TRon Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 He's been working on his crossing with Stone. Good to hear. Maybe Steve Stone should be working on first team players then if his input is so beneficial. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 He did alright today but there was something about him where I didn't really get excited when he had the ball. I don't think he's going to make it to be honest, he just doesn't look complete, hard to say why because like I said he didn't do anything right, it's just a feeling I had watching him. Even the lad next to me said that he needs another season away, I just think he's hit the ceiling of his potential. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jeebuzchrist! Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 he had 2 assist today, including a sweet and perfect cross. He bossed the center in the second half and vas very reliant in hiss passing, aswell as very good with the ball to his feet. Man of the match for me. He should start over marveaux aginst everton, with cabaye injured. Depending on if pardew will go with a defensive midfield with tiote or a more offensive with anita sissoko and ameobi/marveaux Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotus Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Looks like he's getting stronger which is good (and needed). Was too good for Leeds. Let's see if he can keep on improving to the point at which he can compete in the Prem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you mean about not getting "excited", in that when Hatem has the ball i'm instantly on the edge of my seat, however Sammy was always very positive in his play. Don't agree about not making it, think he's got all the ingredients to do well and I actually agree with the lad next to you, he's still about a season away imo.

Lotus Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 When he fills out a bit he'll be a lot stronger. Then he'll have a physical advantage and that is extremely useful in the Prem. He also hits the ball very well, nice contact. You can see it in his passing at times and his crosses. If he gets the rest of his game together he could be good. Quite a lot to do though.

Ryan Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Was impressed with him last night and I've been one of his biggest critics in the past. The cross for the first goal was perfect and he seems to be able to hold off players a lot more than last season. Still needs to work on his short passing as he gave a few sloppy passes away but if he continues to work hard that should be easy enough to sort out. Him, Dummett and Anita were my MOTM's last night.

Guest DebuchyAndTheBeast Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 It's good to hear an Ameobi having a good match. I think that if he had some of his brother's strength he would be lethal as a number 10: holding up the ball, dribbling and winning fouls in dangerous areas.

Ronaldo Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Really needs to go on loan for a season to develop his footballing brain because that, along with his lack of strength, is the main thing holding him back. He should really be better than this at 21. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Not sure why that's funny. His brother was scoring in the Champions League at a younger age. We don't nuture players. If they aren't much good at 21, they aren't going to be much good at 26. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 True dat, mind. We don't use the loan system well enough, whereas the likes of Man Utd and Chelsea regularly see loanees returning as ready-made Premier League players that they can slot into their squad or make good money on.

If they aren't much good at 21, they aren't going to be much good at 26. What's funny is a mere few months ago you were adamant Sammy's ceiling was League One, said he had no end product and was weak technically. In the few chances he has been given this season he has been amongst our better players, has shown he has end product and decent dribbling and crossing technique. Rather than give him a bit of credit for his good performances, you still see fit to criticise the lad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Hang on, I said he should be on loan in League One. Doing well at home against Leeds United and away to one of the worst teams in League 2 (I didn't see that game so I'll take your word on it) has done nowt to change my opinion. It'd be far more laughable if it had, tbh. He should be on loan, getting games every week. He's basically the same player now he was when he came on at Chelsea in 2011. Pretty fucking unforgivable for the club to fill gaps in the squad created through lack of investment with players who should be playing against men twice a week and learning the game.

Unbelievable Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Nobody touching on why he was so poor in the Championship, then? He might turn out to be a decent player but he's got no natural instinct for scoring and has no end product. League One would be fine. This is qhat you said at the time. If by that last line you meant on loan, I may have misunderstood, in which case never mind and apologies. Fully agree a loan would be best for his development btw, but alas, we cannot afford to let him leave. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
