Pearson - Absolute liability

Pearson - Absolute liability

The blame for the booking lies solely with BP, who, in my opinion, has become a total liability. The ref was very clear as to where he wanted the free kick taken from, but BP thought he could push his luck as he obviously knows best!!! Once he’d been booked he was less than effective and was almost non-existent in the 2nd half.

Why would we pick a player who’s a liability? Are you suggesting we’d be better playing with ten men?

Ridiculous booking, but nobody else would have been given one for that.

Exactly how i saw it. Every player attempts to pinch yardage at free kicks, all the ref had to do was say “ive told you once, anymore none sense you’re in the book”. Ref was very hasty to produce a ridiculous yellow card for pearo, yet enda stevens got away without a yellow despite felling Nmecha all game. Go figure.

Always need Gally or DJ in the midfield for me. Pearson / Ledson / Browne is pointless, especially at home.

Agree that midfield trio lacks creativity and guile. I honestly thought Pearo and Ledson worked well together, offered plenty bite and stopped their very good midfield dictating things. Would have been nice to have DJ in front of them over Browne. No slight on Browne but he hasn’t got that creative spark very often, which we desperately needed today.

I think we all know a “Pearson “ - in fact it should be an adjective in the OED.
Every group of lads have a “Pearson “

He’s the one who’s good at what he does , clearly talented , committed , runs through brick walls - good mate - you’d want him in the trenches. Solid.

But there’s another side to our mate Pearson.

He stares at the wrong guys in the pub , parks on double yellow lines , puts peanuts in your craft beer for a laugh , tells the helpful copper to fuck off and sits in first class with no ticket at all. He’d start a fight in a library.

We love him but he really really pisses us off , we think he should find another group , but we d miss him so much.

Arrrgh ! Pearson !
 
Fair point.........but he’d been in the refs face from the start, constantly talking to him........I think the free kick thing was one step (or was it four?) too far.

The booking was comical, but the ref created the situation when he had no need to get involved. The ball was in the right position to start with so there was no need to be so picky about it. Let’s face it, virtually every restart in the game takes place from the wrong position so why he picked on that free kick was bizarre. He was happy to let cynical fouls and timewasting go without a caution.

He was being a little bitch about Robbo's first corner too.

You obviously didn't go to the match. As always, almost without exception, he is our best player and was influential in everything that happened in the second half!
 
I did go to the match and no, he wasn’t (my opinion) influential in everything we did as he had a proper sulk on second half!!

Why would I say we should play with 10 men????
No goals, no assists, 14 yellows and 2 reds and some think he’s not a liability!!

You said he was a liability so by definition we’d be better off without him. Do you know what ‘liability’ means?

Take it you didn't go to Millwall because if you did you wouldn't be saying that sentence.

He does slow us down going forward at home in my opinion. He is not perfect and needs to improve this side of his game. I agree he is more effective away from home.

I don’t hang around with anyone like that. Apart from the peanuts in the beer guy.

It’s the comments about Pearson only getting booked because it’s him that make me laugh. That particular monster was created long ago. There’s an old thread in which some of the wiser posters on here warned against him developing precisely the sort of reputation that he has now acquired.

Indulging his petulance did him no favours.
