We all know Cristiano Ronaldo was the biggest plum of the weekend...but who showed themselves up on the field rather than off it? Ronaldo threw his toys out of the pram and spat his dummy out all at the same time when he was substituted on Sunday. Someone should tell him that it could have been worse.....he could have found himself in here. Using the ratings dished out by all our reporters over the weekend, here is the setanta.com worst XI. Don’t be shy in letting us know whether you agree or disagree – that’s what the form at the foot of the page is there for. Goalkeeper: David James – Portsmouth Manuel Almunia must have chuckled off to sleep on Saturday night after seeing England’s current incumbent do his laughable impression of a reliable keeper. He’s not. Morten Gamst Pedersen will testify to that. Right Back: Bacary Sagna – Arsenal The man just could not cross until he set up Bendtner's goal. A full back can just about get away with such a deficiency when he’s looking good at the back but, unfortunately for Sagna, looking defensively sound for Arsenal is about as easy as trying to convince Arsene Wenger that you don’t win anything with kids. Centre Back: Jonas Olsson – West Brom Poor old West Brom. They won 3-1 at the weekend but still find themselves with two defenders in the team that nobody wants to make. It might be akin to extolling the virtues of avian flu in comparison to its more dangerous bedfellow swine flu, but Olsson has in fact been one of The Baggies’ better performers this year. Not against Wigan. Centre Back: Mikael Silvestre – Arsenal Great signing this has turned out to be. I heard an Arsenal fan – albeit in a whisper – saying that he would rather have a certain Philippe Senderos than Silvestre at the back. That is a more damning indictment than we could ever wish to give. Left Back: Marek Cech – West Brom It was Cech’s big chance to prove Tony Mowbray wrong for persisting with Paul Robinson on the left of his oh-so leaky defence. Unfortunately he blew it. The man is, by his own admission, in the midst of ‘the worst season of his career’. It got a little worse on Saturday. Right Midfield: Glen Johnson – Portmouth Sometimes looks like the most natural right-sided midfielder in the world but sometimes looks like a little boy lost. Portsmouth made Chelsea’s effort at Camp Nou look positively gung-ho in the manner that they set up at Ewood Park so Johnson was never likely to be on to a winner. So it proved. Centre Midfield: Radoslav Kovac – West Ham Like most of his team-mates, Liverpool simply passed him by on Saturday. Javier Mascherano set the tempo, Steven Gerrard ramped it up some more and Kovac and co. chased some shadows. Centre Midfield: Abou Diaby – Arsenal Oh deer....It’s looking ever more unlikely to be a happy end to Bambi’s time at Arsenal. Sometimes looks like Zinedine Zidane but, perhaps more tellingly, more often looks like a Disney character. Left Midfield: Nadir Belhadj – Portsmouth Anonymous, nowhere to be seen and all the rest. He was hauled off by Paul Hart after 53 minutes which was approximately 52 minutes too late. Striker: Felipe Caicedo – Manchester City It takes real skill to be this big but this anonymous. Striker: David Di Michele – West Ham He wants to stay at West Ham...of that we can all be sure after his umpteenth reiteration. I’ve always wanted to play alongside Gabriel Batistuta but I’m not quite good enough. Mr Di Michele should start familiarising himself with that feeling. |
