You don't need a PhD in psychology

to understand that the pressure got the better of him. I think it's unfair to judge him by that performance alone.

Of course I agree that it doesn't look good, but I believe in giving people (overpaid footballers or not) more than one chance to prove themselves.

    - You don't need a PhD in psychology (NCFC) - BB_King, Aug 10, 13:12:26
      - we shouldnt be worrying about whether he can handle the pressure (NCFC) - samcd84, Aug 10, 13:29:15
        
        *and ideally he should be experienced in the league he is playing in (n/m) (NCFC) - samcd84, Aug 10, 13:29:40
    - Get this bookmarked. (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 10, 13:08:16
      - i'd be happy to be proven wrong, Marshall at his worst wasn't that bad (n/m) (NCFC) - samcd84, Aug 10, 13:12:47
        
        Going back to the early 80s, I cannot remember a keeper that NEVER had a shocker. (n/m) (NCFC) - Arganth, Aug 10, 13:22:45
        
        I see this as more than a shocker though (n/m) (NCFC) - samcd84, Aug 10, 13:26:57
        
        Why? (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 10, 13:34:18
        
        because we conceded seven at home, and five of those seven.. (NCFC) - samcd84, Aug 10, 13:39:27
        
        All of those 7 would have been dealt (individually) by a better defence. (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 10, 13:57:18
    - The 5th was Nelson's fault. (NCFC) - Arganth, Aug 10, 13:08:12
      - OK fair cop, Nelson could get his own list, (NCFC) - samcd84, Aug 10, 13:11:53
