Craig Noone

Just watched The Blackburn goal what the bloody hell was Graig Noone doing he had forever and a day to clear the ball instead he just fell on his arse.
I don't know what's happened to him but he's been woefull all season and at the moment he is nothing more than a water carrier brings nothing to the side at all.
Can't tackle looks unfit and his crossing shot to pieces, how a player can go so far backwards is beyond me.

On the lash all the time took his chance in the prem give it his all.
his dreams over now hes never going to be a top flight star how does one stay motivated after reality kicks in?

and you will find that with all championship clubs alot of players are left depleted on personal agendas those who don't stay
top flight feel the dreams over. It depends what mindset the player has

Noone was totally at fault for their goal he was useless other then that I really enjoyed that game , kennedy WOW

Noone seems to have lost confidence , he doesn't look to take players on as much as he used to unfortunately

Actually he tries to take on players too much and loses the ball when you have two or three players around you you need to pass the ball, like kennedy

Thought he had his best game for ages last night, pity about mistake for their goal !

If that was his best game for ages, I wouldn't have him anywhere near the first team again. He's playing his way out of the team and will never get back to the standards of last season in my opinion.

Should of been sold in my opinion. I would of accepted any fee just to get rid Championship Manager style

When last night's game started I thought here we go, the pennies dropped at last and Slades told Noone to start on the left and stay there. I was thinking he's been told to just get a yard on the defender then sling in a cross for Jones or Doyle. Slade might have told the two strikers to be aware and get your noggins on some of the multiple crosses coming your way!

To me that would have been an improvement.

Trouble was he didn't beat his man that often and when he did he regularly lost the ball. I remember one time in the first half when he managed to beat the defender, not with skill, but by running on to a through ball. Along with everyone else I glanced inside and true enough there were the two front men expecting a cross but ducking Noone crossed the ball out past the near post with pathetic half hearted mess.

He's in a dreadful run of form. If he was a horse he'd have been put down. We must have better than him if we just need someone to play wide left and get in loads of crosses. There's at least two obvious ones that everyone of us could name!

Yep he always goes one to far agree with you

Needs to be dropped, not through lack of effort buy I think we all agree why.

That is why we'll never develop our players anymore. Unforgiving supporters that will not tolerate any mistakes or allow players time to improve.

Yay lets slag another player off, Noones turn this week

That is why we'll never develop our players anymore. Unforgiving supporters that will not tolerate any mistakes or allow players time to improve.

But he's not played a decent game all season.

These are only opinions but I suppose we could all Bury our heads in the sand and follow blindly.

Not many of the players have played well this season, but most of them played well last night. Just because he was a bit behind the team last night, he may be motm on saturday.

Really? I thought he was shit. His crossing is so poor.

Noone was totally at fault for their goal he was useless other then that I really enjoyed that game , kennedy WOW

Noone was one of 4 players at fault for the goal. Whittingham allowed their player to walk through him, then Manga put in a half hearted challenge failing to stop him, then Morrison unnecessarily charged out to leave Joshua King unmarked when Kennedy was already in position to force him wide (why Morrison didn't hold his position to deal with the cross is beyond me, he always makes rash charges out into no mans land, Middlesbrough's second goal being a classic example) and then finally, Noone miskicked the ball!

My main concern with Noone being picked each week is,what encouragement does it give to the squad members if a player is continually selected when playing below par. If a player doesn't play well for two or three games,he should be rested and someone else given a chance. This should apply to all members of the squad which will ensure they play to the best of their availability.
