Tell that to Holmann(sp?) who had many free runs at our defence last night. Song was average at best. Not doing his job effectively in terms of screening the back 4 and vacates the space far too often.
As I've said a billion times, on the ball Song is doing pretty well (though was sloppy last night) but off the ball leaves alot to be desired.
How hard is it to sit deep when we are protecting a lead. Very annoying and will cost us later unless we are more compact as a unit. Denilson, return soon!
song's doing decently, but he does everything far too slow. he holds on to the ball too long and he isn't quick enough off the ball. as a result for instance, he seems to always be under pressure when receiving the ball in central midfield. if you compare him (unfairly of course) to cesc, rosicky, nasri, arshavin etc the difference is staggering. they, unlike song, look like they have plenty of time on the ball.
unless he can become more agressive, more mobile and sharpen his passing, i don't think he has a future at dm for us.
