American in defending Howard shocker. He's terrible and has been all season, have you not been watching? How many long range shots does he let float in? How often do we concede terrible goals because he won't come off his line? How many times has his terrible decision making come back to bite us? I'd pay his for his ticket back the US myself if an MLS side comes in for him. When he redeems himself? Jog on, his best days are long gone and things will only continue to go downwards from here, the odd good save aside.
Who else has been diabolical? A lot of people. Alcaraz, Distin have been just as pathetic as Howard whenever they've played. If both are given new contracts I will refuse to renew my season ticket in absolute disgust.
Jagielka has been very hot and cold all season. Is in form now but a few months go over the Christmas period he was terrible, as both a player and a captain.
Barry seems to aged 20 years from last season. Legs are going and is now just a hindrance in most games because he gives away too many free-kicks and his distribution is chronically slow.
Coleman and Baines have both dipped below the standards expected of them this season. They haven't been terrible but they've had too many many bad games between where a lot of people wouldn't mind seeing Coleman sold for a good offer and Baines phased out for Garbutt.
You can have your Secretary of Defense back, no one over this side of the pond can stand the sight of him anymore.
