Trouble is Pieters was a basic defencive fullback for a back four who Jones thought rightly or wrongly that he was not the right type of player for his proposed system... don't let your red and white spec's try to glamourise how good he was and how much we miss him...how many times did you see him bungle into the back of a winger,for no other reason but to give away an unessisary free kick resulting in a goal,and costing us vital points .selective memories of what !!! Oh to have a PL quality left back. Bayern are you on a wind up because the is noway anyone can come out with the constant crap you come out with.

Funny how people are slating Jones for getting rid of Pieter's yet when he played this whole board said Pieters was shit..... As a near lone voice in defending pieters for years I have to admit to being surprised by how many people actually liked him on this forum. I seemingly wasn't alone afterall. Pretty sure I agreed with you at the time. Admittedly, nobody was as staunch as you, though.

Good to see Indi back! Hope both him and Batth are back for the Birmingham game too with only two central defenders at the back!

Not playing the way Nathan wants him to play, sometimes they just don't perform in a lower league, its a totally different style of play look at our prem players last season,rabbits in headlights.

Yes, you are right about those facts. However, I’m just basing it on his ability.

I said was good, never was prem quality. I mean he quite clearly was. Pieters is an excellent left back in a straight four across the back, in a 4-2-3-1. Hughes messed him up (and Diouf for that matter) by trying to convert him to a wing back with three at the back. In fact switching to three at the back was the beginning of the end.

I'm glad he came back into the fold tonight, he's a decent player at this level.
I hope he can get himself back into the form we know he's capable of because we need it.

Exactly - he’s been bombed out, come back like a pro, put a shift in and yet some are criticising him for being a bit slow for the second goal. He hasn’t even played what do people expect!
