Downing has been 100% Garbage. At least Adam and Carroll have shown some flashes here and there. Downing has been our worst regular player by far and away.

lets be fair he has shown flashes but disappears quicker than Mr Benn in nearly all the games. I was probably expecting him to be the biggest success being a regular prem player, england caps, dedicated pro and possess some decent quality. However he has been poor and probably the worst of the bunch considering the above.

Never rated him and cannot believe we paid £16+ million for him, he is shocking.

+1. Here's an example of how you can make a criticism fairly. Some people could do with taking note.

Downing has shown glimpses of his talent, and has had some good games for us. Recently in one of the games (think it may have been one of the cup games against United or City) I thought he played excellent both in an attacking sense and a defensive sense. It was one of the best games I've seen him play in a red shirt.

He was dropped then and after getting back into the side in the last game against United, he offered absolutely nothing to the team on the day whatsoever. The think that irked me was him shaking his head and effing and blinding out of him as he came off the pitch. He was taken off cos he did f*cking nothing. Play a great match and get hooked off, then you can be disgruntled. I hate seeing players getting p*ssed off when they're hooked off for playing sh*t.

maybe he was shaking his head because he was disappointed in himself? i doubt he thought he was playing like messi and was [oops] for being subbed.

It certainly didn't look that way, it looked like he was p*ssed off at being taken off.

He could be our back up player, we spent the money and we are not getting that back. Might as well get a player who is gonna challenge downing for the first team
