Re: Glen Johnson
Think the fact he was not beaten by a Welsh player today is a reflection of how poor Wales are rather than Johnsons outstanding defensive attributes
Dax777 said:Perhaps on the opinion, we can agree to disagree. As everyone is free to have an opinion that differs. But as to the facts, you'd have to agree that today he was not beaten once by Wales. For someone who is supposed to be a shaite defender, that isn't very good evidence.dctid said:We will have to agree to disagree - pretty much most pundits believe that Johnsons is most effective as an attacking full back but is a poor defender - personally i think he is a poor defender and is an accident waiting to happen
As for the pundits, sorry to say but most English pundits are shaite! Better yet most Media pundits are shaite. They mostly dabble in cliches. If a fullback is good going forward, you can bet your last pound most English pundits will cal him poor defensively. This is just a generalization. It is often not necessarily true of the players being labeled.
