop...but now...pointless.

Standidno Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Mattocks better than reda and better than Helan. End of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GrahamHydeFanClub Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Mattock is sound. As long as he keeps helan and reda out I'm happy. JJ is an embarrassment and needs getting shut of.

southportdc Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Mattock was fine- but he needs Maghoma to run the channel and give him the pass. Maghome kept cutting in but Mattock doesn't have the pace to go outside his man so just ended up narrowing the attack constantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikecass919 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 I agree with this JJ needs run of games, Reda in a settled defence is an animal, at his best playing with gardener and someone else decent bucko on the other side, its a mean defence that.
