SORRY WHITTS

Sat Dec 29, 2012 8:03 pm

only once today did I see him head the ball , I say once it was 3 times in the same challenge , come of a player he headed the ball it came back , he headed it again didn't go that far tried again and this time missed it.
He keeps bottling it in a 50/50 ball and just sticks out the odd leg now and again, I like what Whitts can do but the last few game he don't even look half the player he was.
At the start of last season Malky told all the players ,that our defense started up front , and Whitts was putting a few good tackles which help to break up attacks from the other team.
Now he is just backing off , backing off & backing off , if he put a few more tackles in at least it would stop them in midfield. Ok he may not be a winner Midfielder but when its only you and another player running at you surely to god have a go. Not just back off all the time , or just stick one leg out, and think ok that's it.

He helped keep things calm in the last 10 minutes when he got back into it. A dozen threads have been made about this already

Exactlly enough threads get made about Rudy and Cowie and how shit they are, whitts deserves to be criticised. Made a couple of great balls but was very, very poor today

Cant anyone see that he is being played far to deep ? What a waste of a very special talent. A bit like playing RVP in goal :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

He's NOT being played too deep. He drops off to give himself more
room on the ball. Malky wants him in that final third more.

Re: SORRY WHITTS

Lets face it even his free kicks now don't go up and over but straight into the wall, and his corners are nothing like they use to be.

Dave he is being used in front of the back four. And Whitts himself said at the beginning of the season he doesn't like playing that deep. He can't produce the magic that we know he can do. And in my opinion he is wasted in the position that can be filled by many. But no one can do the attacking central role as well as Whitts can :ayatollah:

Clueless. This coming from the guy who thought only a few days ago that Peterborough could make the play offs. :lol:

Wow his free kick hit the wall. Not even Messi or Ronaldo score from every free kick :roll:

He helped set up the goal taking a knock in the process, kept possession well, especially last 15 mins, killing the game off.

Don't try tell me what I'm thinking about, What I seen down the CCS on the day we play them , they play us of the park and made us look very average, and I'm not the only one who seen that.
I ask this question on the performance we all seen down there if anyone thought that the posh could be pushing for a place in the play off pure and simple. As Malky said 2 days ago, anyone can put a five game run together and they will start to build Gaps.
Which means if the Posh was to do that, and other teams were to go on a bad run on five games they could shoot up the table, and the season is only half way through. I'm thinking of everything and nothing, so don't try to tell people what Im thinking when you cant even think for your self you pratt.

They are around 20 points off the play offs and in 22nd place dumbo how can all the clubs in between them and 6th place go on a losing run of 5 games.

Do the math you idiot

He has been low key for a while now, however we dont know what Malky asking him to do, however he does need to raise his game and attack a bit more. :shock: :shock:

I feel not only should he Attack more but more than once on Saturday he had a good chance of getting a 50/50 ball but all he did was stick out a leg and then pull away, Most of the other players has gone out for a game or 2 with knock why ? cos they get stuck in. Ok you could say but we dont wont Whitts out, so Malky may have said stay away . But I don't thing so, Malky want all players starting from the front to defend as well as attack , his words not mine.

Whitts has done nothing for weeks. Yes he can deliver great corners and free kick but his contribution to the game is minimal. Cant tackle cant head the ball so why is he in the centre of midfield. Perhaps he needs a kick up the backside by being dropped. Gunnarsson is by a mile our best midfield player. Play Mutch alongside him in the absence of Whitts. Mutch seemed to be finding some form when he came on against Milwall. :?:

I really can’t believe this nonsense, without Peter we wouldn’t be where we are. He is without doubt one of the best players in the Championship and thank feck he’s ours. I agree he had a quiet game Saturday but so did most of the team. I would go as far as to say that was the worst game I’ve seen all season. Both teams made it look like a Sunday league game, the quality was that poor. I have never seen so many unforced errors in one game, heading tennis that went on for ever and first time touches that in the end made you laugh.
If he played to the high standards he sets every week, it’s as simple as this - He wouldn’t be playing for us :o

Its absolute clueless nonsense.

How many goals / assists has he got this season?

Paul Scholes cant win headers or tackle either :roll:

Drop Whitts for Mutch? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Mon Dec 31, 2012 9:49 am

Some of our fans are so frigging stupid its embarrassing. Whitts has been class all season. He's not Messi. Unless our players do everything and anything people moan. Sod off with your moaning culture and bad attitude, we've been immense so far this season and look at the top scorers chart, not one player on it because the contribution is coming from every player working hard. Anyone slagging off any player so far is an idiot and that includes the likes of Rudy. If we won the Champions League in 2 years time some of our fans would still moan that we didn't do it in the style of Barcelona and played boring. Delusional idiots.

Yes I would prefer him further forward but hes still pulling the strings from deep.

Did you not see the sublime switch pass that released Noone for the goal on Saturday?
