He had a couple decent link ups in the box and dropped deep a lot to pass and make a run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smeghead1 Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 I'm not making any judgements on today's performance we had already won the game and we're just comfortably seeing the game out. Judge when we're attacking and trying to get a goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shukes Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Thought he did well. Had some neat touches. Suprised me how well he held the ball up with his back to goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I seen too. Tidy footballer. Very slight. But yeah I think he could be an option for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubecula Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 Jaysus Eric a decision on a few minutes play. Don't be a fuckwit. Maybe he is crap but we don't know that yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 Don't know how anyone can judge him (either way) from that. The game was gone, we were barely even trying by the time he came on. I hope he starts against Norwich. That'll be a much better game to judge him on.

I decided that Niasse was dreadful after about 5 minutes in the cup game against Bournemouth and look how that turned out. Sometimes you just know.

London Blue Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 It will take time for Valencia to fit into the side and for the rest of the players to understand how he likes the ball to be played. From the brief showing tonight, he has pace, good touch and can take players on. He is a small lad so will have to work on how we get the best out of him.

Cornish Steve Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 Don't know how anyone can judge him (either way) from that. The game was gone, we were barely even trying by the time he came on. I hope he starts against Norwich. That'll be a much better game to judge him on. Why not? I can think of at least three players in the last three years that were judged here on fewer minutes play than this! Truth is, though, you're quite right. It takes time for players to adapt, and more than just a few minutes. Let's see how things stand after three or four games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 He started the game really well and I was thinking maybe we do have a handy player after all. But after the first 10 minutes of the game he was nowhere. However, I don't think that was entirely down to himself. We didn't have players supporting him (where was Barkley? Where was Geri?), and for some reason we were lumping high balls up to him and expecting him to win them. I would like to him play with another striker next to him and I think Kone should have come on a lot earlier to do that job.

Hafnia Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 Was it mori playing 40 yard lumps? Couldn't believe it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukes Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 Didn't think he was that bad to be fair. Seemed to work hard, seemed strong and nearly got the equaliser. He looked a month check better player than Ross last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 I think Ron wanted to see what he got. Hopefully he has realized that Kone is the better option as he can be a strong holdup man with his back to goal at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 Valencia didn't help himself though. He offered no presence in the box and when balls were played into good positions he was on his heels waiting for the ball instead of attacking it. That may come with time as he gets used to the squad but he doesn't seem to have the instinct of a natural striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
