Raven close to start against Palace

[DT]

good enough for a fuirst team call up more regularly would you think?

 

I think he's consistently better than Josemi, let's just put it that way.

[MLB]

I really hope the lad does well. He can't possibly be any worse than Josemi. Fuck, Xavier on smack couldn't be worse than Josemi.

I think he's been better than Josemi in the games I've seen, so I'd be surprised to see the Spaniard play any more games ahead of him this season, I really would.

[DT]

Fuck, I thought the other post had been lost. Never mind.

[chrisbonnie]

cheers for the info, looking forward to this game now

[bigredruss]

he can't be any worse than josemi. good luck to the kid, hopely better than his last game against burnley

[Captain]

I thought he did well. He's light years ahead of Josemi, that's for sure.

[WeAreTheBest]

He did ok, Whitbread was shit

[Captain]

Yeah, Whitbread struggled. As did Warnock.

[Brownie]

Yeah, Whitbread struggled. As did Warnock.

 

Warnock was woeful.

[MLB]

The whole defense was bad. Terrible, in fact. Raven and Sami were slightly better than the other two, but still not good enough.

I think some are looking through rose tints here. The lad was awfull! His delivery into the box was dreadfull. He rarely looked like making a challenge.

 

This is not an answer to the right full position.

 

Do him and Potter play a lot on the right in the ressies as they looked like strangers.

 

I also think they both looked overawed to be in the team, not shooting or taking responsibility etc. Look at wot youngsters brought in at scum central do!! There is no comparison.

 

It may not be their fault but it is their responsibility to take their chance if they can.

[Captain]

Potter looked out of position, which is exactly what he was. So no, I don't think Potter plays on the right for the reserves. I think Raven did well. He defended well but didn't offer a lot going forward.

 

I would not expect that from him in his first game of the season in a second string team that wasn't exactly on fire.

 

It's Raven over Josemi every time for me. If Finnan isn't fit for West Ham, Raven should play imo.

[fivetimes]

i didnt think raven played that well (he has done previously), and whitbread would be miles out of his depth at the top level.

 

Its very different at reserve level no matter how good they are at it!

 

Warnock is good for an hour, then his concentration seems to go, its happened a few times this season.
