Dawson is awesome.

[CowInAComa]

Probably not the time for bigging anyone up. But Ive said it before and I'll say it again, I fucking love Daws.

Would have loved to see him lift the trophy and for that alone I am glad we gave it a proper go and took the Europa League seriously. You just know he is as gutted as us.

Yeh im sure Ade won't sleep tonight either.

In ET maybe, but he had a dreadful 90 minutes, which culminated in him being responsible for Vertonghen's red card

I reckon Vertonghen was ultimatley responsible for Vertonghens red card.

 

[EnfieldYiddo]

No he's not. He's got a good die hard attitude.

He constantly gives possession away through pointless long balls and makes rash challenge after rash challenge.

I would say blocking is the strongest part of his game.

Weak points being his pace, lack of 1v1 awareness, positioning, decision making.

If the Spurs first 11 was picked on personalities he would be the first in my team.

 

[SoulDog]

How many times did he come flying in and miss time his challenge and get caught outta position?

Sorry but totally disagree. Plenty of blocks. Won his headers and led by example. Jan can only blame himself for a silly tackle.

Had dawson not tried to control a slippery ball in the 91st minute, in the pouring rain, and instead just headered it up the pitch, Verts would never have been put into an impossible situation

Dunno you tell us

 

[SoulDog]

at least 6?

 

[mpickard2087]

Looked shaky throughout the normal 90 mins and dived in everywhere, plus his error led to the red card scenario.

What the fuck? He made a very poor decision irrespective of what went on before that. Please dont try and suggest he had no other option.

You can keep that going forever but you must agree there is a scenario possible where Dawson could make that error and then Verts cleanly tackle the striker hence otherwise Dawson would of got the red card if he was responsible.

 

[absolute bobbins]

It's weird but as gutted as I am that we are out, seeing Daws close to tears at the end made me feel worse for him!

I'm so thankful that he is still here

Elaborate.

What other option did Verts have?

 

[SoulDog]

Maybe we would of won that game if we had a good CB, Dawson is a good hardworking player who clearly cares for the club but he is NOT good footballer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Teddy Klinsmann]

Deserves to captain #thfc at a Wembley cup final some day. Give me 1 Dawson over 11 Adebayors.

He tried to pinch the ball, it was a fair way out and that guy had little or no pace, verts could have tracked him back. He made a wrong decision imo

Fuck me, a team of Dawsons.....
