Swap For Cech

[donaldo71]

At Chelsea he had Terry and Cahill diving in front of the ball at Arsenal he has two scared pussies who turn their backs on the ball in case it ruins their make up.2nd week running Kos bottled it.Oh for a TA or Sol in our defence

Anyone else agree here that on Saturday (and the defensive mistakes in mind) that we should drop per and have Gabriel and kos play in front of cech ?

1. Kos never reacted when the shammers free kick was taken for their first goal

2. Kos made zero attempt to close down zarete's shot for the second goal despite the fact that he was the nearest defender to him

All this and you want to drop BFG ahead of kos ?? Some people cant see beyond their dislike of mertesacker

Just watched the highlights again, i agree with your first point augie but the second goal there was an oppertunity for per to come and attack the ball instead he stood still.

I would also like to point out that i for one have never had an out an out go at mertasacker on this forum apart from suggesting he should be dropped for the palace game. Again and for the second time in as many posts try and read what your actually acussing me of doing/saying before you post.

Benji, my criticism of your post was in no way a personal attack on what you said. All that being said, you did say that you believed that the BFG should be dropped and you may say that you weren't having an out and out go at the bfg, but dropping him when his defensive partner was far worse, suggests a decision not being made based on match performances

that's fair enough buddy I see where you are coming from in hindsight after seeing him turn his back to the goal on Sunday I was very disappointed in kos
