Romey 1878 Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 I know its still (relatively) early, but KM looks like a new player, or at least the player we all know he can be. I always knew he was talented, but the past two years have been downright bizarre to say the least. I think RK has already made a big difference to his spirit and energy, and i think its only gonna get better. I mean butter. No, I mean better. Kev needs to be loved and made to feel like he's important, then he's happy and when he's happy he plays very well. He's got those things at the moment and it's clear he's enjoying himself again. We should reap the benefits of that because there's no doubt that then when he's on it he's a match winner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chalkpie Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 ^ True. Its almost liked we signed a new player. I REALLY hope he keeps this fighting spirit up and shows consistency - if he does - I think he is going to be a major contributor to this side again. Ross on the other hand needs to get with the program, although that's a subject for a different thread I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's had a steady start under Koeman but it's a big change for him and he's going to take time to feel comfortable. He's gone from being left to do whatever he wants to having a proper role, and he'll take time to adjust to that. I'm excited about the player he could be under Koeman though, very excited. He has the tools and now he should have the instructions for how to go about applying them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 I'm glad we got a manager who knows how to use Kevin. He's doing very well playing wide and interchanging in all the forward positions. You could see how happy he was with that goal like he's been working his ass off to get back to where he was a couple years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirallas Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 Yeah I'm positive again It took me 2 seasons but I think Kevin is going to add to my enjoyment of watching games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 The competition for places, the quality in deulofeu, bolassie, and potentially this Algerian guy will bring out the best in him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shukes Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 1 goal and 1 assist in two games..... And that's all that could nys isn't it? Or does that just count for Lukaku.

Bailey Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 We will see how song it lasts with Mirallas. With Bolasie, Lennon, Gerry and the new guy competing for two spots I can see him getting a sulk on again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Bolasie, Lennon, Gerry and the new guy competing for two spots I can see him getting a sulk on again! Doubt it mate he's started last two games and it was Deulofeu subbed for Bolasie. Kev is evidently fighting for the shirt. He's working hard that's all he can do but Koeman is obviously willing to give him a chance to prove himself unlike Roberto Matt and Sibdane 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Faded during the second half, but was a real pest defensively first half and was busting his ass to get some attacks on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be muscle mass lost with that otherwise he would have had to have had body fat in the 20%'s I said last year that I noticed Ross, Rom, Gerry and even Baines looked bulky/bloated. Ross looks a bit slimmer - Lukaku needs a few weeks as does Gerry but Baines looks fitter than ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowensda Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 That's true for when he turns up. It's just 50/50 whether you get the great Mirallas or the ghost one. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowensda Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 I'd say in terms of output he's one of the more consistent wingers in the league. The rest must be desperately inconsistent then. I like Kev, I think he's a very good player, my issues have always surrounded his impact in games. I don't even think it's to do with him being bothered or not, just certain games suit him more and 'things' can happen in one game, that don't in others. Not sure whether he needs to adapt his styles based on the opposition? I have no idea. It's the games that drift by which disappoint because they're usually big games on the back of some good form.

Harder he works the more the great will come out I reckon...looks fitter than he's ever been..could be the difference to us being top 4 or not this guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 That's true for when he turns up. It's just 50/50 whether you get the great Mirallas or the ghost one. To be fair to him though, he needs a consistent run out and away from injuries and crap managers. Then we might see him as a more consistent player, hard to judge him considering he's only up to 100 appearances for us (if he plays tonight) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Mr. Invisible in the first half but came alive when there was a lively player on the pitch like Geri, unlike the abysmal Barkley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newty82 Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 Play him central. Allows him more freedom to use his creative mind to find space. More of a free role rather than restricting him to a wing. He's better suited in that hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC11 Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 He played some lovely balls in the second half much more effective than Barkley. I don't think Barkley should be in the side at the moment. Problem with Bolasie, Deulofeu & Mirallas is they all blow hot and cold.
