What is the use of a Stam copy if he can't read the game? Anticipation, positioning, etc. all most important things for a defender, he ain't got it...
If he won't mark his man well, you got jack about his height. This post has been edited by CHU-LIP: Jun 15 2010, 11:47 AM |

I still think since you and his other detractors dislike him, you're falling into the trap (as we all do) of taking one mistake and showing it up as an example of his incompetence.
I can remember in my head three goals (don't remember who scored) where Maldini is at fault in marking, or giving the player space. Yet I wouldn't question the man's marking or positioning sense. I remember the Gerrard goal. I also remember the remaining 80 minutes where the entire England offence was pretty much put on a leash. They kept coming at the US...and well the game finally ended. Gooch was my pick of the US defence. |

I think perhaps we're being a little harsh on the guy who we haven't really seen given a chance for the club. Let him have a few games and if he really sucks after that then I'll pack his bags myself.

Why don't you mention one of his mistakes then? You seem to keep talking about them but can never actually name an instance....

The thing is. If we want Milan to do well, we can't give every bad player a fair chance. Someone you sign should deserve a shot, but as long as we sign awful players like Onweyu, Mancini, etc. then we surely do something wrong. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) This kind of players I don't want to see here, I want them out asap!

His positioning and anticipation skills are awful. Re-watch the England-USA game, and count all the poor offside choices and marking mistakes he committed in the first half. The guy has no sense of orientation, and for a defender that is fatal. This post has been edited by X-Offender: Jun 15 2010, 03:58 PM |

Does it occur that he's lacking match practise? After all he was excellent in the Confeds during a time he was a regular for Standard Liege - since going to Milan he's barely played at all for various reasons. I am willing to give him a chance seeing as so few others are. |

Great. Let's also give a chance to Blasi and Zebina whilst we're at it.

We should also give Roma a fair shot being our first goalkeeper and not only Storari and Abbiati. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

QUOTE Onyewu rejects loan offers, wants to stay at Milan
AMSTERDAM – Fresh off World Cup duty, US defender Oguchi Onyewu is busy swatting away loan offers with the intention of establishing himself in season two with AC Milan. The 28-year-old was limited to just a lone Champions League substitute appearance with the Rossoneri after suffering a knee injury against CONCACAF World Cup qualifying foe Costa Rica last October. Onyewu arrived to San Siro as a free signing away from Standard Liège, and recently extended his contract through 2013 by offering to play the added year for free to make up for the season lost to injury. "There's a lot of interest in Gooch on a loan basis," Onyewu rep Lyle Yorks told MLSsoccer.com. "There's interest from a big club in Scotland and other clubs in Spain." Italian papers have claimed Chievo is a loan suitor and the agent confirmed Turkish reports that Eskişehirspor has been courting Onyewu -- but warns not to believe everything you read. "Some of them are rumors, some of them are legit," stated Yorks of the various reports. "At this point, his intention to return to AC Milan. There's been a lot of requests for Gooch. They've all been dismissed. He wants to go back to AC Milan." |
