Soucek haters

[Kidders]

Take a rest

"Our midfield is totally disjointed the way we played yesterday. Guido is anchoring it and dropping between the centrebacks, then Soucek is playing like a lone striker at times leaving Paqueta to not know whether to be an attacker or to hold back and help Guido, they're way too far apart. Nobody hates Soucek, he gives his all and seems like a top bloke, but when the ball comes to him in the middle of the park we either lose momentum cause he slows down the play by a bad touch and slow to move it on or we just lose possession."

"Agree that no one hates him, but let’s be honest if not for the goals what does he bring to the team? Often pretty anonymous fir long periods or passing is sub par."

[Mex Martillo]

"Back in form, it's only 2 games but back to how he was at his best. Whatever is going on, always gives 100%. Such an intelligent player his positioning to score goals is the best in the team, unfortunately not combined with the best shooting in the team. But we can forgive that, can't we?"

"Everything about him has been done to death now, but yea you can some him up by saying that he has to score to justify playing. He won't be leaving anyway, clubs like us, who have predominantly always had shit strikers, can't afford to lose goals from midfield."

[goose]

"It’s almost impossible to hate him because he gives everything, scores important goals and appears to be a genuinely decent fella. However, you cannot ignore his technical limitations. When he’s not scoring, his contribution becomes questionable. Yesterday was bizarre as he seemed to spend the first half playing alongside Antonio."

[Eerie Descent]

"He was absolute pony yesterday, but they are the standards West Ham fans have come to expect over the last few years."

[Huffers]

I don’t think anyone HATES Soucek. He isn’t a good enough central midfielder at this level though. He absolutely HAS to get a goal to equate for his general play. Much like Antonio.
