2017/18 Ashley Williams

[n01efc]

Been decent the last three games. Great header too.

What have you been smoking???!!!!

He was alright in the main, but he's always got an error in him. The penalty tonight. Like Funes Mori he scares me.

Difference is Funes Mori is a much luckier player. His mistakes never seem to get punished, every mistake Williams makes results in catastrophe.

He got away with it tonight thanks to Pickford. Had Lanzini converted the pen our arses would have went.

Seems to be the same with Williams every week though, makes a few good clearances and interceptions before a moment of madness.

They do mate, it's just that Williams makes more of them.

No they don't

 

[brigadier]

His best game in months and still dog muck.

 

[COYBL25]

No they don't

Oh yes they do

 

[sageyefc]

Oh yes they do

Stats don't lie

[Walken]

was his best game, and he still created their two best chances, kind of pleased for him to get a goal, but can't be a first choice player

 

[Tin-Tin]

Started off really well then went full on Ashley Williams for about 15 minutes. He needs to just calm down and concentrate on the basics as it seems his head just goes sometimes.

 

[billyblue80]

Better than he has been but still capable of moments of insanity

I honestly think that there is something going on with Ashley. Problems at home, psychological problems, etc. He seems shot this season. Glad he got a goal tonight, hope it picks him up.

 

[Abraders]

Good goal, didn't expect it whatsoever.

Played well in general

To me he just looks really unfit and I don't know how that can be the case other than maybe his age means he can't keep up with the training demands anymore. He always looks 3 seconds behind the passage of play and doesn't have the legs to ever catch up and correct himself. The thought of seeing him having to defend against Salah, Mane and Firmino in the derby makes me want to start a petition demanding his forced and immediate retirement.

Honestly think he's just reached that stage where "it" goes and can never be recovered. Need to do what we did with Distin and never use him again after January, preferably not before then either. He got a goal tonight but it shouldn't make people forget the fact that he's been practically throwing the ball into our net all season and very likely could have cost us 3 points tonight if not for Pickford. It's over for him.
