nufc4eva Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 It's early days, he has played 3 games ffs, it will take time to adjust and I really didn't think he was that bad. Santon was more concerning as he went missing far to often Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Got done a couple of times in the second half, and that's all it takes to be punished usually, so will need to adapt, but otherwise thought he was alright. Really liked him first half. It's nice to see a player at right back that can bring the ball down and there be some expectation that the balls next destination will be at the feet of a Newcastle player.

STM Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I thought he was class going forward, in the first half. Chronic lack of pace against agbonlahor though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugoinufc Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 That penalty...STUPID. He is running away from our goal on the way out of the penalty-area. Not a good game at all...step up and im sure he will be good for the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
localshop Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I'm certain that if Simpson was still playing we wouldn't have won that game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDT Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Don't think he's attempted a floated cross or a 30 yard chipped pass yet so he's a mile ahead of Simpson. He was very good in the first half getting forward and a couple of decent tackles in, second half early on he wasn't used to the pace of Agbonlahor but he improved and got tighter to him after the initial 10-15 minutes. He's very good in the air and like all players coming to a new country he'll get better with more games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Definitely needs time to adapt. Solid on the ball, defensively not the greatest so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Debuchy has shown good attacking skills in his games so far, but is unconvincing when a quick forward takes him on for pace in defence. This could well be that he is used to more time on the ball and to be able to support attacks in the French league and that is not available to him in the PL. He is a quality player, but it may take him a while to adjust...look at Colo's first season... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 He is a bit rash maybe a little over keen to impress, full blooded but its VERY early days for him still, you can see his qualities though and he is a huge improvement on Simpson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 He didnt put a foot in though He did, actually caught Agbonlahor's foot too. Stupid decision to go in rash like that in your own penalty area when the opposition player is moving away from goal. Stay on your feet and just shepherd him out before making a challenge.

TRon Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 He's been France's right back for a while now hasn't he? I'd expect if he was shit he'd have been found out by now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superior Acuña Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I was worried whenever they attacked him in the second half last night. Also thought he might've been injured in last 20mins? Got clattered a few times and was holding his leg and stomach (not just to show to ref but later when game was in-play). As said, early days, i'm not too worried.

Right, those pics WBCP posted prove me wrong: Agbonlahor stepped on Debuchy's foot, not the other way around. Not a pen in that case tbf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
