Simon Gillett

Are we missing Simon Gillett? No, didn't think so. Time to get rid of this League One player. I've not rated him at all, even in the early months of the season. I liken him to Gary Holt (shivers) - anyone else agree?

No Giddy, Hooijdonk just said no meaning he (his view only) didn't agree with you.

he was great at the start of the season when the whole team generally were playing well, but as soon as things turned sour, he didn't have the physical presence to deal with people running at him.

Giddy - pull your knickers out your crack. You asked if anyone agreed. I said no. Because I don't. Simples.

Simples?? - Taking this merecat advert a tad too far pal.

He's gone off the boil. He's a tidy little player who can link the midfield and defence. But at times under SoD and AM he seemed to be at the centre of what was going wrong. When we were constantly trying to pass, pass, pass and get nowhere and then the opposition hit it up the other end and score. He is not creative in anyway whatsoever and he also doesn't put very many tackles in. I think he's a better alternative than the pedestrian Greening and possibly better than the inconsistent Moussi who has never impressed me. If Geddy is injured then I'd play Cohen there ahead of both Moussi and Gillet.

Gillet was rarely bad in a defensive role. The issue was he was rarely fantastic enough to make up for his inability to attack. In the modern age of football defensive players have to be just as versed in attacking.

Geddy in the CDM role has been fantastic as both a defensive outfit and an attacking outlet. Gillet could never take part in the attack moves geddy can and his utilization by billy is probably one of the biggest driving changes to the team.
