Pienaar's distribution

[bourneblue]

Three times in succession he gave the ball away in the closing minutes ,all his craft and hard work counts for nothing if he cannot pass to a player in a blue shirt.winds me up he does.

Knee-jerk me thinks. Its the whole team's mentality at the end, not just one players maverick craziness.

 

[Neiler]

I thought he was brilliant in the second half.

 

[Namdrater]

I thought lots of our players looked tired at the end

 

[bourneblue]

As i said he gives the ball away too often final minute you need to keep possession,if it was an isolated incident then fair enough,but it's not we've seen it on countless occasions this season.winds me up no end. Ffs that was an important game tonight a chance to close the gap to 2 points and he goes and does that.

Its been off since the Middlesborough (i think it was that game anyway) draw where he had one of the worst displays i've seen from an Everton player in regards to passing.

When he plays well he is great and his passing is superb. Yet more and more these days he makes the kind of pass that makes Hibbert look like Arteta.

I guess now Yakubu is out we need someone else to needlessly give the ball away in vital areas/at vital times to concede dodgy goals!

**** me, so Pienaar is going to be the scapegoat. Hang on, I'll go and get him and we can all abuse him and his kin.

My god.

Not Pienaar's fault. You should ask where the hell was Hibbert.

Did you see the game?

i thought he and the rest of the team played great.

but he pissed about and lost us the ball too many times in extra time.

with a player of fellaini's size and with a minute and a half to go , why not wip in the corner ? if you score , bonus , if you miss atleast it wastes time.

any hard work done by pienaar was deemed worthless by his play in the last 3.

it was a great night at goodison till then.
but when the dust settles i will still be happy with not losing.

His passing really is disgusting. I was going to post a similar thread but thought it would be interpreted as a knee jerk reaction, but to be fair I have been mentioning it since Chelsea - when his passing was literally the worst I have ever seen from a professional footballer.

But hey, hes pacey, has dreadlocks, looks flair, can cross a ball... but ask him to pass the ball 5/6 yards and he's pathetic.

Most definitely needs to improve his passing. Without a doubt. Maybe he needs a break? Drop him for Gosling?

 

[chicoazul]

He's boss. Not tonight like but normally he's boss.

Boo that Cahill instead.

 

[bourneblue]

He has single handedly undone what was a fine team performance ,i really do hope moyes kicks his arse.His distribution is awful, and has been for some time.

Agree.

He does definitely have some good atrributes. Decent work rate, pace, eager to keep hold of the ball, can no doubt cross the ball very well. But concentration wise (Man Utd last minute foolish pen at Old Trafford a prime example) and passing, he is absolutely last.

Yes Ghost I watched the game and I could see hibbert way out of it trotting back as there tawt was running after the ball to score. Now Hibbert is the RB I believe so why was not back there covering.
