He’s a step above any player we’ve had in decades. I thought the same and still think ability wise he's another level.. I'm concerned the drop is not tiredness though. Been bitten before like this with schneiderlein and Barkley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post StevO Posted January 5, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 5, 2019 The lad is an outstanding player who is excellent on the ball. Being excellent will only get you so far if you don’t have runners and options when you have the ball. A player like him will excel in a team that is full of confidence and playing well, when the rest of the team aren’t doing that it pretty much kills your game. He should have been no where near that game today. Romey 1878, Matt, nutmegwolf203 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted January 5, 2019 Report Share Posted January 5, 2019 In the last few games I have noticed how often he has been picking the ball up deep of the CBs and then controlling the game. In the first halves of games he has been always moving, always demanding the ball. When he has stopped doing that, mainly in the 2nd half, we have lost that hold on the match, we lose possession too readily and the game becomes scrappy. He is also getting more passes under pressure, not being as accurate and his own game nosedives. When he first came on today he was again very static, but once he warmed up properly he was demanding the ball all the time and he dominated the game the way Gana, Davies and Siggy should all have done before him.

Btay Posted January 6, 2019 Report Share Posted January 6, 2019 Watching him today he reminded so much of berbatov - he just glides past players without even trying. nutmegwolf203 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shukes Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 Starting to think we’ve seen him at his very best, and hay his average game.... just isn’t very good. Is this why he isn’t getting a chance at Barca? His passing is atrocious. It’s not the hard balls either, it’s the simple ten yard passes that he can’t seem to hit a player with. Mots easy to play a 40 yard ball into a player with space, they have a few seconds to get into position to receive a ball, but to play a short ball you have to be an accurate passer, and he just isn’t. Im afraid he just isn’t the answer to or dilemma. Dacoure, would be a much better option. Tough and dynamic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 Think he needs time out of the squad, get his head together. Also don’t think he’s a DCM either and considering the attacking quartet aren’t holding the all up, he’s not able to play his natural game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 Not worth what's been quoted. Mentally flawed. Sad but true. Hes like Barkley as I said weeks ago.... fuck all to do with tiredness. That lot played 120 minutes midweek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly some players just don't have the strong mindset to allow their talent to prosper. He just doesnt look anything like the player he can be.

I think a few fans are trying to gloss over how bad he actually is when he isn'tt playing well.... he literally can't pass the ball. It's like watching a golfer with the yips or a dart thrower struggling to release the dart. I haven't seen one of his shots threaten the goal yet. Yes ive seen him have 3 or 4 games where he looks like a rolls Royce... class. Sadly I've seen him resemble a robin reliant too. He mentioned that he struggled mentally at Barca. I thought a new team would do him good. Sadly I think it's more deep rooted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 I am now beginning to wonder whether he made such an impression coming into the side because he was the most rounded midfielder we have had since Barry and McCarthy were at their best. He does always look forward and he wants play the right way. He is very good on the half turn, which is an admirable trait in midfielders, but whilst he is technically good his passing decisions aren't great and his shooting is crap. He is a petulant and rash tackler, he doesn't really compete that much in the air and he is useless at tracking runners for set pieces. I do think there is a very good player there, especially once he is fully settled but I think the price would definitely have to be right as I think our priority should be for a more dominant midfielder ahead of him.

StevO Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 I’m at the point where it might be worth trying him with Schneiderlin in midfield, not because Gana is doing anything wrong just to try a player alongside who might bring something else out in his game. At this point anything is worth a try isn’t it? Bailey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
