Didnt he get an assist against Gillingham?[/quote]
The exception that proves the rule! He's still a talented player who contributes very little imo

Certainly not the player we thought he was. As I've said, the 4-5-1 this time last year covered up his weaknesses, he had 3 hard working players around him in Shelvey, Bailey and Zheng and a 4th in Sam who does his fair share of defending. They were a decent passing midfield and that suited him. In a 4-4-2 he's surely not a great deal more solid defensively than Shelvey would be.
Solly on (for Richardson??) Edit: Borrowdale, tired I assume?
[cite]Posted By: Mike_CAFC[/cite]Racon puzzles me, when he came back last season he was quality, i am not quite sure why this hasn't been repeated in this league.

Fair enough, its a shame he doesnt show his best form more often. Solly on for Borrowdale.

There are only two in central midfield. I think Semedo does quite well in defensive midfield. I don't think Racon currently works creatively. For example how many times has his name been mentioned in this game?
We have an attack, peters out it seems, chat chat chat, dunno whats happening, Akpo lined up to come on, they have an attacking throw, sam S heads it away, and we get a deep throw.
Sodje on for Forster. Not a surprise as it sounds like he hasn't played much for Brighton recently but it seems he's been more threatening than Mooney today so a bit of a shame.
They attack and win a corner, dange here I fear, solly clears, and Jose, but town come again, still pressure, but we clear, Reid attacks but we give it away for their goal kick.
More pressure against us, Solly fouls and a dangerous FK to them. Randolph good save, they come again, and racon brings it forward, but now their throw.

He looked good in a 5 man midfield.
