Goianegra 4,702 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 He does all the hard work, its just his final ball lets him down every time, its frustrating ~THANK YOU Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisVanDarche 23 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Going forward he isnt too bad, it's just anything to do with defending that he is pish at. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muff 245 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Once again a goal comes down his side as a regult of him not closing it down, and getting skinned. An absolutely horrific defender! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiogh 178 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Whittaker has had enough time to learn how to defend, the amount of chances and now goals that are coming from his incompetence is unacceptable. I think even Broadfoot would be a better option when he comes back, but I'd rather see McMillan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gersfan 5 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 To be honest, ever since we first bought him i have been far from convinced not only defensively but going forward as well. When we don't have the ball he is a liability because his positioning is atrocious and he can't tackle, he has no pace and zero strength, when he has the ball he looks like he doesn't know what to do with it and finds it next to impossible to pass to another blue shirt. And to those who think he should move to right midfield...why??! Other than the odd flukey goal what has he ever created going forward? A useless player who should never be playing for a club the size of Rangers, he wasn't even all that amazing for Hibs! The thing i find almost laughable is the number of folk on here who said when we were selling Hutton that we should take the money and run as we had a ready-made replacement in Whittaker! Unbelievable. I'm pissed off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivybank 4,636 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 he will still be playing next week at falkirk and will probably cost us another goal well done walter! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amac9 2,060 Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 One of the worst defenders I have ever seen! Get him out of the side now! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mapleridgebear 0 Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Eventually Whittaker's inability to defend was gonna cost us a game somewhere along the line and that happened today. His defending against Paton was absolutely pathetic. He should be nowhere near the first 11 against Falkirk next week but we all now he will start. We have Little, Mcmillan or even Bougherra that can play there. none of those 3 would have been beaten so easily today. get him out the f'ckin team NOW!

WilliamFyfe 1,438 Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 I posted a thread while back about him hes a god awful defender, but going forward hes good. We must give someone else a shot at Right back before Whittaker costs us more goals from his sloppy defending Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShootSpeedKillLight 0 Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 He does all the hard work, its just his final ball lets him down every time, its frustrating Sort of agree with this. He's one of the most frustrating to watch because he's clearly capable, but seems to have no confidence whatsoever. He can take the ball past 3 players, then pass it straight back to them. Plus he needs to sort his fucking defending out. I've stuck up for him in the past but it's getting beyond a joke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancedeangers1 287 Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 If the ball doesn't get crossed into the box then the striker can't score, that's it. One fucking basic task - stop the wide player getting the ball in !! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabness 0 Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Didn't he play Right midfield with Hibs for that very reason, he just isn't a defender. I am very concerned with the fact that Walter continues to play out of from players every week. Also the fact that Walter can't pick these players up off the floor, and give them a good talkng to to boost their confidence. I hope Walter goes in January. I think i will apply for the job, i surely couldn't be any worse than Walter is at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaffbear 4,104 Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Whittaker has been awful...shockin defender but he's not our worst player.. Naismith offers nothing apart from effort....Lafferty,Novo and miller are the same....Weir can only hoof the ball 60 yards to noone...McCulloch....FUCKIN MCCULLOCH.AAAAAARRGHHHHHHHHH We are an awful football side that needs another revamping........how many more rebuilding process' can we have .

biotechnology 2 Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Last year from January on he was probably the best player in the team & was a major factor in us winning the league. He looked like he was going to progress into a top class player, however........................... This season has been an Anus Horribliss for him.

manofthefuture 1 Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 you know your right back is pretty pish when the thought of Broadfoot replacing him is not a bad idea. Wilson is also partly to blame because Lee Miller is a pathetic excuse for a striker. Put Bougherra there or give one of the kids a chance. Maybe the guy just needs a break, or an enormous boot up the arse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
