Fitz Hall....

[MattyRangers]

I bet posts like this raise players confidence through the rooftop
Jeezzzezz.

Is this the way forward really?

You mean discussing our opinions on the players? And theres me thinking this is what a forum was for....

If players get upset and cant take negative comments on a forum without it affecting their confidence then they dont deserve to be picking up a big old wedge everyweek to wear the Rs shirt. Im sure theyre all big enough and ugly enough to take fans comments on the chin and be prepared to up their game as a result.

Wouldl confidence have anything to do with Fitz or is he just a poor player I know my opinion

I can clearly see your point as wel! His(our) problem is that he seldom is 100% fit to play, even when he is selected. He is an injury waiting to happen actually, which must be a nightmare to deal with for the manager and the physio.

Hall didn't get a sniff at Samba for the equaliser.I know Samba is huge but at 6'3" Hall is not exactly small.Very weak in defence and powder puff at set pieces.Perone looks more effective from what I've seen.Get Bassong asap.

Samba's a big unit but so is Fitz... I reckon Fitz is actually 2 inches taller than Samba so to get comprehensively beaten in the air is scandalous. As a CB you don't really need to win the ball; just do enough to stop the attacker getting a clean header in on target. Conceding from a corner to a header from the penalty spot is just embarassing really. I could understand seeing our defence ripped apart by the pace and movement of Defoes, Drogbas, Hernandezs etc etc but just being bullied out of it is really aggravating!

Sorry Guys Fitz has to go he's been shocking, Neil needs to look at his team selection than blaming others, also looking at Anton Ferdinand he seems to be getting knocked around too easily, not sure he's up to it either. I assume because Gabbidon & connelly injured there's no other option, but please hurry and find one N.W. we have to get at least 20 pts by the end of December, and with 5 very tough games to come things are looking dodgy?

IMO, Anton has been solid for us.
