TRon Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I honestly think he has massive potential. He has all the tools to be a world class LB. Just needs more time to get better at his decision making and be more calm with the ball at his feet. He looks like he's come on massively in the last year, but then I was a big fan regardless. We know he can bomb forward and put in decent crosses, but he looked physically bigger and more commanding as well. Under the right manager his value could rocket.

Kanj Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Was nice seeing him get on the right side of a strong challenge earlier when he took out Sagna, but then again, true to form - 'Sadio finds a way to get fucking dropped in nearly every match Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Another reason to question Pardew's sanity. This guy s being kept out by Dummett. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussiemag Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Whenever the poor bugger plays, we seem to lose and Pardew uses him as a scapegoat and drops him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Fullback is a much harder position if you try to get forward as well, it's easy as anything if you just keep the entire pitch in front of you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twinport53 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I love this guy, but I love him more with Aarons ahead of him. They seem to have a little bit of an understanding to go forward together and overlap etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem to have a little bit of an understanding to go forward together and overlap etc Yeh they do look like they have a good understanding, they were menacing in the pre-season games in New Zealand. Theres huge potential there for our left hand side to be sorted for a good few years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I think Dummett is more reliable than Haidara, but certainly more limited at the same time. Eventually it won't even be up for debate, barring any injuries we will be wondering who we'd rather have over him and Santon. At that stage one of them will leave...Dummett to remain as backup.

DJ_NUFC Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Flashy McForeignpants better realize Dummett has already tackled his way into the team forever, and now Santon and he can fight for the scraps for fullback. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Tremendous energy and fitness. Always supporting attacks. Showed today he can defend properly although he was caught slightly on his heels a few times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Better than Dummett at LB, but would be tempted to keep Dummett at CB which means they can both be on the pitch, happy days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnes23 Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Impressive today. Only remember him being caught out of position once yet offers so much more than Dummett going forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 It was only QPR, so the best part of his game got to be used a lot more and he looked decent again, especially in the first half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 He's got everything to be a top fullback really, except maybe needs to learn better positioning. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawK Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 He's got everything to be a top fullback really, except maybe needs to learn better positioning. So he doesn't then Choice of wording tickled me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiston Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 He's got everything to be a top fullback really, except maybe needs to learn better positioning. Our fullbacks cannot win really with some of our fans, they be attacking and of course won't be in position to get back quickly, that is when one of our DM's should be filling in that position. That doesn't happen a lot for us though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Assuming Dummett stays at CB, Haidara will benefit from having an extended run in the side. Up till now, he's never looked completely sure of himself. He's a good athlete and needs to make better use of that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 First half hour against QPR he had a cracking game, goes forward really well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
