Martin Demichelis (continued)

Been good for several weeks now

Showed a lot of bottle.

Indeed. His decision making has been far better, there are virtually no mad dive ins 40 yards from our goal etc. He always had good, solid, responsible performances in him, particularly against the better teams or in situations where we were under the cosh for one reason or another but he is now consistently defending very well and seems to have recognised that he can't take liberties even against the "weaker teams."
 
Someone should tell him to keep his hair tied up during the warm up. I thought for a moment we had re-signed Samaras
 
This fella has done the business in recent weeks, he looks very composed with the ball at his feet now whereas, before the Hull match he looked really awkward with the ball.

P.S. Does he happen to knock around the club shop a lot? Lol. He was in there on that ITV4 documentary and a week later I went in and he was there with his missus.

He has aspirations to become the next Tony Pulis. Either that or he is being paid in club shop vouchers.
 
He's been fantastic since we played Newcastle at St. James' Park and was consistent before then as well. People just seem to think a lack of pace and fouling the world's best player is the worst crime in football and have subsequently allowed it to cloud their judgement.

He leads the defence when asked to, he reads the game better than most defenders in the Premier League, he's confident in possession & puts his body on the line when trying to win the ball back - and he's dangerous from corners. We've scored 5 or 6 goals this season thanks to his vision to pop up at either post.

Although it's no coincidence that as soon as the press stopped slagging him off, he's suddenly become Mr. Reliable Martin to Bluemoon. He's always been Mr. Reliable Martin, I'm just glad people are waking up to it at long last. It's not like he's 33-years-old and in his first season of English football, is it?
 
Playing brilliant now, has out performed Vinnie the past couple of months. Now starting to feel we got a bargain.

I agree, I think he is just another who needs a long time to settle in but fair play to him because in recent weeks he has been very good.

I still think we need to upgrade but in regards to back up CBs next season I don't think we can go wrong with having MDM in our squad. I doubt many would be saying that around January time.

Vinny looks burnt out to me, plus his injury has not helped at all.
