Calderwood : Fri Mar 06, 2009 11:18 pm  

What are your honest opinions on this kid? I'm not going to go down the Fox is better road, just wanted to know what you think of him. IMO i thaught he was poor tonight often out of position and looks dodgy under the high ball. When Raynors fit he will go straight back into the team with Briscoe on the other wing. Views

I think he is infinitely better than Fox. He is vastly superior in all areas and is by far and away the best winger ever to grace SL.

Not one of his better games tonight, but he's been fine in the other three. We don't use him properly, though - tonight he didn't get a single decent pass.

Statistics suggest he's doing OK overall.

Don't disagree to be honest.

he passed a dodgey ball in our 20 and luckily the guy cault it with one hand. he can jump for it but when he is half way through the air he forgets were he is, i think he needs to be utalized <-- (spelling) with a kicking game on his wing im not sure if when raynor returns that calderwood may get dropped and keep what we had tonight.

i still think he will improve in the season.

I recall one occasion when Graeme Horne died with the ball on the last out wide. That was to me a perfect opportunity to hack to ball downfield for Calderwood to chase.
Speaking of using players correctly I still think Manu plays too centrally.
