oafc1955 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I'll be surprised if he scores more than a couple of goals this season, although he holds up the ball fairly well and assisted for Tounkara's goal he's not going to score the goals to keep up the challenge. You can see his experience and in his mind he knows what to do but his legs wont follow, he looks like he's running in quicksand and in front of goal he is no threat whatsoever. Now he's injured again and when fit will be playing for N Ireland again in February.....we really don't need this guy and I'd rather see Brooke given an extended run or another striker brought in if we are going to go for the playoffs.

LaticsLee Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Like I said in the other post after today I'd put morais and tonkuare up front against Walsall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancy lad Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I have been one of his biggest critics but thought the lad did well today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankly Mr Shankly Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 thought he played well today and got in good positions. you could tell he hasn't played in a while but i wouldnt write him off at the moment and i think he's better than brooke as he'll cause problems and get involved, brooke won't. Yeah, to be fair he had an excellent game and had he not gone off injured would have been a surefire candidate for MOM. His sublime bit of skill to wrap hit foot around the ball and push through to Taylor pretty much made the opening goal. Brentford were caught completely napping allowing Taylor to play a simple ball through for the Tank to run on and score. His other work on and off the ball was excellent.

bossrocks Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I've also criticised him in the past but he did play well today (although he does lack pace). Typical that just as he's starting to show a bit of form he gets injured again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Break The Silence Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I'm his biggest critic, think he's been utter pants so far! However, credit where credit's due, thought he was excellent today..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was excellent today, held the ball up well, played some great balls and flick ons and made a nuisance of himself. Excellent through ball for the goal and made some great chances for others around him, he complimented Tounkara's game and is what we've been missing all season. Did you notice how our game changed when we lost his experience; was it just me or did anyone else think the the challenge on him was a straight red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ritchie82 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Some morons have talked bollocks about Feeney on here when he hasn't had a decent run to get match fit. He's had a few games on the trot and he is playing better. As has been said possibly MOM if he'd have stayed on. Feeney is great at holding the ball up and that meant Tonks was 1-1 with the other centre and battered him. No centre half in this league can handle his pace and power, Feeney has the know how and guile. Taylor on the left, Morais on the right and those two up top, playoffs here we come.

Hometownclub Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I thought Feeney did okay today, I wouldn't go overboard with any MoM talk, but he held the ball up well. We did look much more dangerous going forward with the introduction of Morais and obviously his excellent goal did win us the game. As Feeney limped off he may be on the sidelines again depending on the extent of the injury, I just don't see him scoring many goals.

Macca Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Would you say Feeney's performance yesterday was like when O'Grady used to play for us? Doing all the hard work for others around him but failing to score himself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
