The Shelvey conundrum on 19:26 - Dec 14 with 4557 views | Jackfath | He made a darting run at one point. Ki didn't pick him out. We lost the ball. Did he break his balls to get back to try to win it? No, he walked, and I mean walked back. Switches off too often I am afraid. If he could get himself to concentrate on what's what he'd be a super player. | |

The Shelvey conundrum on 19:35 - Dec 14 with 4497 views | icecoldjack | Fair points but surely most of us know that Shelvey is an asset further forward not deep laying? Jonjo can play every week if Ki or leon sits deep, we all know he doesn't have the self control to play that position, not many do in fairness! Its why i didnt quite understand leon going off after 55 mins, surely it would have been better for jonjo to start and leon come on to control things later on? or if leon was fit to start then maybe he should have stayed on longer ? I do begin to wonder if Monk is putting on the likes of Gomis and Shelvey to try and keep them happy as opposed to winning us a game of football tactically. It made no sense to sub our best defender in Bony when the game was tight and only 6 mins left, Gomis could not have offered us anything at that point, especially not holding it up or clearing headers, didnt make sense. Is somebody going to write a letter to Garry this week i wonder... | | | |

Oh im not saying he is our problem. I agree our fullbacks are a big part of our defensive lapses. This thread is just confirming why Shelvey cannot be trusted with a starting berth. As someone said, he goes from the sublime to the ridiculous. He just doesn't seem to think... Ever. Or when he does its for 5 mins here and 5 mins there. He is the most frustrating player we have had id say. So talented but so so brainless. | |

The Shelvey conundrum on 19:42 - Dec 14 with 4425 views | Joe_bradshaw | I'm not convinced we have the right balance in midfield when both Ki and Leon play, particularly at home. Neither gets forward enough and Siggy gets crowded out easily. Both players ' natural instinct is to sit back. Ki is trying to get forward more but Leon gets a nosebleed when he crosses the half way line. | |

When all are on their game then our strongest midfield for me is Ki, Shelvey and Sigurdsson. That's not a slight on Leon who has been and always will be a legend (not a term I use lightly) here, but that trio offers more IMO. Ki has been massively impressive so far this season and has done a lot to make me rethink my opinion. Mind you, when Shelvey's off his game almost anyone would be better in there. That's why I'd like to see us add to the midfield. | |
