Cripple Creek To be honest if my name was Ulysses de la Cruz I would be so godamn chuffed with myself for having such a cool name that I would never do a day's work in my life.


Hear hear.

Deserving of his place on that fact alone.


And he does a lot of work for charidee.

Still the worst player in the team though.

Arch That was his best game in a Readig shirt. He does have some glaring weaknesses, obviously, but he also does some things exceptionally well.


Right - did you see Sonko telling him off, like Ingimarsson used to do to Hunty.

Ulises IS getting better, we've seen a lot of players improve under Coppell.

He played better than normal but Sonko still had to cover him most of the game and he let Johnson in for the equaliser. A 6/10 performance as opposed to his regular 4/10.

Can't blame him for the goal - that lands squarely at the feet of USA who should have stayed on his line.

As for your ratings of him - at least he's improving and who's to say that SSC and the other coaches won't turn him into a more consistent and beter player? I'd rather he was improving (albeit slowly) than getting worse.

agreed. people are also forgetting that he's coming into a very settled side in an extremely competitive and difficult league - remember RFC's history in the Prem is ab out 20 games long, we're bound to have some players who take their time to find their feet. yes I know he was at Villa but he's had a fair time not playing regularly. I back Wally to get the best out of him.

Why did Coppel pick him, he's no more than League 2 quality.

And yes i'm very happy with a point but he's terrible.

Did great to replace Shorey, no one is perfect and anyone else who thinks otherwise is a numpty. Needs more time to play to perfect his trap and communication. Hopefully more great performances to come.

Post match Coppell stated that De La Cruz was due to start at right back. So did Murts move up from the bench after Shorey's late withdrawl ? In which case was their another late addition to the bench in addition to Seol ?
