latics v burnley tonight


Recommended Posts

Reid this pre season is absolutely nowhere near the over weight abject player he was last season. He works more in the first five minutes of games than he did the entire match last season. Last night he even recieved an ovation from the crowd for tracking back and winning the ball. Which he acknowledged with a thumbs up to the crowd. Take off your mind set blinkers and give credit where it's due. I am not saying he's a world beater but defo tried to get fit for his last chance saloon deal.

Smith has also openly said Reid is giving him real support both on and off the pitch. Give Smith and Reid 5 games together and I think we will see the new Porter Warne combo

rubbish! Reid put in a shift tonight and if his judgment off flicks was better then he would get criticized

 

people need to forget last season, in the 2 games Ive seen he's worked hard and seems to have had a change in attitude

 

 

argeed preseasons are mainly to get fitness levels back on track and trying out trailists in match football

I'd much prefer a small fast striker than Reid. Reid never anticipated and of smiths flick ons and was very slow to react

I know I’m going over old ground here but why does the striker have to be small.

 

Are you saying if a striker was big and fast you would turn him away?

know what you mean, if they have the talent and speed then size shouldnt matter. but how many foobtallers can you think of that have genuine pace and are over 6 foot? at the top of the game even theres still midgets like walcott, lennon, defoe etc.

 

i can only think of henry who was tall AND fast, maybe ronaldo
