Mori’s stock has risen due to the poor performances of jags, Williams and Keane, not because of his defensive ability. He was prone to errors whilst he played for us.

Perhaps a little bit of time off the pitch will do Baines good, as he looked jaded and shamefully complacent in the last few fixtures he played in.

Sam was very quick to say he's not available today. I reckon he'll miss until Christmas..

I'd rather have a dead Robin Williams in defence than an alive Ashley bleedin' Williams. He really has proven to be a terribly bad buy. No leadership, slow, clumsy and all we see is him pulling his shirt over his head after another mistake.

Funny how’s players get better when they don’t play. Mori is atrocious, slow poor in the air for some 6ft 1. Passing awful and makes plenty of rash decisions.

That’s the sad bit as a lot of what you said is true - but he is still miles better than Williams !

He's great in the air! It's with the ball at his feet where he's had a few problems. I'd love him to come back and form a good partnership with Keane. Given time and not too much pressure (i.e. we ought to be way clear of relegation come mid January yet won't be challenging top 6) I think they could be a good team.

To slow, need at least one pacey defender.
And he’s not that great in the air. When West Ham best is 3-2 From 2 nil down. He was at fault for a couple of goals by getting beaten to easy on the edge of our box.
And when John terry scored in the 98th minute he got out jumped by a midget in our box. I don’t rate him and wouldn’t be bothered if he never played again for us.
Funes Mori isn't good enough for us. Having said that, he's probably better than Keane, Williams and Jagielka on present form. Jags has been good for us over the years - his partnership with Lescott was outstanding - but he's now well past it and should have been replaced at least two years ago. Williams looked good for Wales in the 2015 Euros but since then he's been a disappointment, and Keane looks totally lost.
Large Samuel must sign at least two defenders as soon as the window opens.

it's so [Poor language removed] typical. How are we constantly getting players with massively long lay offs? I suppose the bright light is that he may be back just in time for pre-season light training, but highly unlikely he'd be able to hit the group running in august.

We’re currently 6-9 points off some very overhyped sides who have been virtually injury free to their key players. Does make you think.

exactly. I do think our fans are guilty of hyping up a player too much when they're out injured. I mean nobody on here says mori is any good, but all of a sudden we started missing him. I know he'd have been as bad as keane, jags and williams were though, but in that instance, it was our own fault, it happened before the season started, we could have rectified it.
But 5 or 6 players all with long term injuries, we can't just go out and buy replacements for them all, our squad would be about 40 players big!
