Unsung: Sagna

Post by Pott »

Yeah I just saw him play today... He delivers some very good crosses and I've rarely seen him make any huge mistakes. He gets injured once a year, sure, but he plays full 90 minutes the other times and always puts in the effort.

TBH he's had a poor season . If you had seen more games this season you wouldn't have been impressed

He puts in some very good crosses??? Apart from today please name one? His crossing has been abysmal, either hits the first man, over hits by a country mile or sends it out for a goal kick!

He took the corners today - really dont know why, but his cross for the Bendtner goal was superb, Great day in the end! :)

He's a decent player but has gone backwards over the last year or so. Eboue on the other hand has gone forwards.... in fact, I'd probably play Eboue ahead of Sagna on Tuesday.

I personally think he is the best right back in the league, i might be a bit biased but i think he is.

one good cross does not a world-class full-back make.

i think our demands of him are based on his awesome first season. he is an excellent defender but his crossing is dire.

The standards of RBs in this league is generally low. The top two sides have Ivanovich and Brown (or Neville). Sagna's only competition is from Eboue and Johnson IMO

And in international I'd say only Alves is on par with him. I think people are being a little too critical on Sagna :?

not being critical, he is deff one of the best RBs around but going forward...mainly crossing the ball he isn't any good, even today, look at his head and where he is looking

http://www.soccerclips.net/videos/arsen ... s-bendtner

straight down at the ball, doesnt look up once.

still, went in so at this point in time, WHO CARES :barscarf:

edit...think he may of took a look up actually

*sits down,shuts up* :lol: :oops:
