    He made Bangura look good tonight. Never won a ball against him the entire match.

    I thought Eve was horrendous tonight but to be honest he isn't a Centre half as he plays Right back for Nigeria and played in Midfield for that FC Ashod mob before he signed for us. He is never going to get a game at Right back for us or in midfield so Lenny should just get rid.

    I would put money on him knocking us out of Europe this year if Lennon does not drop him.

    Although I praised him earlier, I'd still much rather lose Ambrose than Wilson.

    His attributes as a footballer make him a shocking fit as a centre half. Other than his height he is too lax both on and off the ball to ever be disciplined enough to be a first pick defender.

    We shall see how he does partnered with Van Dijk/Mulgrew. Needs to up his game though.

    EDIT: Forgot about Mouyokolo

    Use him either right back or Centre mid or sell him * hopeless at centre back.

    Needs to be pushed to midfield and given a shot there.. we will be torn to shreds in the playoff the way things stand.

    He could do very well there, he is a terrific athlete, and can beat a player.

    So is Ambrose the new scapegoat now?

    Can we open a Vbookie on him winning player of the season? :icon_mrgreen:

    Bangura just bullied him tonight was brutal to watch. I'll say again would like to see him deployed in midfield as of now.

    Nope. People can see that he's just not that very good. he is going to cost us games this season with his sheer * "wont learn from his mistakes" attitude. really dont know what Lennon sees in him.

    Kyogo. A phenomenon
    No scapegoat jibes - he's just nae a CB. Combining that fact with no Wilson, and NL has a massive problem ahead of Q3 for CL.

    More acronyms please?

    Seriously though, it's a big concern. Van Dijk needs time.....Ambrose is as much of a CB as I am a 12 inch * star (in at only 11 :() so we have big problems to consider.

    It REALLY annoyed me that Ambrose was 9/10 times the man that was marking Bangura, not once did he win an aerial battle against him.

    Yet I remember Kelvin Wilson twice (probably the only 2 occasions he went against Bangura for the ball in the air) easily winning it.

    The worst thing about it is that ambrose for the most part was getting a running jump facing the ball where as bangura for every long ball was back to goal near enough standing jumps and still ambrose was heading fresh air..

    He deffo won't have a sore head tonight!

    Ambrose-what a nightmare

    What do you guys think of efe ambrose? personally he is a total nightmare he looks dodgy in possession and the amount of times lstig and wilson bail him out is unreal i really dont know what lennon sees in him fair enough he has his good moments but most are bad in my opinion he is not good enough to be at our beloved club HH :)
