Player thread: Fernando (2014/15)

Re: Fernando

Had a shocker today; badly at fault for the Spurs goal, and it happened several times. Hopefully it was a one-off. He wasn't on his own either, which is weird considering we won 4-1. Merlin was as poor as I've seen him, the defensive unit was well below par and Navas was frustrating. Only Joe, Jimbo and Kun played up to par really. And Dinho and Yaya weren't bad when they came on.

Re: Fernando

I'll give him a bit of leeway, as he's just back from injury. I'm sure he'll pick up and get back to his badass best.

Jovetic was very good when he come on too imo. It's frustrating though that no one passes to him early. Navas was very frustrating late on alright. Thought Fernando just was rusty. Some excellent passing and some awful composure.

I was at the game, and thought that was a fairly reasonable assessment (although I thought Navas did OK).

I've been impressed with Fernando so far, but he was sloppy today and looked off the pace. Not the only one to be fair, but he was a liability at times. He looked slow and sluggish in possession.

Re: Fernando

The most active topic after a 4-1 thumping of Spurs at home is about a player coming back from injury who, shockingly, isn't fully up to speed yet.

Perhaps. But his decision-making and passing was so awry my take on it was that his head was elsewhere. Possibly a personal issue. Who knows, could have had a barney with his missus via text before the game.

Whatever it was his mind wasnt tuned into the game and it was a very uncharacteristic performance from Fernando. Doubt we'll see the likes again from the lad.

Hahaha, maybe he just had a shit game, footballers, even the best, do this.

Too many flicks from Jovetic for my liking.

I'm basing my judgement on what I was told and the highlights on MOTD. Can't be arsed going to watch them any more.

Re: Fernando

He was shocking today, gave no protection and was very poor in possession.
