Ste Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 They sat back a lot more when he shifted up front and Atsu came on. Before that they had the freedom of the pitch to push up knowing that Gouff wouldn't beat a man, the ball bounces off Mitro and Ritchie cuts inside.

huss9 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 I reckon Rafa isn't serious about him or Anita getting a new contract, he can't really say i don't want either in the future right now. He's just being diplomatic at the moment when asked. keeping them motivated for the rest of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shak Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Was Ritchie injured or how on earth did this guy stay on instead? Desperately need someone who isn't rubbish out there for the coming games. Rafa seems to not trust Atsu but honestly what the fuck does Gouffran do? I wouldn't mind seeing Perez out there with Diame off Gayle. (I didn't see the game obviously, feels a pretty safe assumption that Gouffran offered absolutely nothing out wide as ever though.)

sempuki Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Back to s*** again. As if he hasn't been s*** for 3 years, man. He's had his moments and was good at the start of the season. He is what he is - a willing trier who scores the odd goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shak Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Usually scores when he's playing at his shittest like yesterday. He seriously offers nothing. Apart from the odd goal here and there. Yeah, his one goal every 429 minutes he's been on the pitch this year has really made it worthwhile having an absolute hindrance to our general attacking play on the left wing. Ritchie has a goal every 312 minutes and Atsu a goal every 238 minutes by the way, and as a bonus neither of them are utterly terrified of being asked to receive or play a pass.

Kanj Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 He'd be on the bench if we'd have signed Townsend in January or if Rafa trusted Atsu to do the defensive part of the game. Not defending including Gouffran, like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alijmitchell Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I can forgive gouffran a bit because he doesn't really get any help down the left - it is really Dummett that's the problem Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I actually think it's Gouffran that is the hindrance to Dummett. I'm no fan of Dummett but Gouffran barely ever offers for the ball wide, meaning Dummett more often than not has to go long. An actual wide midfielder would see an (albeit limited) improvement from Dummett IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Yup. Gouffran is the biggest problem, in that he's a winger that can barely do anything required of the position. Dummett is a limited fullback, but far more up to his role (at this level) than Gouffran. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFEE Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I only judge this lad when he plays as a centre forward. For £750k he's more than paid his worth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nessy, you constantly remind people of your position at the match as if it offers exclusive insight that can't be observed from the other 3 stands or TV Why??

Gouffran is playing out of position, though. Clearly. He's a useful player for us in this league and he's still better than the majority of the players playing his position in the same league. We've got bigger problems than him. Btw, the stats.... ..... I don't think Ritchie had a better record, to be fair, until his recent good spell. I mean even he then was labelled as crap.
