cfc-meleady 192 Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Essien should stay in DM, in my opinion he wastes more chances than anyone when he goes forward, the odd shot he will get on target and in the net but more than often he just wellies it over the bar. He's better just sitting back and creating the attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I agree but if you're judging that from the Man City game (where he evidently forgot to bring his shooting boots), you have to appreciate he was trying to play the Lampard role and do what Frank does; the problem is no-one can do what Frank does and we need him back asap.

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Once Lampard or Benayoun is back we'll see Essien stop trying to do the long shots. He did it against City because he realised that's the only way we could have a shot, the City defence was too strong for us to try and play our way into a goal, so like BL said he shouldn't be judged on that.

Besides, Essien is one of the best box to box midfielders so it`s a shame if we let him sit back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
