Cisse

[1973 ranger]

Cisse was terrible yesterday very very lazy player, He seems to stay a club for around 18 months to 2 years maximum and haviing watched you can see why. Another great decision by hughes to have 3 forwards in the squad one of which is Johnson who was never going to last a season injury free.

Could say the same for Mackie in the first half, he had quite a few chances to pass to Cisse when 1 on 1.

Spot on...

It amazes me how the Mackie lovers are so blinkered they can call any other player greedy... Mackie never passes when we have good breaks. First half yesterday there were at least 2 or 3 times he could've slipped in Cisse and chose to run into players instead. One especiallyt when Cisse made a great run lef and both CB's went towards Mackie.... all he had to do was play the ball between the CB's into space and Cisse would've been clear with about 20 yards to himself.

Mackie's only thought is for himself whnen he has the ball and there's very rarely end product. He weas also stupid to get himself off for the disallowed goal..... can see the defensive line infront of him and just drifted offside, completely unecessarily.

Hes not lazy, he makes plenty of runs but of late nobody releases the ball.... no wonder when he has it he then tends to try to do something with it.

We can't use his pace rightly. We should pass the ball quicker to an open space for him, but our play makers have been Taarabt and Granero who both are too slow passers.

Exactly.

Loads of fans started moaning he got offside and I made the point he wasn't getting gametime with the new midfield bar sub appearences. They needed to know his game and runs and him thieir style and liklihood to release a pass. Its all about timing like a relay changeover.

Now since Reading he's played and hardly been offside at all which proves the point, yet many still go on about him being off all the time. These are they same fans who ignored the fact he was making plenty of runs (leading to him being off when Taarabt, Mackie Granero et al didn't pass quick enough) to instead call him lazy. Its harsh imo.

If he never made any runs and just waited for the ball he'd be lazy.
