Siem de Jong (still alive)


Recommended Posts

In fairness to the lad I remember watching Steve Mc L play him for over an hour when we beat Tottenham 2 goals to 1. He pressed from the front and was excellent that match. If anyone can re-watch this he didnt hide but was great as we were away from home.

I think there was that and Liverpool at home back to back where he started just off Cisse, and while the goals came when they came off for Perez and Mitrovic, those two were very good.

Well fuck, for 50k a week I'll pretend I'm a nice dude while retweeting self-deprecating jokes about myself and giving interviews about how teh reeely bad thing happen. How about stringing together at least half a season of consecutive games played without your ever-living soul falling out of your arse?

 

Hope he has a good season :thup:

There's an amazing amount of goodwill toward Siem. Some would say that if he were English or ginger he'd get slated. Not me though, I like him.

 

:lol: anyone else immediately reminded of Big Keith talking about Peak Practice?

FWIW I think he's shite and useless.

How much have you seen of him?

I genuinely haven't got a clue if he's good enough or not.

I'm almost in the same boat, but willing to give him more of a chance due to his previous injury record. From what I have seen of him, he's been slow and largely crap.

Aye. It's not really fitness, but athleticism and his skillset as a player.

 

I hate how slow he is and the fact he can't dribble with the ball. I think you're basically on a hiding to nowt in the PL usually as an attacking midfielder with those attributes.

You could get by if you were a bit more physically robust like Nolan who had those attributes. I think De Jong has some qualities, just don't think he'll shine in English football because he's made of glass.
