Honestly, he played well today and was decent against Palace.

He's been bloody awful for us some times, and if everyone else is fit and in form, then he shouldn't be a regular starter, but if he hadn't been signed by Martinez, was dog ugly as opposed to being a bit of a pretty boy, didn't have a drop dead gorgeous missus and wasn't paid a fortune for kicking a ball about then I don't think we'd see quite so much obvious jealousy.

If he plays against Burnley and is poor then I'll be in this thread saying so, but I'm not going to sl@g him off when he's played well just become some biffs* on the internet think it's trendy to do so.


*I'm not totally sure what a biff is, but I like the sound of it so I'm going to start using it.

Is right

I didn't notice him yesterday. Made one decent block I guess but honesty I didn't see him in the game. I would think that's more worrying than encouraging.
 

Agree he may in Koeman's eyes 'earned' himself a starting place, it just comes across as Negative playing 3 holding midfielders IMO though.

Barkley in his current form would have cost us unfortunately I think Lou.

Do think it was a toss-up for Ron and he went with the more pragmatic approach, and I have no issue with it - Clevs did fine.

I'd like to think Barkley (or Kev, even) will be back in for Burnley though.

Had no problem with Cleverley starting against City mate, my "negative playing 3 holding midfielders" wasn't really about Koeman starting him against City, it was aimed more at it being negative if he started against Burnley.
 
Cleverley could go missing in a Padlocked room on his own.

I have never known a player to play CM and you don't even know he's playing.
