Raconteur Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 So it's taken 20 odd million and a record breaking transfer for Ayoze to finally do his lightning-quick turn on the halfway line again! For the first time in about 3 years he looks interested again. Absolutely brilliant today and deserved his goal. Lovely finish. That's not true since he was very good towards the end of last season, was crucial in keeping us up Indeed - he was out of form for a couple of months at the start of this season (like virtually everyone), but he's probably been our best player over the last 12 months.

My bad. He's been a miserable git for a while now despite the hard work he does. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Hope he has another late spurt of goals and gets close to double figures. He’s capable of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Won't believe we are after him until i see "very strong defensive contribution" next to his page on Whoscored. Is it on there yet? He deserves it by now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I heard him say something along the lines of It would be really difficult with the likes of Diego Costa in the squad, ie saying they had an embarrassment of riches so it would be unlikely.

triggs Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 He was really irritating in the role he mostly played for us until recently while also being probably our most productive player at the same time. Has really thrived since getting that bit more support from Atsu first and now Almiron Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 He’s always been very good technically, the biggest improvement to his game is ball retention and being stronger in possession. He was far too easy to knock off the ball and this regularly left us exposed as he’d lose possession in the middle of the park and we’d be caught out of shape when he lost it. It’ll be interesting to see how he links in with Almiron against a proper team with 11 men. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 If we had a proper fleshed out squad then when Ayoze has dips in form he could be rotated out, he's certainly a player who has dips in form but with limited numbers Rafa couldn't rotate him to give a break.

It’ll be interesting to see how he links in with Almiron against a proper team with 11 men. One thing I noticed against Huddersfield more than any of his other recent performances, he wasn't knocked off the ball anywhere near as many times. He actually stood up to some shoulder barges and tackles really well.. hopefully it's finally clicked Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Look much better for not being played as a no.10. Allows him to get into more space and to not be back to goal so much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
