for me he's like a cricketer that is an alright batsman, but drops loads of catches

His work off the ball (which, imo is not as good as is often made out) is never going to make up for how poor he is with it.

        in his defence, they did press us very well in the first half, not saying (NCFC) - protheroe fitzgibbon, Jan 28, 22:47:56
        
        He wasn't great (NCFC) - Darren Eadie, Jan 28, 22:49:05
        
        if it forces Tettey into the side, it probably is. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 28, 22:51:21
        
        I just don't get all this tettey love (NCFC) - Darren Eadie, Jan 28, 22:53:36
        
        The difference is, Tettey plays his role. Wins the ball, headers, and passes safely. (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 28, 22:57:42
        
        Tettey will always have better passing stats as he can only pass it yo a team mate 3 feet (NCFC) - Darren Eadie, Jan 28, 23:03:06
        
        but that's all you need to do in that position (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 28, 23:06:24
        
        They had a slightly better range of passing available than that (n/m) (NCFC) - Darren Eadie, Jan 28, 23:08:24
        
        IN fact BJ made 5/6 long passes; so he failed in 14 of 27 short ones. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 28, 23:30:15
        
        I don't think anyone thinks he's world class (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 28, 22:55:45
        
        We need to spend some serious money in that position IMO (NCFC) - Darren Eadie, Jan 28, 22:57:32
        
        we are looking at Stoke's Glenn Whelan (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 28, 22:59:23
        
        I think he'd be a very good signing for the rest of the season (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Jan 28, 23:00:41
        
        I agree he would (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 28, 23:29:00
        
        Hardly a surprise with clueless Chris! (n/m) (NCFC) - Darren Eadie, Jan 28, 23:32:26
        
        I think he'd do a decent enough job for the rest of the season (n/m) (NCFC) - Darren Eadie, Jan 28, 23:01:38
        
        What were the others stats? (n/m) (NCFC) - Darren Eadie, Jan 28, 22:44:44
        
        Tettey made 8 out of 9; Fer 31 of 38 (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 28, 22:47:05
        
        Excellent (n/m) (NCFC) - Darren Eadie, Jan 28, 22:49:30
