Well one person was addressing me directly so I replied. But mostly it's because the "I told you so" crowd on here are a problem that needs someone to tell them to knock it the fuck off.

Haha you horrible cunt you were wrong again haha!!!
Seriously though, Dazby's right - you only had a issue with him for one game as far as I can remember. Its the usual three that refuse to let it lie, so much so that they actually either get annoyed or disappear when he has ANOTHER very good performance... you should leave it up to one of them to defend this stance so strongly... although NQDP is the only one who actually addresses the situation when its put to him... we all know the other two are here only to wind people up anyway..
Its a bit sad.... or as Kevin Bishop's toffs would say
"Its just a little bit annoying"

Some of the attempts to criticise are actually quite silly - watching replays of goals scored against us just in case he was within 10 yards - in which case claim it was his fault - totally ignoring who should have been marking - now that is a pathetic effort

But, he's right. If you watch the goal again it's clear that we didn't have someone covering the space for a knockdown. Once the ball came into that area there was a lot of time for a shot with no one able to clear the danger.
de Jong would be the natural person to be in that space. I can't really comment further because maybe it was, in fact, someone else's job and the problem lay elsewhere (player and/or coach).
Whatever about the debate over him, it's churlish to disallow critical analysis of the game (backed using video evidence instead of hazy drunken recollection*) on the basis that we'd be bringing facts into an argument about who the strongest players on the team are.
If it was his mistake it doesn't necessarily invalidate assertions that he played well.
*in general. I'm not disputing your recollection of the game.

we should provide an empty room for people to start fights in on here. I think it would go down a storm

I'm still fucking pissed off about our derby loss and De Jong's performance on that game.
Great to hear that derby loss makes you giggle.
