Leon Osman

[Kev The Rat]

shocking tonight nearly put baines in hospital with one of his 'passes'

 

[matty1878]

He's past it. Should of not Been and and mirallas instead.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Far from a fan but he did fine. Better than I expected anyway. Criticism is way off.

 

[eurosrees]

Easy target, but he was rubbish tonight, his passing is either too short or to a players head (reminds me of Phil Nev). Surely we have better options availabl, it's 2016 and it feels like he's never going to go away.

 

[Chang Elephant]

A change that confirms some deep seated mental issues with El Coco

 

[MACCA75]

Did ok, might need him and Pienaar given the injury problems.

 

[orly]

Took the pace out of the game at a key moment. Frustrating and usually one of the great targets of my ire but good sub tonight

 

[blueblue]

Had a good solid game, worked hard and did a good job with the rest of our midfield.

Exactly this. He played very well today. Took the pace out of the game and showed his experience which at times we;ve been sorely missing. Knowing when not to keep attacking and when to just take the sting out of the game has been something we;ve missed and he's very good at that.

That was the noticeable difference tonight, we were much calmer. I think having Osman, Baines and Barry all playing was central to this.

Did really well when he came on apart from that one shocking pass to Baines, really Baines should of let that go, aside from that thou he was fine.

 

[Fearthainn]

OK I suppose. Why not Lennon though?

 

[EFCPaul]

He offers absolutely nothing anymore no matter where he plays or even if comes off the bench. Pathetic that he still gets any sort of game, I literally cannot wait until the day he retires.

 

[admirschleck]

He was not bad. His passes are just awful, though.

 

[Gwladysstreetlad]

Still bealieve Osman has somthing to offer the club. Albeit in a very limited role.

 

[Neiler]

Didn't see that one coming.
