paul92vr6 145 Posted October 29, 2019 Bannan might be class but not in the same class as Sheridan. That cup win at Blackburn is still the finest 20 minute spell of football we have ever produced 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldowl67 587 Posted October 29, 2019 Similar players in many ways both in their style of play and in the way they affect the way we play. We seemed to play better when Sheridan was on form and it’s no different now with Bannan. The big difference of course is that Sheridan did it at the highest level.

You want to call someone a mug, go and do it up to them face to face, that way you can also face the inevitable consequence of your action. My guess is you wouldn't have the bottle.

That it was mate, with about 40,000 in the stadium in midweek in the Zenith Data Systems Cup. It got back page headlines in a cup that barely got a mention most of the time. Least that's how I remember it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why would you even think he was directing his comment at you though? He didn't even quote you, and in any case you never even mentioned anything about replacing Bannan so I don't see the connection between what you and he posted. Your reaction seems bizarrely OTT.

quinnssweetshop 2,448 Posted October 29, 2019 Bannan's a damn good player on his day, but we need 2 or 3 good players on their day for when one of the good players just isn't good enough on their day. Now, does that entitle me to drink from a mug or do I sip my tea in polite fashion middle finger raised ? We need strength in depth so we ensure consistency, which is often our main failure.

We seemed to play better when Sheridan was on form and it’s no different now with Bannan. The big difference of course is that Sheridan did it at the highest level. Cant accept that these 2 are similar in the way they affect the way we play. Sheridan could dictate the tempo and direction of an entire game at the highest level. Bannan is just our most creative central midfield player. Sheridan could boss a game against the very best in the Premier League at that time. Bannan is a decent championship player. Sheridan excelled at switching play and clever through balls. The majority of Sheridans work were high risk forward passes Bannan’s strength is recycling play and long diagonal balls. The majority of Bannan’s work is sideways and backwards. Comparing Bannan to Sheridan is like comparing Reach to Waddle. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
