He was bought at the start of the season to fill a gap because Vinnie and Nasty were both injured. I know he has made some alarming mistakes recently but where would we be if he wasn't in the squad?

And Javi has grown into a better player with more game time. As a defensive duo today they did the job that was thrown at them with Vinnie's dismissal. No matter what people's personal opinions of these two players at least have the decency to give them credit for their efforts today. Leave the slagging to another game (if it is needed that is)
 
Excellent performance yesterday. We were actually more organised once we were down to ten men.

For all the criticism he gets, he organised the back line superbly after Vinny went off.

By the way is it true that the fans were booing his selection? I hope that isn't true. Once he puts the shirt on we need to totally support him.
 
Someone did point out that one of the reasons for his good game yesterday might've been that we were forced to play more defensively, and therefore he got more protection. But yeah, we should definitely be supporting him when he puts the shirt on.
 
MDM Is a very good footballer, a leader which he showed in spades yesterday - instructing everyone to play a perfect line that nullified Hull's attacks. I don't think I've ever seen that many offsides since Paul Dickov played for us?

I know he has made mistakes, but some of the vitriol by fans has stooped to a new low. He is trusted by the Manager and since I think our Manager is the best around I support his judgement. We will get a new CB next year but MDM is a decent fella and could be vital in our quest for the title.
 
MDM and Lescott both good enough for most Premiership teams but are very short of Champions League levels. It was an immense defensive performance yesterday..the best we have produced for many months. For all the criticism we get our defence is still one of the best in the Premiership and only a few goals worse than Chelsea

Top of the league

I've said on this thread before that the thing that frustrates me about him most of all is that he is quite clearly capable of responsible, solid performances like yesterday, like at Newcastle away and a few others. It looks like a conscious decision to me to play in full kamikaze mode so often, I just don't get it.
