Boab Mugabe Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Seeing as we've had the well done Miko threads I feel he's entitled to some praise as well. I've been very quick to criticise him in the past, but today I thought he did very well against De Vries. Also made a great tackle in the 2nd half IIRC.

Only a Game Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 By far and away his best game in a Hearts jersey since he hasnt had Pressley or Webster partnering him. Looked like an international centre half today and looked like a worthy club captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdewar42 Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Christophe had an excellent game, nullifying De Vries. (What a pleasure to participate in a positive thread!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan_R Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 in my FM game he's 'holding out for a france call up':rolleyes: On a more serious note, he's a good player. still feel his development is suffereing from not having a stable partner in defence though.

jamboinglasgow Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 was pleased to see Berra ordering Zalikus to move forward, starting to show organisation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudi must stay Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Berra had a great game, he is also starting to look a bit more like a captain imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adayinmay Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Except for one daft pass, Berra had a blinder today. Well done son. my thoughts exactly. He was superb today. Really enjoyed watching his tusstle with MDV. He showed the art of a centre half today. Very impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosanostra Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I was expecting to see Berra getting bullied by MDV today but he fought his heart out. If he could stay as dominant as today, he'd get a chance for Scotland sooner or later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibpc Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I do think Berra is a brave, reliable and intelligent centre half - but I wish he would give a bit more thought and time, when he can, to his play out of defence. Too often it's the hoof the ball in the air approach which just gives possession back to the opposition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bighusref Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I have said it when he played not so well but it still stands up when he is on form, Berra is better than Webster was at the same stage of development. The right partner next year and we could see him take a huge leap in ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMA MAROON Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I was expecting to see Berra getting bullied by MDV today but he fought his heart out. If he could stay as dominant as today, he'd get a chance for Scotland sooner or later. Berra will find it hard to get into the Scotland side as MCManus is also a left sided centre back.

Bindy Badgy Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I thought he was excellent yesterday. It's the best I've seen him play for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clerry Jambo Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 The lad was magnificent against an awkward opponent in DeVries - Zally played well too it has to be said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4marsbars Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 In the dark days of December/Jan, most of our goals came from Berra's ball winning at corners (sometimes combined with Velicka's finishing), showing his (CB's) willingness to come forward and take a lead. I think he's been our best performer since the turn of the year. We've gone from leaking goals to having a series of shut-outs (lost count) against all but the OF (and St M). You can't argue with these stats. I just hope he stays. We could do with another like him, though. But there's another youngster coming through, isn't there?

N User Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I sadi in the ratings thread yesterday, I think that was the first time i've thought Berra acted like a captain. He was barking orders and giving advice all game. Excellent stuff from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
