Get Egan out. Get a new CB in January

[Pittsburg Blade]

You couldn't be more wrong if you were sat on a school bus wearing only your mum's knickers wanking into a copy of Caravan Weekly...

And what’s wrong with that exactly…?

 

[Tarqs]

Absolute tosh

 

[wizadry]

I’m not sure we have £20M to replace him?

 

[Tarqs]

Hes the one player tasked with progressing the ball from the keeper..

Fucking grow up

 

[RWE]

I’ll ask you then. When was the last time we conceded from a direct ball over the top of Egan?

Norwich 2 months ago, Puuki goal. Everyone knows that’s his weakness… question to you would be do you think he’s good enough for the premier league if we go up?

Thought we preferred our grandad's knickers around these parts, black cammy ones unall!

 

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

He has a mistake in him but I still think he's quality. He's the least of our worries.

Very few of our players are good enough for a long stint in the Premier League, it's why they're Championship players...

[Stretch]

I disagree. He is still one of the best CBs in the division, but like all players he has the odd mistake in him, which for some reason gets jumped upon by some as if it is the end of the world.

If we do go up, I expect us to buy 2 more CBs anyway, but if he is put in the shop window, I guarantee that there would be plenty of teams queuing up to buy him, and the West Ham rumours in the summer had genuine substance.

As the old saying goes, you don't know what you've got...etc etc..

 

[Benitachel]

I like Egan. He is a bit slow sometimes but he puts in such a good shift and his goal at the end made a draw feel like a win. U TB

 

[Bell4]

Ffs

If our problem is Egan

We ain’t got problems

….. start looking at that 6ft 3 - 23m midfielder who contributes almost nothing and is as weak as piss

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

 

[Tarqs]

He makes the odd mistake because he's the one player that has all the risks placed upon his shoulders.

Note world class players like rodri and cancelo also make similar mistakes.

It’s only opinions at the end of the day. Never want a player to play poorly… always want us to improve and for me personally it’s somewhere where I’d like us to upgrade for the PREM.

 

[robbiez666]

Can we swap some of our fans for bags of mince in January. The mince would be more intelligent.

The 2nd goal for Norwich? That was Anel who was caught over the top.

We aren’t currently in the Premier League. You agreed with someone who said we should get rid of him now.

 

[sitwell]

And people say Warnock talks shit.

 

[Captain2]

I don’t rate Egan. I think he’s overrated as people see him as one of our leaders and he “pieces” the backline together with him being in the middle. Tonight showed it again, whether he scored or not, another fucking stupid mistake. I also believe he’s prone to many of the over the top balls that teams play over our defence.

Can someone relate? Or totally disagree? This is my opinion and I stand by it. Egan has done fantastically well for us at Sheffield untied but I just feel like it’s time to UPGRADE in the central defender position. Not hating, just stating my opinion.

Thoughts Blades fans?

Rubbish!
First name on team sheet, leader!

Its amazing the amount of fans that blame egan for that....

 

[SB_90]

absolutely rubbish, yeah lets get rid of a Centre back that walks in to every championship defence

Just looked again and I genuinely thought that was Egan so that’s my bad. I didn’t say I agreed with that part at all. I literally put fine for the championship not the prem… I’m also pointing out that since we’ve signed him we’ve never had any genuine player pushing for his spot and for me that can lead to sloppy mistakes. Whether they’re costly or not.

 

[Houston_Blade]

Hecky was right at the end, he said he’d be more worried if players weren’t wanting the ball. Egan is the short pass from Wes so puts himself in the firing line. It would be easy to just run off and be a proper ‘kick it, head it, tackle’ centre half for another team. But he’s not, he’s decent.

The ‘sloppy mistakes’ are few and far between though. The mistakes he does make are the same as the other players, it’s just more visible from Egan’s position. A bit like when a Keeper makes a mistake. The idea that he’s susceptible to the ball over the top isn’t anywhere near as bad as suggested on here. Why is why you can’t even remember when such a situation lead to us conceding*

The fact is our record with him in defence has been excellent, he’s a leader on the pitch and it would cost a whole lot of money to replace him.

*and the only example you could think of was actually Anel, who doesn’t get the same accusations and only really gets positive comments on here.

Fair enough comments and I can appreciate your opinion. Just how I see the game which I’m sure we all see different to eachother.

I think you needed to provide the name of a better central defender and leader who we can realistically acquire in January before posting this.

Gonna have to disagree on most of that mate but your totally entitled to your opinion. I do think that we're gonna have to upgrade tho if we do get promoted not just Egan either but 80% of the squad.

I think you’re wrong and he’s our most important defender personally.

 

[Camden Blade]

We're going to concede goals and defenders are going to make mistakes. That's football. But to go from that to say replace Egan is stupid. How often is he injured? Look at his consistency, he never hides or shirks. First name on the team sheet for me. Why would you start messing about with a team lying in second place in January by looking to sell one of your key players? Nuts.
