Big fish in a small pond at Sunderland me thinks.Danny Rose for me. Had a good season at Sunderland, but has seemed very limited with us.
Yeah, not ready to take the next step it seems.Big fish in a small pond at Sunderland me thinks.
Partly disagree. I know Rose is not too popular here but his start of the season was really good under AVB. After his injury Sherwood came in as manager and played his stupid 4-4-2. On the wing we had either Sigurdsson or Eriksen, two attack-minded offensive midfielders that used to play in the middle of the pitch rather than running up and down the flank. Further, in CM Sherwood often played without any serious holding midfielder who could help on the left flank during counter attacks, just because there weren't enough other players to cover the center of the pitch.
As a result, Rose always had to do the job of two in defense, often dealing with the opposite full back and winger. Walker never had that problem because Lennon gave him the support in defense Eriksen and Sigurdsson didn't. And honestly, Walkers crosses aren't any better than Roses. So it's a bit unfair to judge Rose that bad.
I've never been a fan of Siggy, thought it was a mistake to sign him when he could be getting decent game time at a smaller club, but not sure he's had enough games to be in with a shout of worst player of the season.Hard to say got a couple for different reasons.
Rose- think Gibbs summed it up
Lennon/Townsend - did almost nothing this season
Verts/dembele/Sandro - terrible attitude all season, the guys who should be leading the team but bottled it big time.
Siggy - odd goal but is more lightweight than an ant, always feel depressed when he is on the pith.
When I compare them to loris, ade, eriksen, benteleb and yes even Dawson it feels like we have such a mix of qualities and attitude.

Danny Rose by a mile.
He made a pigs ear of the high line and every defender near him suffered from having to overextend. We didn't have many defensive problems at cb until he was introduced.
He could have ended Kabouls Spurs career due to lack of positional sense. He's given hospital passes, steped on the ball vs the scum, got sent off, had meltdowns, was part of the dire wingplay that ruined soldados chances of scoring and has compounded every problem this team has. Intelligence, creativity, team shape, experience, height, power and playing as a team.
IMO Rose is a caricature of everything wrong with this club. Young, dumb, light weight and head down.
Long term ironically he's done us a favor. I can't think of another player who's accumulation of gaffes helped get AVB and Tim (hopefully) the sack.
Good job rosesy! Silver linings and all that.
Watch him play a blinder today and mug another manager for next season.
