how can a player who played for a newcastle side (they weren't that bad at the time) in the prem, cost us about 1.5mill and then played for us in the prem be so pathetically bad. that was a laughable performance today, and call me synical but part of me thinks he faked that injury just to get off the pitch, not that anyone was complaining.
please please please no new contract !!!

As for his performance people got on his back after one mistake i see plenty of others make mistakes and did not get as much grief as Shazza
He HOWEVER he plays has become a scapegoat
Butterfoot had a blinder were is the thread about that Twat ????????????????????
get of his back ok no the greatest but we do have far worse
Completely Agree!
so there :P
It's all opinion Talal
Today was such a nothing game
but Arose was no worse than 4 or 5 others
Preston being in play off contention says a lot about the lack of quality in this league
:D
He then made a mistake, groans reverberated around the ground and he reverted to the aimless mincing around with the occasional disappearance that we've come to know and not love.
Otherwise lily livered AFKABartram would've pulled Talal's blasphemous opinion an hour ago.
The same goes for all the threads slagging Butterfield, Parkinson, Burton etc etc.
Just stick to these soft targets and you can say what you like, but diss Jonjo and you'll be in HOT WATER!

Laura Angel you'll get your way and our one truly gifted footballer will be gone. If you can't see how Jonjo is three or four moves ahead of everyone else, like some chess master, anticipating and running into positions to be available, then I feel sorry that you are missing out on the brief pleasure of watching him perform.
But isn't she saying NOT to criticize him?
I suspect that may well be the final time we see him in a Charlton shirt. He's been a very frustrating player to watch, but hopefully he'll also be remembered for some of his better performances (and point and match winning goals after having done nothing all game!), as much as the 45 minutes today.
The goal against Man Utd when Benty played it back to him and Ipswich last season were his finest moments in my opinion.
doing it to jonjo is worse because he's so young, he's had a lot fewer opportunities to impress and we're all so desperate to see him at the valley for years to come. But i don't see how people can slag off criticism of jonjo so heavily but think nothing of some of the stuff ambrose has been getting for years.
it's a shame ambrose didn't work out for us like it might have done, but i genuinely wish him well.
I 100% agree and spookily that is exactly what I said to Covered End Junior this afternoon.
I still think there's a good player in there somewhere but, if things don't go his way, he hides and doesn't want the ball. A couple of times yesterday he made an early pass when he'd have been better off holding it up or going himself-i don't put it down to lack of ability, just lack of confidence. It's a shame but he's played the best part of 100 games for us and never really come good; I think it's best for all if he is released in the summer.
Also Ambrose is not a wide player. he's always looked better in the hole or upfront ie v Ipswich last season. Also worth remembering him v West Ham in the 4 - 0 Cracking first goal.
His scoring record isn't that bad or the number of his assists but he's not really cut out for a struggling Div 2 side as he is not a physical player and doesn't have real pace.
He's 24 now and it will be an interesting summer. Ipswich said no to him. Maybe on a free transfer someone will take him but he has slid a long way from his u21 days.

Er, Ambrose not a wide player Henry. You sure!!!! Dunno if it's me but hasn't Ambrose always played out wide for us?
No, not always. As I said against Ipswich at home last season he played behind Big Chris and he played upfront for us with both Bents and for England U21s. He looks more effective in the middle IMHO.
yes he has been played out wide far more often - by a number of managers - but IMHO that isn't his best position and is why he is so often ineffective there.
