Matt Connolly

[silvercue]

One trait I don't like about Neil. He won't say much about Barton, Mackie or Adel, but he's happy to #### Matt and Traore for anything he can.

That is a proper point. His public humiliation of Traore was cringeworthy.

Does anyone else think mackie should be on the bench? Just doesn't cut it for me.

Yeah, me.
Cannot fault his work-rate, but all the huffing and puffing in the world couldn't hide the the fact that against Sunderland, Jamie didn't look anything special.

But he did score the 2nd goal..................

That he did, still don't reckon he should be one of those always first on the team sheet.
There will be more huff, and more puff, than there will goals, and if Jamie proves me wrong in the next month, I'll eat this computer I'm working off.

dont think id let Matt do my ink work

There needs to be an understanding between the CB's, so they communicate and cover for each other, and that clearly isn't happening with these 2 together, something is missing and neither seems to be in charge. If either of them played alongside Anton then their performances would improve imo.

Yo could be right. Strange thing is that Connolly in a way has got what it takes to make it as a CB on the highest level.
My view only.

Traore should be able to handle it. But as I see it Connolly is very much a confidence player who needs support instead of public humiliation.

Explain mate because I seriously do not see what you do but happy to be persuaded

.............would you let stevie wonder perform a brain operation..........connolly is to center back what lennie henry is to being funny!!

[Sideshowrob]

Connoly looks like he has created another space in the 25 man squad!!

[casuallyqpr]

dont understand how connolly can get all this abuse ahead of gabbidon, who was woeful. Connolly hasnt been playing and then when he does he's got gabbidon to guide him back into the team....

he was poor last night but so was pretty much everyone, id like to see him get a run with Ferdinand as i think they could work great together.

If goals dont really matter, apart from the header of the line and the tap in he scored, what did HH do ?

We can allow HH to have a off day if he keeps banging in the goals !!

Nobody said that goals "don't really matter."
Heidar has netted 7 times for the Rs this season, Jamie has just scored one close range header that I could have scored with my eyes shut, and that was only the other night.
Heidar deserves automatic selection, Jamie don't.
Just my opinion.
