Can't see what McClaren has said wrong there. He has acknowledged Perez's importance but believes he can get even better so is challenging him to do so.

 

Aye. Bit rich coming from someone who picked Obertan over him to start with like. :lol:

Could that not be to do with the fact Cisse was starting the season though and his game relying on service from wide areas? Not sure Perez's game benefits a striker like Cisse whereas it seems that since Mitrovic has been starting regularly, so has Perez.

McClaren's done absolutely nowt wrong with Perez, man. He was still trying to work out the balance of the whole side earlier on, and went with the orthodox winger in Obertan. Atm I think he's got Perez, along with the rest of the front four, in a good shape. We will of course remain completely shackled by the limited options at centre-midfield.

Obertan is never worth a chance.

 

Exactly. McClaren should have done his homework before leaving our best player on the bench in favour of one of our worst.

Perez best position in the opening game was taken up by Wijnaldum, who also has the same best position, albeit different types of players.

 

The £15m new signing was always getting in ahead of Perez first game and Perez has shown both his worth and character in shifting Wijnaldum from that position.

 

Obertan is a red herring.

Perez can play anywhere across the front line and has done since he forced his way into the side under Pardew, he's consistent wherever he plays. I got ewhat Yorkie's saying with blanace like, Obertan is fast and will stay wide etc, but he's just not good enough, Perez should have started.

While I don't doubt his quality Perez has never looked effective on the wing.

 

Also it is pretty common for new managers coming in to utilise players in their so called best position either to:

 

1. Work out for themselves which positions need fixing

2. Demonstrate to those with the purse strings where the money requires urgent investment.

"Long way to go for Perez," McClaren, before Leicester game.

“Ayoze is someone who is doing very well,” he said. “But he’s under contract for a long while, so I don’t think that’s an issue at the moment. He came here as a player with potential and played a little bit last season.

 

“It’s taken him a while to get going this season but he’s certainly become an important player. I look at him, though, and he’s still got a long way to go. The potential is massive but there’s a lot to do. He’s got to do it consistently, every game, for 95 minutes. That’s what we’re asking.”

 

Sack him.

Doubt our Anti Tinkerman will change the team. Praising Spuds' ground might get people talking.

 

Only an idiot since the explanation is in the article.

He's been linked with Spurs since the last transfer window. Guess you're dim as well as dull. Nice combination.

The youngster’s pace helped put the Reds on the back foot in a victory that has altered the mood a little on Tyneside this week.

 

Perez is a cracking little player but pace isn't really one of his qualities. But then what do I know, Lee Ryder is a qualified sports journalist, he obviously can assess a player more professionally than me.
