Note: not a knee jerk reaction - What I'm about to say is the way I've felt for over a year now.
Pascal Chimbonda. Will you please get out of our club. Martin, for God's sake stop playing him! He adds nothing. Nothing! He is one of the most overrated players I have ever had the misfortune to lay my eyes on. I just hope to Hell that others start to see that too.
Michael Dawson. I've never rated Dawson anywhere near as much as others do on this board, but unlike Pascal, who I would be quite happy to see the leave club for nothing, I'd want to keep Daws at the club, loaning him out to a Prem team for the season, while we bring in someone like Ryan Nelson or Richard Dunne. We need experience at the back! Daws has the talent (I think), but he's simply not up to the standard required now. He gets minimal stick on here because of his character, which although is very endearing, doesn't excuse his defencive frailties.
There are others who from tonight's showing don't deserve to wear the shirt, but that would be knee jerk, so I'll keep that to myself.
