Disco Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Made the difference when he came on today, lovely little cameo. His movement was superb. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I'm guessing Hull play 4-4-2 since they have Jelavic & Long? Might help us. Well a 2 striker system anyway, they like to play 3 at the back too i have noticed. Bruce changes it quite often depending on the opposition. Like Bruce me. So do I http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2010/11/01/article-1325586-0BDA35E1000005DC-349_468x278.jpg http://recom.org/remagv2/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/ReMag-Article-9-Ryan-Taylor.jpg I seem to remember Birmingham beating us 1-5 from a league below in the cup, and Hull beating us this season. So what if he did shit at Sunderland. Bruce's teams play better football than Pardew's. And please tell me when was the last time we scored 4 away goals in one game or 6 at home ?.

Guest palnese Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Looks a decent player, that's the best I can say about him based on his limited appearances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdckelly Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 impressed and did very well to set up the chance Remy somehow missed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Ive seen enough. Sign him up, looked really good today. I think he'll need to threaten the goal more before we make the decision to make it permanent. Difficult for any striker to show what they've got with such poor service though.

Dave Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Looks a decent player, that's the best I can say about him based on his limited appearances. Same. We looked miles better after he came on but the game was really stretched by that point anyway. Still, I'd certainly play him ahead of Cisse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Looks a good footballer. Decent touch, movement, can find a team mate. Doesn't look a tremendous goal threat though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ally Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 If he doesn't score many / any goals that gives us a better chance of signing him in the Summer, yes? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klaus Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 We cannot seriously think about trying to sign this lad until he has at least scored a couple of goals. He has looked promising, and shows some decent touches but he will still cost a few million, and especially if Remy does go elsewhere, we need somebody to put the ball into the net. He should be fully fit by now, so needs to start a successive run of games, hopefully he can produce. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to be giving service to look a goal threat something he hasn't really been given but he's been excellent helping others be a goal threat which is just as vital imo. Was a tidy finish from him yesterday for his offside goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1tche Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Looking forward to seeing him in a 2 with Remy from the start, could be a very dangerous partnership. Remy will thrive on playing next to him like Ba did with Shola and I'm sure De Jong will get more goals than Shola did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I'd sign him up and would make it a priority to get a winger and a playmaker in. He's a good footballer with a solid touch, good movement and seemingly possesses a footballing brain. On top of that, he's also a flexible striker in that he could partner one of Remy, Gouffran or Cisse as well as playing as a lone front man. If we actually invested in a proper winger - or two - and a playmaker, I think he could be a really useful asset that would score goals and contribute a lot in general play.

merlin Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 This boy definitely has talent and I reckon he could go either way at SJP. IF he had someone like KK or Shearer coaching him(both having been top notch forwards) I reckon he could be a great acquisition as soon as he got used to the PL - he has good control, can deliver a decent pass and has enough physique to be a threat to defences. He does seem to lack a bit of pace but he could make up for this with his other attributes...still young too. Took the chance he was given very well even though disallowed and did really well in dispossessing Vlaar and setting up Remy with a gilt-edged chance. Under Pardew, though.......its anyone's guess...
