Gallowgate Toon Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 He just can't siem to settle into the pace when he comes on as a sub. Have a hunch he's better as a starter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujpest doza Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 We lost all our momentum when he came on. It meant Tiote went off which meant the midfield was overran. It also meant Ayoze was shoved left wing and starved of the ball. From what little I've seen of De Lung I think he's a crock of shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujpest doza Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Looks as bad as Luuk did for us Steady on. He's looked worse than Luuk did for us to be fair. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Such a shit signing, this guy. One of the worst. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toondave Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Such a shit signing, this guy. One of the worst. Wouldn't go that far. I'm usually pretty quick to write players off but I still have hope for siem, he never really looks inept on the ball he's just usually behind play or in the wrong position, hopefully that's more down to his injury and lack of game time than any lack of talent.

Dave Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 He's barely played but I've seen absolutely nothing of note from him so far tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 He looked handy at Villa in his first or second game for us, was always involved and making things happen. I like him and hope he does well but suspect he'll end up being regarded as a flop, a la Jon Dahl Tomasson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 He looked handy at Villa in his first or second game for us, was always involved and making things happen. I like him and hope he does well but suspect he'll end up being regarded as a flop, a la Jon Dahl Tomasson. Reminds me of Viana a bit. Very talented but totally unsuited to the physicality and pace of the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 He'd have been exactly the same last season had he been fit. Absolutely unsuited to our style when we bought him and now he's totally unsuited to the formation we play. Poor bloke must've wished he'd stopped in Amsterdam.

Tiresias Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 I think should perez or mitrovic be unavailable for a game or two worth a shot just behind a striker, unfair to say he's done nothing, he's scored despite barely playing. Still, not convinced. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 I don't think he's totally unsuited to our system, he could play where Perez plays. Unfortunately for him Perez is playing extremely well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 I'm not completely convinced he could partner mitrovic has to be said, he's meant to be not very quick but good in the air and bringing balls down, in a way seems similar to mitrovic but not suited to the league, he's not going to have the lateral movement that makes Perez such an effective partner up front. He would make more sense behind Perez imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggs Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 I don't think he's totally unsuited to our system, he could play where Perez plays. Unfortunately for him Perez is playing extremely well.

Kanj Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 He looked handy at Villa in his first or second game for us, was always involved and making things happen. I like him and hope he does well but suspect he'll end up being regarded as a flop, a la Jon Dahl Tomasson. Agree 100%. When he first joined he looked far quicker. He looks far slower and that ain't saying much I know. Ayoze' pace and guile is what sets him apart versus De Jong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sempuki Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Can't fault his attitude at least: http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/siem-de-jong-requests-play-10367927 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Pinkman Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 He's played 105 minutes in the Premier League this season (Thauvin has played nearly 300 in comparison) and didn't play for most of last season. Don't have a clue how you can be writing him off at this stage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 I'm still really excited to have him here, it's just going to be tricky to integrate him when we're so desperate for points. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 It is an unfortunate situation as he needs games to get back to match fitness but we are in the position where we can't afford to take risks at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1pe Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Similar to a few others I still believe he'll come good for us. Although I don't think he's massively suited to our counter attacking play style. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 what if ayoze gains in power as sdj diminishes through injury? fucked up but probably true. i assume everyone is cool with this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varadi Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 what if ayoze gains in power as sdj diminishes through injury? fucked up but probably true. i assume everyone is cool with this.

Parky Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Semi-crock. Lacks pace and fitness and generally a bit of a plodder. Has vision and close control but these are things as nothing if you don't have an engine and athleticism in the PL. I'd get rid of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly has talent but like a lot of our signings lack key attributes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
