He is better than Burge...so should have a run in the first team.

Have to say there were many top performances out there yesterday and we won at a canter.Exceptional no, decent yes. He was largely untested yet dealt with everything he needed to deal with. Our scale of rating a player on here is hilarious.

Don't think we need to go wildly over the top, but there were certainly some deserved 8's and maybe one or two 9's to be had.
Well I thought Ricketts and Martin were outstanding myself. Reda a little error riddled and Stokes just steady.The attacking players excelled, defensively we done what was needed.

How much of "defence done what needed to be done" was actually the defence and Vincelot in particular doing their job excellently snuffing out shrewsbury's attacks before they started because of having a robust shape?
Can defenders only have good marks when they haven't done their job As a unit and have to make last ditch tackles, goal line clearances, etc?

Don't think OP meant anything bad by it
What are you basing this on?
Martin has been brilliant since he's come back into the side and when Willis is fit it should be Johnson if anyone who is dropped.
Hope this doesn't turn out to an escuse to start another campaign to bring back Eric Black!
Exactly what I said yesterday stu. Forget juggle and gender they just dint see game like.normal.people because they hate certain players
But too many people not understanding juet how well the defensive unit and whole team are doing defensively. We completely snuffed Shrewsbury out as an attacking threat by winning all headers and most 5050s. Closing down crosses early etc
Mowbray the Messiah himself says he's happy how we defend. We don't get overrun much. It's just mistakes that cost us goals. Well yesterday there wasn't 1 mistake. Well done to the defend.excellent display
How do we hate certain players? Neither of us said Johnson played badly we just scoffed at the 9/10 ratings he got which was absurd. He was a 6 or 7/10 which is still in my eyes a decent score. Par if you like.
And yes Stu I agree somewhat, but we hardly came under much threat did we? We were fairly dominant throughout and we didn't have to defend due to having the ball 60% of the time.
We didn't have the ball 60% of the time, in fact Shrewsbury shaded possession and yet still didn't trouble us and that is down to a solid defensive structure.

I find that hard to believe. Certainly felt as if we had full control of the game and possession.
Stu, I value your football opinion as you used to talk sense on GMK, one of the only users i actually listened too, do you really believe Reda Johnson was a fucking 9/10?
shrewsbury possession was in their own half a la Pressley era
Have to say, first 15 mins or so they had a right go at us and really threw a lot of bodies forwards.shrewsbury possession was in their own half a la Pressley era
