If Robertson isn't fit Saturday move Chambers into his position and Daaland centre back.

This isn't a knee jerk reaction for about a year now Siopis has been awful and last night he literally looked like a boy playing with men.

He was embarrassed a few times when trying to make a challenge last night ending up on the deck.

He has a simple job to break up play and give it to out better ball players, all he does now is run around like a hamster is a wheel not affecting the game at all.

If he has to play, it would be good if he slowed his play down. All this sprinting and just wanting to get rid of the ball ASAP is leading to mistakes and is not calming for the players around him.

Chambers is far too slow and immobile to play CDM, I'd say Dalaand is much better fit for me, he's comfortable on the ball, he likes to roam and get forward, as we seen against the jacks. he reminds me of John Stones in regards of going forward and floating in and around the CDM/6 role

I Would like to see Robertson and Daaland both in the starting 11 v Blackburn .

Why is he performing for Greece at a very high level, but not really for us? What a strange one. Is the demand of the championship too much for him?

I agree though, we're weaker with him in and Robertson out.

I agree TC, far too much quality to leave on the bench. :bluescarf:

I like his energy. Yes he does run round like a headless chicken, but a lot of his work breaking up play goes unnoticed.
My only gripe with him is that he NEVER has a fecking crack at goal. He can receive the ball in a decent position and always passes it sideways or backwards. This kills any attacking momentum.

Have you ever seen him shoot? It's better that he passes to someone else.
