Because despite the rest of the outfield players being horrifically bad... He clearly stood out as the worst Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He clearly stood out as the worst Did he, really? Maouche and Branger were terrible. Sefil too. Nepo, Stott, Hamer are players I like but were poor by their usual standards. Eagles did nothing. Smith Brown was a bit meh. Wilson shite. Azankpo did fuck all but I don't mind that - I think he's an "all he does is score" type which some of you will hate but will be fine by me. Mills was good. Woods seemed ok but we've become used to keepers who save penalties... Actually thinking back Vera probably did more than anyone bar Mills in those first 15 minutes after which he was as poor as his mates for the rest of his time on the pitch..

I didn't go yesterday, but I doubt the assessment is based on just the one game... As has been said elsewhere, it's like he's won a competition.

I agree with you that the majority of the team were poor yesterday. Assuming he wasn't injured, of course, the fact that Vera did not appear for the second half might indicate that the coach/whoever else has a say thought he was particularly poor too?

Actually thinking back Vera probably did more than anyone bar Mills in those first 15 minutes after which he was as poor as his mates for the rest of his time on the pitch.. i would like to see eagles given more game time than yesterday and he didnt really get into the game , Correct with Vera, the goal came from Vera winning the ball near half way line as it was him winning the ball and spraying it wide , but he yes disappeared from the game after 20 mins or so(will not mention the header). I also would like to see Wheater and Sott together at the back but how long that would last for not sure because Tomos will probably go straight in when fit Yes Woods played well but the save he pulled you expect a decent keeper to be pulling them stops off No idea why mills got subbed and was he being played out of position? looked like he was.. Anyway roll on Blackburn away from home hopefully get a positve cup result which will set us up nicely for Bradford away who havent started to good either, there for the taking i believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you been drinking, Vera was a laughing stock of a player, he can’t run, can’t pass, cant shoot, can’t head or trap the proverbial. if he plays again then there is something seriously wrong. it Is going to be a long bloody season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vera is shit but Branger yesterday was more shit than Vera. The only players to emerge with anything other than a totally shit rating were Woods,Mills and Hamer for me, which kind of backs up my suggestion that there are 50 shades of shit at BP just now,yes Vera shouldn't be turning out for Oldham Athletic but neither should many others who kindly entertained us yesterday. This is the worst Latics team i have ever seen but if i want to defend the Pinata wearing the 9 shirt i will do,at least he made me laugh and smile temporarily yesterday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
