Dig Dig Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 Been awful for a fair few games now. Lacks composure and strength, dives in and often misses the simple pass. Stephens looked much more better in the middle when he came on, id start with him next game. Plus he has much more hair, looks nicer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colinjb Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 I love Chappy, but he is not at his best right now. Give Stephens a go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dellman Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 Chappy's got energy he runs and runs but a bit like a headless chicken, Stephens looked calm and used the ball well, first choice on current form Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 Agreed, his performances are not close to being good enough at the moment. We improved when he went off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperMikey Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 Didn't see the game today but would like to see Stephens play against Charlton on Tuesday. He sounds like a composed playmaker, something that we lack when Schneiderlin isn't in the side. Stick him in alongside Hammond in the centre. Chaplow has done well for us but it sounds like his form is deteriorating and at this point we can't afford to have weak links in our team.

Glasgow_Saint Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 who is NA's best signing now? Forte I guess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seaford Saint Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 I thought he played well...maybe it s me but I rate him. Closing and donkey work, breaking up play, did lose the ball too but in my opinion he earned his wages today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky Redstripe Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 I thought Chaplow and Hammond worked hard today but just didn't get the breaks. I thought Harding was the weak link today, every touch of his was either a cross which went over and above every player, or he put other players in trouble with his passing. But I suppose every player has off days and it does none of them any good to run them down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alanh Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 Thought Chaplow had one of his better games today. Obviously his substitution was part of a tactical change from NA, but it was definitely a step up fropm recent matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rshephard3 Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 The fact is that today being one of chaps better games is exactly the problem. When deano is off just a little bit we need someone who is simply better than chaplow at controlling things and taking responsibility for midfield control. Forte will get the headlines but we were so much better in the middle without chaplow on the pitch failing to really have any impact AGAIN. New guy looked good to me. He looks more likely to help out when hammond doesnt quite hit his usually very high standards. Chaplow is good when the team is good. Centre mids cant afford to have too much of this in their game.

Badger Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 Does Chaplow offer less to our MF than Hammond ? Personally I doubt it, and there were numerous times today when Hammond seemed to mistime a pass or tackle thin air.But either would be in the team ahead of Guly.

Nexstar Posted 3 April, 2011 Share Posted 3 April, 2011 Hammond was poor and terribly lazy for the first 70 minutes. Defensive mid is not his position for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNSUN Posted 3 April, 2011 Share Posted 3 April, 2011 Big fan of Chaplow but yes, he's out of form, and is prone to running around like a headless chicken. Stephens in for the next match, and reward Forte with a start in place of Guly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capel Saint Posted 3 April, 2011 Share Posted 3 April, 2011 Chaplow on occasion seems to be a little lightweight in this league and gets muscled off the ball at times. Also his performances aren't that consistent and can see why he hasn't settles into a side long term. That said, when he does play well he is an asset to the team and is good going forward behind the strikers. Would like to see Stephens given a go as he could be a better option.

Saint_clark Posted 3 April, 2011 Share Posted 3 April, 2011 (edited) Hammond was poor and terribly lazy for the first 70 minutes. Defensive mid is not his position for sure Well i'd say he's been one of the stand out performers over the last 2 months whilst playing in defensive midfield.
