badaids Posted August 28, 2022 Report Share Posted August 28, 2022 Worried about this bloke. He’s looked all at sea for most of the time so far. Terrified of taking people on, can’t play a through ball, slowing the play down. He’ll really have to adapt his game especially in the position and role that Frank is playing him. It feels like he is totally ingrained in defensive the Burnley way of playing. Play Onana instead in this role. nyblue23 and chicagoblue 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey Posted August 28, 2022 Report Share Posted August 28, 2022 I don't think he is playing well but there were a few times he picked the ball up in the middle of the pitch looking for attacking options and there weren't any. It just led to him slowing down the attack by going backwards or losing the ball. He also overhit a fairly simple channel ball by at least 20 yards so I can't say with any certainty that it would have made a difference!

I agree, I think he has suffered a fair bit not having a striker in the starting 11 to try and pick out. Hoping we will see a much better showing from once the team has settled a bit, perhaps some introductions in to game from the bench. We need to remember we putting out new player on to the pitch game after game at the moment, and I am guess we are going to be doing this for the next few week - it wouldn't to surprise me to see another three or four new faces by Thursday. I am really not expecting a great deal from this team until the new year in all honesty - This is as close as you are going to get to a near total squad rebuild this summer. It is going to take a fair bit of time for understandings to develop over the pitch. The season starting a couple of weeks early is also going to effect teams who have big rebuilds going on much more that others who are maybe settled and tinkering with a couple of additions.

To be fair though he’s had the likes of Ashley Barnes and Chris Wood running onto those passes so he probably hasn’t adapted to Rondon’s lack of pace… Bailey and Sibdane 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest have won one, drawn one, lost two. They are hardly pulling up trees. I think they will stay up, but I wouldn’t be looking enviously at their squad. Signing 17 players is madness.

Forrest also seem to have a player called a "Striker"? Which I believe is a player that can spearhead attacks, hold up the ball and score goals. Absolute rubbish if you ask me, this mythical striker thing. Anyhoo wingers and attacking players play better if teams have a "Striker" so this may explain a few things.

Romey 1878 Posted August 30, 2022 Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 Still didn't offer much of anything going forward, but I thought he was really disciplined in his defensive work and keeping in shape.

FairWooney Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 Great stats for him matching up to Patterson, which shows just how much Leeds put down their left hand side. He was according to stats also the only player to put in an accurate cross. I would drop him for Maupay against Liverpool but based on that strong defensive display Lampard may fancy dropping Gray, allowing him to keep Gordon more towards the left where he played mostly against Leeds and having McNeil to provide some defensive support.

StevO Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 Against Liverpool I’d be playing Gordon and Gray on the wings. Both pretty aggressive. McNeil is the one to sit out for me. I really like the lad, but I’d worry about him against their intensity. I know he did well against Leeds, but Liverpool (in a derby) the intensity is a different level.

He looked lost out there, which does suggest a lack of confidence. So I really hope that goal (it was a very good one!) gives him the confidence boost he needs.

I thought he took a while to get into the game but once he did I thought he did ok, especially after the goal . Wasn’t an amazing performance by him by any stretch but honestly don’t think he was that bad either. Took his goal really well and contributed more than Gordon has for the past couple of games Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 I think there is an honest player there. Athleticism is lacking but technically very good. Offered far more than Gordon has done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
