Robert huth isn't the best centre half in the world but he is head and shoulders better than Wilson, the defence at the moment is a shambles, it isn't Wilson's fault he is a squad player who comes in and plays anywhere where asked, I have to say he is a liability and a walking penalty

We need Huth back ASAP, we need Bego back ASAP, Pieters needs a good shake and we need the get the shape back in our defence.
We shouldn't be frightened to put our foot through the ball and get rid. There's no amount if pretty football that can compensate for conceding 14 (fourteen) goals in 4 League games.

The good thing about yesterday is that was the last time you will see wilson at centre half. You could tell from hughes' interview that he was pissed off with some of the defending. We will either have huth back for palace or have a new defender in.

Hughes said the other week Wilson was doing a good job and we didn't need any new defenders in. That was obviously before yesterday's woeful defensive effort.
Since Bego has been out we've been shipping goals, that's no coincidence surely.
Cameron is good going forward and is decent at sticking his foot in to nick the ball away. He's far from what you'd call a solid defender though.
Shawcross simply can't do it all on his own as hard as he might try.
Pieters. Well he's done little to impress me and yesterday was another typical example of why. Ok he's a left back, but is he any good, probably not? He's a poor mans left back.

Spot on ski, Wilson is neither a center half or full back, he was defo at fault for the second and the third, although it wasn't a pen he should have booted it up the field as he was the last man.
Never impressed me where ever he has played, get rid or on the bench at best.
Get fit soon Huthy.

Never impressed me where ever he has played, get rid or on the bench at best. Get fit soon Huthy. when I was growing up, my coach used to say "if in doubt put it out". It seems modern football doesn't include this philosophy. Wilson should have volleyed the first one out the ground. It was a looping ball and it was always going to be difficult heading it back. The second was much the same, he was being pressured and had no outlet. What happened to putting your foot through it?
