loyalroyal4lifebrendywendyloyalroyal4life we are screwed with pearce at cb, he was toilet against ipswich
hope Mcd plays griffin with kish and gunnar at RB even if the pace is lacking
seemed ok for the whole second half.
i think alot of the crap thats thrown his way is unwarranted. he made some mistakes when playing in a totally unsettled back four, mostly playing alongside another CB with no pace, while the whole team was playing shit and all over the place, under a mentalist manager who put too much pressure and expectation on his shoulders
under McD, and alongside mills/kish he'll be fine
& id rather have cisse than brynn personally
did you not see the 1st goal? he was beaten to the ball for the goal, the guy just doesnt cut it at this level at the moment

IMO youd get the same kind of mistakes from cisse/brynn/ivar if he was thrown on unexpectedly for ten minutes at the end of a 1st half, while they sorted themselves out too.
to use that as evidence that pearce is just shit and always will be strikes me as a bit harsh.
the whole defence looked shit under rodgers, and i think that McD would sort pearce out, and in a settled pacy and organised back 4 would be absolutely fine at this level

brendywendy i clearly meant that before there was no pace, and everyone played shit.
what im saying is, put a pacy CB alongside pearce, and like Ivar hell be fine.
add two full backs that know what their job is, and know how to do it and everyone suddenly looks great.

Pearce is shit because he's scared of the ball, incapable of passing, can't jump, isn't very tall, has limited heading ability, is prone to mistakes, has the turning circle of an oil tanker, and is about as pacy as my dad.
The thought of the short and slow Zurab playing alongside Pearce scares the hell out of me, as I said earlier, I'm glad were now safe.

PieEater .... and Bothroyd is 6ft 3, but I take your point Pearce is taller than I thought. His lack of spring deceived me.
Fortunately Cardiff are also scratching for centre halves, with Gyepes out.
p thanks for taking notice of the emotive stuff
