jerome is quick, strong and cause defenders trouble.

unfortunately his passing, shooting, dribbling and attitude needs work.

every player has their positives and negatives. its just unfortunate cameron appears to have more negatives. if we want to be moving up the table, you cant help but feel we need someone better. i am not a paid professional so my effort isnt going towards looking for this player.

we all love our football club and we all think we know whats best. shame we all have differing opinions about whats best :LOL:

when he scores three goals every week, ill excuse him from working off the ball.

but at the moment, he is lucky to get 1 in 4 so he has to redeem himself in other areas. which he isnt doing.

I will put my hand up and say I am always one of the people that sticks up for CJ against the Jerome-Bashers, but like I give credit where credit is due, I do also accept when criticism is deserved.

Today he was woeful.

Werent jumping for headers, very poor awareness and touch, backing out of challenges, had zero passion, very very far from the Jerome we see week in week out.

And yet still had a hand in both of the goals.

Funny that.

The fact that after we scored the second, Bowyer, Ferguson and Gardner practically disappeared, Fads was still carrying his groin strain and Larsson was nealy scythed in two by the referee best man, Kevin Davies, meant that Jermore was reduced to an active participant in the Standing Around With Nothing To Do Championships.

Hardly his fault.

Yes, he missed a one-on-one, but then they've never been a particular strong point of his. But he does run around, he does drag defenders with him, he has got pace to burn, and he does know where the net is, (but not the keeper sometimes it seems)

But still, lets all shout obscenities at him and tell him he's useless. That'll make him a better player.

Read my post.

Let me know at which point, did I 1)Call him useless? Or 2)Shout an obscenity at him.

I aint gotta clue what goes through the head of a small section of the people on this forum, moan when I always stick up for Jerome, and I still get moaned at when I admit he had a bad game.

I think my post was perfectly in line with what happened.

Just because I'm quoteing you, doesn't mean I'm disagreeing or having a go at you. My comments are a follow on from yours.

Yes, today he may have not been up to scratch, but today he helped set up two goals, and some would have him as the worst player ever to pull on a Blues shirt.

My comments weren't directed at you, and I apologise if it came off that way.

Fair enough fella.

Like I acknowledged in my post, he is a good player with heaps of potential, but for me, he could have done alot better yesterday.

It makes me angry to see any player back out of a challenge, and he seemed to just let players control the ball infront of him, and werent jumping for headers.

Im sure it didnt help that he was upfront on his own either.

Personally I reckon Jerome would be better employed as a 'second striker' working off Zidic. He's better in the hole IMO.

I defended Cameron to the hilt last season, but his first three performances this season really have me worried.

I honestly thought he'd grow from his good form around Christmas time last year and develop as a footballer.

All I've seen this season is poor touches, no desire to outmuscle players and hold up the ball and poor, poor finishing.

He's got great potential, I just hope he's going to start realising it!

I know he's not been great so far this season, but the ignorance and hatred displayed yesterday by some on here was sickening.

If Cameron Jerome was the perfect player he wouldn't be at Blues....

True Trev **thumbup

If there was anything decent about Jerome as a striker then Brucie would have taken him to Wigan when he left us.. ;)

Cant believe so many people think Jerome is strong :rolleyes: he's like a little kitten thats his problem he is not aggresive at all & hardly ever uses this so called power that people imagine he has. :P

for those looking at total cj apperances against goals consider before coming to us he had that amazing season in the ccc with cardiff, that accoutns for a huge chunk of his goals over his career.

Im a big cj fan but as a prem striker he has not been producing regularly, however what is most incouraging is he is improving season by season for us and that is all we can ask, last season was by far his best in the prem for us and im confident this season he will do better

What a stupid comment jerome and drogba in the same sentence, GET A GRIP!!!!

Jerome is consistant he proves time and time and time and time again he CANT finish, even the sky commentators picked up on it yesterday when he went through in injury time and could of won it.

the bloke just has not got it, if he wasnt fast he wouldnt be anywhere near the premier league FACT

Given that chance yesterday, any one of the 10 strikers at spurs would have slotted it at a canter. Are you Jerome lovers blind, or just in denial?

Starts every game and never gets subbed. Fans can moan, but I argued with a few people on here about jerome at the start of last season, and a few of yous were saying you'd rather phillips and oconnor up front, that's when I realised a lot of fans haven't actually got a clue about football. I said jerome would start up front every game and be our top goalscorer. and he was. He also has added the ability to assist others as well as shown yesterday. Now all you fans can continually slag him off, but he's the best we have, and has proved he can do a job in the prem for quite a poor attcking wise, team. He's had one chance in 3 games. Saha had about 4 againts the villa and didn't convert, and I always say the same thing, imagine what you lot would be like if he did that. Eck rates jerome and knows he's a vital part of our team. So you 'fans' who choose to voice your opinion, please use it constructively and sensibly, because a lot you think your football experts, but your not. I doubt a lot of you have ever played football at a decent standard. Big eck knows more than you, hence he picks jerome before anyone. Rant over.

This is why M'cleish worries me sometimes.

WHY does he keep starting him? Just What does M'cleish see in him?

Why a full 90 mins yesterday?

Jerome was a lone striker against one of the bigger centre backs in the league, and an england international along side this player, who isnt exactly slow. Theres no suprise to me with one upfront jerome didnt manage to get himself more than one clear cut chance all game, on his weaker foot i may add and he did try to do the smart thing and put it back across goal, but the keepers out stretched leg just got there first. he was never gonna win any headers, and to be fair he made a very good assist for the goal, i expected him to try an effort on goal but it was very unselfish of him to head it back across, especially in the space he was in, and also why is there no hatrid for matt derbyshire? did he even touch the ball in the 20 odd minutes he was on?

Didn't he assist in both our goals? Maybe you should take another look at the goals and consider if he wasn't in those postions.

Oh yeah. I forgot how fabulous a player Zigic is turning out to be.

You're right about Philips though, he is always worth the last ten mins, and he's heart and soul for whoever he's played for.

Better than Zigac, O'Connor and Derbyshire?

Doubt it.

Jerome should start ON the bench, AM did it with Chucho for half of last season, Zigic,O'Connor and Derbyshire should all start when fit before Jerome..simples..
