The Johnny 'Colossus' Heitinga Appreciation Thread

that's odd, surely he should have rested started heitinga if he's cup tied and rested hibbert.

We've only played 6 games, why does he need resting?

hibbert's banned for his red card against Sigma

Hid a bit in all honestly. Too early to make any assertions though.

Fingers crossed, although I am a bit concerned by A.Madrid being keen to move him on so quickly...

I had the same thought about Dortmund binning Pienaar so quickly

I didn't, Pienaar was signed as Rosicky replacement.

Pienaar was also initially brought in on loan

Didnt Atletico get rid of Heitinga behind the managers back? He didnt want his regular right back to go.

Now there's proper meeeeeeeeeeeerder at Atletico.

We've finally found a replacement for phil.
I never expect him to be that good in defensive midfield. His work rate, aggression, vision and passing were impressive.

Phil is merely filling the gap while we find a replacement for Carsley

 

[Axlswhk]

then we've found carsley replacement

Johnny is a fecking legend already for me.

 

[Seamus Colemole]

Yeah good game from him today.

His long passes are sublime sometimes. And nice to see him putting tackles in today in midfield, we've missed that.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Yeah he had a good game today, got stuck in more which is what you need from players in those positions. Hope he keeps it up.

 

[chicoazul]

Strong and moved the ball around well.

I hope as he finds his feet he'll start putting in back to back decent performances as he has the ability to have me screaming next game.

Played well today.

 

[Axlswhk]

add some pace and tenacity and he'll be as good as edgar davids.

He is quite tenacious mate/slams into challenges like a mad man.

With decent finishing, Marcus Bent could have been Darren Bent.

with lipstick we can turn pittbull to a hockey mum.
