Leon Osman

[GrandOldTeam]

Opinions?

Have liked the lad in the past.

This season though, I think hes been an embarrassment. And thats putting it nicely.

Offers nothing. He needs to be dropped for Gosling.

Utter, utter dogwank today.

Glad you said it and not me. I thought he was a disgrace today, and he needs to think about his performance in the middle because it was poor.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

I would say he has been pathetic all season like.

Passenger, does [Poor language removed] all.

He needs to be dropped for a few games.

He really is a disgrace. I've had enough off him. Unless he gets a grip, he should be off before even Castillo.

 

[Dom1878]

He rarely offers anything.

 

[kenada_blue]

HES NOT A WINGER!!!!!!!!!

The last time he probably played in the centre of the park was away at West Brom I think and he banged one in.

Moyes should really play him in his preffered position being Cahill was out.

He's not past it, he's just not good on the wing, hasnt been whenever he's played out there for seasons now.

 

[Dom1878]

He wont be dropped. Moyes is blind to the players he loves.

Exactly.

If he was foreign - fans would be up in arms. Lazy this, lazy that. No passion etc.

I think Osman falls under the category of "if we had the money, we would sign a replacement".

For instance if we had Moutinho, Osman would get nowhere.

Its also worth noting that Pienaar has also been woeful.

Did none of you see the game where he came on for the inured Hibbert? Before he came on it was all hoof...

 

[harry]

When he plays on the wing he doesn't seem to read the game, he gets caught on his heels alot and looses possession all the time.
I wonder if it is the fact that in the middle he is always involved but on the wing he looses concentration as he isn't involved as much.

 

[Dom1878]

Ok Osman...

...In the center he is acceptable - problem is Arteta, Cahill, Fellaini etc...are better than him in that position.

On the wing he is awful, just awful.

He gives is all, but if it comes to nothing whats the ******* point? He loses the ball alot, when he is fouled he stays down and complains.

The only reason people like him is because of his work rate - and the fact he occasionally scores some great goals.

He should be dropped to the bench. Forever.

 

[everton]

Lazy and no passion? It's not 'cos he's english, it's because he is one of our least lazy and most passionate players. ffs.

As I said in another thread, he's a fashionable McFadden.

 

[ToxtethBlue]

He was very poor, like the rest of our midfield bar Phil Neville.
