c1982 Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 Gordon for me - loved his direct play and always looked dangerous. Nkounkou looked very bright too - they linked up really well. It’s clear many on display don’t have a future here but I’d confidently say that this pair do. Romey 1878 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aidan Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 Wanted to go for Keane for a mature performance leading the team through the victory, also played some nice passes. Had to go with Nkounkou. He showed what he's about tonight and was dangerous throughout. Had a couple of dodgy moments towards the end but seems to be a really exciting player. Blistering pace too. Shout out for Gordon who never stopped trying and had some really good moments throughout the game. He cuts inside really well and has a good shot on him. On another night could have had a couple of goals. Did well for the assist and (i think) winning the penalty. Gylfi for me played a couple of nice penetrating passes and got the goal, but still looks to be a 'luxury player'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiggytop Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 Niels, exciting to watch, strong, positive and good feet. Gordon improved as the game went on, Keane solid and held the team together at the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted September 16, 2020 Report Share Posted September 16, 2020 Gylfi for me too. Been a while since I have said that on one of these threads! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukes Posted September 17, 2020 Report Share Posted September 17, 2020 Nkounkou. Since coming here he has had three appearances now and each one he has looked like he is already a first team player. Great going forward, fast, dangerous. Bit of a question over his defensive side at the moment, but more because he hasn’t been put u see a test at the moment.

Romey 1878 Posted September 17, 2020 Report Share Posted September 17, 2020 Gordon. It's mad that I'm seeing so much praise for Gylfi because I thought he was his usual poor self for large portions of that game. But he pops up with a goal, an assist and could have had another which masks that he needs to go or at least not play very often until the happy day of the end of his contract arrives. duncanmckenzieismagic, StevO and Hafnia 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t speak for anybody else but the goal and assist had no real bearing on why I voted for him as MotM I voted for him because he put a shift in, bossed the midfield, was good defensively and going forward, and thought his distribution was spot on all night Doesnt mean I suddenly want him back in the starting XI every week or that I would be adverse to selling him. It just means I thought he played well last night Palfy, markjazzbassist, Bailey and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said to my mate that Gylfi had done fuck all apart from that corner, just as he put the ball on Kean’s head. I thought he was too quiet, for a player of his experience and supposed quality against a team like that, I want more.

And then pulling the Balotelli celebration just pissed me off. He simply hasn’t got the mentality for the premier league. Wonder if Salford would take him? Important to remember he’s a kid still getting used to a new country, language etc.. and he’s had limited game time. His mentality at 20 isn’t necessarily his mentality at 22 or 25. He had a poor game but at the end of last season there was a general feeling of positivity about him. One game after a limited preseason shouldn’t erase that. Perhaps he’s not cut out for the premier league but it’s early to make that call in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
