Marmoset Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Anyone care to stick their neck out with predictions for his future? First season he looked destined for a top 4 kind of team eventually, looked a bit less so last season. Poor coaching/second season syndrome or just not cut out for the very top? Think he lacks that extra little bit of pace to reach the very top but if he can nail down a position and gain some confidence and improve his decision making he can be a very good top 8 kind of player. Mainly worried he'll never really make a position his own. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chopey Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 IMO skinny little runts that can keep hold of the ball and have good distribution will only prosper long term. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marmoset Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 His distribution wasn't great last year though. Hope thats just thtough poor coaching though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty66 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 I think technically he's very good,his off the ball movement is good too. Really hope he has a great season coming up. Deserves the best at this club as he has been a complete professional since arriving. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Feel like he's actually got the tools to be a brilliant little #10 / Support Striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Think a full and proper pre-season under Rafa gets him back on track, after having had his ability slowly eroded by Pardew, Carver and McClaren. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 When he's on he's brilliant at keeping the ball, quick feet to beat a man and get us countering when we're defending by playing a ball to a winger or that tight control in and around the box.

Billy2Sheds Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 The sooner he gets rid of his Ray Reardon haircut the better. He needs to work massively on his shooting, but I like the lad, he's got a lot of talent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gleebals Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 When you have a big move when young and are then managed by Pardew, Carver and McClaren you are almost certain to go backwards. Watch him thrive this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawK Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 The sooner he gets rid of his Ray Reardon haircut the better. He needs to work massively on his shooting, but I like the lad, he's got a lot of talent Tbh I thought he was our best finisher for the last couple of seasons. His problem is he plays with his head cocked at 90 degrees looking at his own feet and doesn't have any awareness of other players around him. He gets the ball and he should know what he needs to do before he gets it and what his options are, and he doesn't. It's pretty elementary for a PL player. If he could get his head up he'd be fine.

HaydnNUFC Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I don't think he'll go even if they are interested. He gets a regular starting place here. He won't get anything like that at Barcelona. Will be getting junk minutes and games in their B team in the league below. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
