Why are people blaming koscielny for that? It was squillaci's fault for charging in to head a ball that koscielny clearly had covered.
Maybe he should have gone down and im no doctor, but maybe he wasn't thinking too clearly what with concussion and all?

I watched the goals late last night and I have one serious question to ask.....how the fcuk is kos getting the blame for their goal ??
Basic principles of football has always been that the man who is facing the ball takes control and kos did that and won the fcuking header so what more can he do ?? The other dithering *word censored* was running back towards his own goal, had no place going for the header and even if he did head it he wouldnt have had a fcuking clue where it would have gone
By all means blame kos for goals like the blackburn goal but ffs try and analyse a situation properly before trying to attach blame to the same old names



looked to me like he tried to play on, presumably cos the ball was in a dangerous area and he didn't want to let the team down by hitting the deck while they're still attacking (if the ref doesn't stop the game, and who's to say he will just because technically he should). he had a second to make that decision, after being twatted in the face!
i don't get the hate for him, stepanovs and cygan are very fresh in my memory and he's certainly not as bad as either of them, unlike either of them he's very good on the ball, as well as being better than them defensively. the problem kos has got, is that he hasn't got vieira, gilberto or even flamini in front of him helping him.
i wouldn't start him ahead of djourou, but as a 3rd choice he's not that bad

Exactly, Song was anonymous yesterday so they were just waltzing through the middle. Kos and Squillaci aren't a good partnership though, Djourou & Squillaci or Kos & Djourou.nexum5me wrote:looked to me like he tried to play on, presumably cos the ball was in a dangerous area and he didn't want to let the team down by hitting the deck while they're still attacking (if the ref doesn't stop the game, and who's to say he will just because technically he should). he had a second to make that decision, after being twatted in the face!

Agree with this. . I think some of criticism that Koscielny recieved in past few weeks should have been aimed at Squilachi. I think his purchase was a big mistake.augie wrote:I have to say that right now my choices for the centre back partnership would be kos and djouru cos I think that squilachi is absolute shitI cannot for the life of me understand how squillachi seems to be able to hide in the background without criticism whilst kos is expected to win the headers and provide the pace to cover off at the back
What exactly is it that squillachi brings to the team then ?

I think the problem is that we're already comparing him to the likes of Stepanovs and Cygan, despite having paid £10m for him just four months ago. Surely that can't bode well?nexum5me wrote: i don't get the hate for him, stepanovs and cygan are very fresh in my memory and he's certainly not as bad as either of them

Disagree, while gallas was a better defender then these two on his day he was also imo highly responsible for a lot of the points we dropped away to lesser teams in the past few years. I'd rather defenders that are imperfect and perhaps still adapting then a *word censored* who picks & chooses when he wants to show up.mikeyb772001 wrote:Both of them are avaerage. Even though Billy was a c**t, we down graded.
Waste of money both the new CB's
