It Was All Edu's Fault...

[blueben_d 40]

What is all this "it must be Edu's fault" "get with the times it's whittakesr " pish?

If people are not allowed to say these players are shite it's time to close this forum down.

If anyone thinks these two are good players for us they need there bawz booted?

These players are not above criticism, but they bear the brunt and the blame for the whole team at times which is when it's over the top. The whole team can play shite but it's certain players who will get the brunt of the criticism for that game.

They do bring it on themselves by being consistently poor but other better players tend to get off lightly.

This isn't even a joke anymore. it's worrying, it suggests that some people think Edu's good.

Edu is good, in the last 2 weeks he's proved that against Dundee United where he gave a MOTM performance and against celtic where he played very well again.

[Rangers Rob 29]

McCullochs just as bad as Edu. You won't find me getting excited when any of these 2 get games for us.

So who, out of our current roster, would you replace them with at DM?

[gunslinger 270]

Discuss.......seems that's the outcome of most of our poor performance's.

missed him a lot.

[Gaffbear 4,106]

This thread should be closed as its just daft.

It's called witty banter.

What was rife on here until everyone started griping like wee lassies and falling out all over the place.

[OneDavidCooper 2,505]

Do people never tire of discussing such an ordinary and forgettable footballer?

[lee-irvine 53]

I think had edu been in the team last night we would have won, he chases every ball covers everyone who wants to go forward he's quick and often pops up with important goals, he brings the best out of our players and i am getting sick of people on here and anywhere else saying he's usless, steve davis plays 10 times better alongside edu than anyone else and that's says it all.

Edu was terrible last night. Did absolutely nothing.

I must miss the wittery genius in this post.

In fairness he was largely to blame today.

[King Jela 20,687]

Played very well again today.

Him and Davis complete each other.

In a totally non-bent way.

[Nicolas Cage 31]

Still not sure if the guy's a natural defensive midfielder. He sometimes seems very reluctant to close people down which is annoying. He's playing well at the moment though.

...for a cracking goal.

[Nicika Jelavic 7]

Slightly dodgey in possession but another good showing, well in mo.

[theweebluenose 4,335]

Good performance today, slowly getting his form and confidence back. Still a few niggles in his overall play to iron out but has come on leaps and bounds in the last few games.

[papaguy51 912]

I want to see this Edu for the rest of the season.

He only scores a) screamers or b) very important goals.

You serious? Some of his runs with the ball and passing were brilliant - what a player when he's on form.

[Rab_Rangers 38]

He was brilliant again today, hope he can keep it up. Him and davis compliment eachother really well when they are both on form.

[cambyloyal 20]

It was his fault for scoring a belter the day

Pish as usual

EDU EDU

[OlegKuznetsov 10,816]

...for a cracking goal.

Yep. And a generally solid performance allied to a greatly improved range of passing.

He's really beginning to look the part and a totally different player.

On the contrary, I think he's very much a natural defensive midfielder, he just needs to show the attitude for it more often. His anticipation is occasionally amazing. He reads opponents' passes very well and when he's on form he breaks up play brilliantly.

So is it the Jig factor that dilutes his natural game ?

[JamieD 19,321]

I just think he lacks confidence. When he actually decides to get into a game and not basically ghost his way through it I think he does what he's supposed to do very well. His worst games for us seem to suggest he can't tackle, can't pass, can't stay on his feet and can't read the game very well, and he has certainly looked like that many times but when he does play well you can see he has an aptitude for all of those things, so it's not raw ability he's lacking, it's something else.

I suspect the boo boys don't help, although he's a grown man and needs to develop a thicker skin if he can't handle that.
