Aly Cissokho

[Pablo]

yesterday, he wasn't far off Paul Konchesky's level and that is saying something...at one point in the second half, running forward with the ball, under no real pressure, he virtually tackled himself and nearly fell over.

i've no issues with the signing - we needed decent left back cover, but don't have millions to spend, he was available on loan and has played at a decent level previously, so it was a no brainer for me on loan.

but it's not worked and it's clear we are desperate for a left back so get one asap. Let cissokho go back in the summer.

I remember that , he does that virtually every game. I've never seen a player with poorer balance than him, he's all over the place.

[PTP]

that is indeed what we got to! for someone who has been worth 15m+ and has been courted by some top clubs over the years his regression is remarkable as I dont see any positives in his play at all.

yeah it is bizarre. There is nothing in his play to suggest hes been at some point a top player

i didn't know whether to laugh or cry at that point

He is nothing short of useless and he looks like if you asked him to add 1 + 1 together he would struggle. Stupid loan signing and a waste if money.

our scouting committee must have watched the same youtube compilations as i did before we signed him

I'd rather recall Jack Robinson and send Aly back to Valencia

How far off is Enrique?

Who cares? he's **** as well but luckily we have Flanagan who is more than capable of making that spot his own.

[Lee]

Ah Enrique isn't that bad.

Not the smartest of players and pretty frustrating going forward, but he's defensively solid enough.

But I agree, we do need to look at both fullback positions sooner rather than later.

Enrique started the season very well. He cops alot more flak than is warranted. Short memories...

[Montana]

Enrique is a decent left back, way better than Cissokho.

Lets hope Flanagan continues his form when he returns and make it his position. Hopefully back for the derby.

Not a short memory on my part, I just don't rate him. Any defender that decides it better parking his arse in the way rather than actually dealing with the ball is no good for me.

[baitman]

before enrique was last out he was pretty poor. he came back strong and looked like the player we all wanted, but soon faded away.

[rudedog]

At least Enrique has good days and bad days - Cissokho just seems to have days where he gets away with it and days when he doesn't.

[Fernandinho]

Even my mum can tell that this guy is bloody ****. Desperately poor in possession.

[Fosterbloke]

Even my mum can tell that this guy is bloody ****. Desperately poor in possession.

Ergo, your mum is better than Rodgers.

[Mike]

He was a near force of nature whenever I saw him for Porto. A real buccaneering full back. Incredible that this is the same player.

Remember seeing him at Lyon when he first came onto the scene - looked unstoppable at times.

I remember before we bought Enrique; at the time I wanted us to get Cissokho as did a few others, what do I know?
