Martin Demichelis

[El Mago]

He's not suited to the high line we play and he isn't suited for English football. Strikers are able to turn him too easily and just get past him and once that has happened we are fucked as he is never going to catch up. It's this which is why he dives in time and time again because he knows he fucked up and doesn't have the pace to recover so goes in for a last ditch tackle and always fucks it up. Lescott is equally as slow but he actually has some brain cells so he doesn't go wandering up the pitch trying to get involved he just sits back and does his defensive duties when needed.

It is fucking pure insanity that Lescott is warming the bench and will be leaving in the summer but Demichelis starts nearly every game regardless of the many fuck ups and will be with us next season.

But Pellegrini decided to spend around 8 Million on him (Transfer Fees + Wages) to play this role...8 million.

A once really good player who has lost that vital yard of space.

It's no use pretending, he can't compete at the highest level anymore. Sad but true.

And so obvious. Yet we keep playing him

And we don't need to. That's what is even more annoying

I can't see any logic in it. Maybe MP and the coaching staff see things we don't?

Well these unseen things must amount to an awful lot to make up for the very costly errors

He's looking like a Rodney Marsh signing only much worse.

Scapegoat.

Picked on simply because the media dislike the fact he has apparently dislodged an Englishman in Lescott.

Truth is at this moment in time, he's quite comfortably our 2nd best centre half, despite any limitations he may have.

Totally disagree.

Limited defender, HUGELY prone to mistakes, to put quite simply, not good enough.

Lescott and Nastasic better. Would rather Garcia played there than him.

Now you're seriously taking the piss I will never read any of your posts as serious again ;-)

i thought we'd just bought him as cover in case every defender at the club got the flu or wanted to go on holiday at the same time but alas he was destined for the main centre back role.

demechelis makes garcia look like beckenbauer.

The lad cost us again today . I think Manuel needs to give him a rest for the rest of the season .

NO the team cost us today.

Initially i think he was, but then nastasic became an injury mess and never got his form back. Then we failed to land Mangala in the january t'fer window. Still, god knows why he prefers him over Lescott. Apart from the season finale game, Lescott had an awesome yr in 11/12, he hasnt played much in the last 2 years but he hasnt done a great deal wrong. He looks better at the back than Demichelis. I was a bit perplexed as to why we bought him anyways....His last days at Bayern, he was getting ripped apart.

Nothing good to say about him at all. Must have some seriously embarrassing pictures of the manager. Do not play him again - a liability.

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Can't see what he's got over pellegrini,fucking must be blackmail or something.

90's porn star fucked up for the pen but he also stopped another goal with a brilliant tackle towards the end of the match.
