He seems to like Mackie, what do all the haters think of that one?

[qpr4life]

always been a fan of Mackie...

1. Im a sucker for a work horse
2. Im a sucker for passion
3. Im a sucker for people who also love the Hoops

Mackie ticks those boxes for me, yeah he isnt the most skilful of players (SOMETIMES, he has proven to be skilful at both league and Premier football) The fact is, he is a good player. When given a run of games he does well, he is a better option to SWP but thats just IMO!!!

WHAT HAVE YOU STARTED NOW ....................

PS I'm pro Mackie

The thing with Mackie is that he can get those goals when needed, I think he would be better used as a sub rather than starting.

Impact sub but a bloody good one at that !! Wouldn't have him anywhere near the starting 11 though no matter how much I like him. Definatly has a role to play amongst the current crop of " superstars " though

I think he is effective (to start a game or two) against teams closer to the bottom

I like Mackie but is he good enough for the Premier League?

Yeah I would go along with that.

In the interview Rodney was referring to the Mackie of last season. Sounds like he hasn't seen much of him this season where IMO he's been found out at this level.

Nail on head . I love mackies attitude and what he's done in the past but I'm really sorry to say he's not the standard required to be starting in the premier league . No probs with him being a sub whatsoever

Agree.

He is never going to be the most cultured player and for me when he starts he gets lost in games as oppos players generally in the prem have him more than contained. However, as an impact sub he is far more effective with bundles of pace, enercy and endeavour against tiring defenders that he won't give a minutes peace. They sometimes struggle against that and make mistakes which he can capitalise on.

Not much difference in his game from last year is there Stanley?.....I remember posters saying the same criticisms last year as this year, not looking up , running into deadends etc.......I actually think he's got more to his game this year, keeping the ball and cutting back inside instead of going for the byline
