any one could win a tackle, and you're using the 'runs a lot' justification, and when exactly has he scored an 'important goal' this season - as somebody else said; we "hold on to good servants at our peril." He is simply not good enough and must go asap; the players we have signed should be playing ahead of Dirk, and the reasons you gave for him being good enough, to me, are not reason enough for the boss selecting him every week. Y'day was an amazing result away to Chelsea, but I just feel that Dirk is more of a hinderance than a help when on the pitch - sometimes think he would make more of an impact if he ran around in the car park for 90mins. Did he do enough to earn a place in the starting 11 next wknd, probably not: will Kenny select him against City, probably
Honestly lad that is the biggest pile of bollocks I've ever read.
Go back to the first 45 minutes yesterday and the main reason we had the beating of Chelsea was the work rate of our front 4 they hurried and hassled Chelsea in Posession and chased every lost cause.
It was so effective Andre Villas Boas had to make changes at half time, as we started to boss Chelsea all over the pitch.
Kuyt, Bellamy, Maxi and Suarez were key to that as they were our first line of defense and never gave Chelsea a minute on the ball and put pressure on them and disrupted their passing game as they never had a moment to pick out a pass, which resulted in them more often than not being sloppy in posession.
The only reason Chelsea grew into the game was the change of formation with Mata going into a pretty much free role ancd Sturridge coming on, but Kenny eventually brought Henderson on, so Lucas could drop a little deeper to pick up Mata and then we started to get control of the game again.
