(01 May 2016, 4:04 pm)Tom wrote Townsend is very good yeah, and for a player who supposedly has attitude problems! Shame Shelvey didn't live up to expectations but I said that from the start. Haven't seen much of Saviet which is a shame but Tiote has solid recently.
Aye Darlow is canny - I think he was thrown in at the deep end v West Brom and everyone wrote him off. Fair play to him. We definitely need back up in defence though, Janmaat can go too as I don't think he is good enough or cares and, Anita seems to be better at RB than CM!
I'd love him to score the winner in the final game, imagine if that keeps us up!
It is a shame with Shelvey, I just don't think he's made for a relegation battle. Saivet I rated in the Everton(?) game, but Rafa sees him train daily so I trust his judgement. Tiote seems to have gone back to what he was good at originally, winning the ball and giving it straight away, in the late-Pardew/Carver/SMC era he tried to doo too much in my opinion.
He seems to be getting more and more confident, which for a goalkeeper is only a good thing. Janmaat I always rated, however since Anita has filled in at right back it's obvious how poor Janmaat is defensively.
