Well we'll have to agree to disagree then because

They clearly targetted him because they saw it as a potential weakness.

I do not think Ruddy is good enough and am not comfortable with him, particularly when crosses come into our 6 yard box.

That said he's the best we've got and I will of course support him whenever he takes to the pitch.

        I don't think you can say they clearly targeted him by pinging corners into the six yard (NCFC) - jafski, Dec 19, 10:37:41
        
        More by luck than anything else since he kept missing them (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 19, 10:53:11
        
        I'm not saying he's the new Gordon Banks, just that he's fine for us at the moment. (NCFC) - jafski, Dec 19, 10:59:52
        
        Fair enough. I disagree but such is football. As I have said (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 19, 11:06:01
        
        OK mate. No worries. Just think you're being harsh. (n/m) (NCFC) - jafski, Dec 19, 11:08:51

        and ruddy also has a full back at cb (NCFC) - SCC 28, Dec 19, 10:42:37
  - agreed and was a great corner tbf (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Dec 19, 10:25:58
- Surman was not ineffective as Holtamania (NCFC) - loz, Dec 19, 10:23:09
  - Surman was effective at breaking up play. I think a lot of (NCFC) - Pixelman, Dec 19, 10:29:45
  - On Saturday yes Crofts was agreed. But in general Surman does not do enough. (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 19, 10:26:59
    - To be fair to Surman though I think he's a tidy player. Would just rather have Pilks there (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 19, 10:30:01
- All keepers flap from time to time... (NCFC) - Dandy Highburyman, Dec 19, 10:20:14
  - He flaps at probably 50% of the crosses that come into him. (NCFC) - Dog, Dec 19, 10:29:38
    - 100% agreed. (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 19, 10:35:53
  - I agree re the showing him inside point. But still should not be a 40 yard gap to run into (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 19, 10:29:03
  - On those 'flappy' occasions didn't he usually have the sort of attention from Fellaini and (NCFC) - woody, Dec 19, 10:23:30
- Surman (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Dec 19, 10:16:33
  - He's OK and he's rotating the squad too to keep em on their toes - I like that... (NCFC) - Dandy Highburyman, Dec 19, 10:21:31
    - He has been the worst player (n/m) (NCFC) - Larry Hagman, Dec 19, 10:23:53
