BLUEDIGNITY 33,682 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Don't know where this "half-hearted non-trier" label comes from. He always tracked back and never hid. His influence may have faded from some tough games, but that's because his team-mates faded out too. Seems like you can make up anything about a player who's been out for a while and it sticks.

Good reply. For once I will let the other pro-Buffel folk defend the guy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisVanDarche 23 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Buffel's a touch of class, and he can add something to the team. He should be given a chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen him in a few reserve games this season and he isn't the player he used to be. Normally gets subbed early.

Jiggaman88 10 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Does nobody else get sick of these Buffel threads, he has not played in a long time so with all these games now big games it would be tough for a player to come back in. I doubt its the clause 200k for a good player aint bad, so its down to the fact that Walter sees him in training and does not think he is up to it. Simple.

docspiderman 1,243 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 I watched Buffel and Burke in reserve games and the one who did not give a toss and who did not perform got back into the first team while the one who worked and stood out is still out in the cold. Maybe it is Durrant who has the problem with Buffel and has not given a good report? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

outlaw69uk 123 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 He is a guy am undecided about, definately has talent, although, its not finishing! I think I would be happy enough with him playing behind the likes of Boyd or Cousin, as he does make good attacking play, but, as we saw at the beginning of the PLG era (lol too short for an era really), he couldnt hit a barn door! Lack of composure in front of goal? In our current formation, he COULD work ok in the position Ferguson has been playing, with any 2 from Fergie/Thomson/Davis sitting deeper, but, who knows Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibleedblue 0 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 He should be given a chance in my opinion but I'm sure after one bad game though things would be completely different. Buffel was known for his amazing games but also his inconsistency. Walter Smith is looking for consistency in this squad and getting it in most areas maybe explaining the reason for not playing Buffel. Charlie Adam?

nvager 498 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Buffel and Gow -not to WS taste - that simple Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaltersGotStyle 160 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Gow is at best an average player! Buffel on the other hand could provide the team with some good link up play between the midfield and the front men that we have been lacking Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
californiadreamin52 339 Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 This player has taken on a stature above his own abilities without playing in the first team, but what people fail to remember is he ain`t got the bottle a hard tackle and the guy hides for the rest of the game. If we could have found a club for him he would have gone by now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
