McClean

[Prando]

Was I alone in thinking “oh no” when he came on ?
Yet again costly.

You certainly weren't Prando.
Such a basic thing, stand firm in the wall.
How can he be preferred to Field?

[Albionic68]

Agree that he should have been stronger in the wall, quite a pathetic effort and he really should have stood his ground. That said Ben Foster had lined his wall up and chose against having McClean on the end, presumably fancying his chances of blocking attempts down that side. McClean was only there on Pardew's insistence, on that basis alone I think if we are to play the blame game it should be equally apportioned between James and AP.

So much for his Tough Guy Image.
Yes he gives it 100%, but what exactly is that? Full of energy running around making rash challenges, but his runs produce little end product. Big heart but no football brain
Still we can’t expect much more from a £1.5M player who was in and out of the Wigan team can we.
