Steinsson on the left

Post by bwfc1979 » Sat Jan 22, 2011 3:45 pm

ok this might sound a silly question but has Steinsson ever played on the left for us the reason i'm asking is cause i had a drunken bet with a united fan last night i said he hasnt and he said he has.
would love to prove him wrong if anyone can help me take a tenner off a scummer lol

It's definitely once, against Everton at Goodison. It may have been twice

Everton at Goodison was right-wing, with the might-have-been-a-decent-full-back-back-when-he-could-run Andy O'Brien playing behind him.

I can't remember him ever playing him on the left. I presume injuries would've meant he did at some point. Where did he end up at Sunderland away last year? I remember Chung-Yong-Lee playing right-back, but I don't know where Steinsson was.

It was definitely AOB. He gave away a penalty when Jo dived over his invitingly out-stretched knee and was generally shite throughout the whole of the first half. Mind you, Megson should never have put him there in the first place.

I think that's the worst half of Premier League football I've seen us play in the last four years. However, I bet it won't take long for someone to identify a performance that plumbed even greater depths.

Post-Lisbon Wigan away is the barometer for shit performances from which all shit performances should be measured. Everything about that was woeful, even before you'd got to the Megson masterplan of 'Rest players in the Uefa Cup, beat Wigan on Sunday. Happy days'.

Ooh, now then. Fulham away 2008 was pretty f*cking dire. However, Tom has a good shout with Wigan away. JOB on the wing anyone?

I think asking us to recall that is cruel and unusual posting...

That's the one I was thinking of. Couldn't remember the year - think I had subconciously blocked it out, till now :mrgreen:

Aye, that one was the final straw for me too, but possibly not (quite) the most inept.

I don't think we've ever been desperate enough to even contemplate sticking that donkey on the left

It's Guim down south, etc

That Fulham game was about the worst I've seen since the 80s

But I did get to meet LK for the first time among a few others from on here
