sturla Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 He is better defending and attacking comparing to Debuchy! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 He reminds me of a silky Dabizas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinport53 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 His first touch, dribbling and final product are brilliant like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Agree, think he's quite a lot better than Debuchy. Always felt Debuchy was too slow. Don't think Daryl's any faster but he's much more intelligent with his positioning and forward runs. Doesn't get so tight either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Miles better than Debuchy. Took Debuchy 9-10 months to get near this lads performances right off the bat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Of all our signings - he's probably looked the best so far. Imagine if he gets better as he adapts to the league.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Miles better than Debuchy. Took Debuchy 9-10 months to get near this lads performances right off the bat. Much as I loved The Boosh Janmaat doesn't have his tendency to flounce either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Also the best crosser of the ball in the entire squad. Love for him to take all of our set pieces, including direct freekicks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 In all seriousness, as I've said before, he's very much like Debuchy, better going forward than defending. A good header, full of energy, decent pace and cross. Good replacement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 He is showing consistency to suggest he's actually better than Debuchy. Really like him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdckelly Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 He is showing consistency to suggest he's actually better than Debuchy. Really like him. key point for me, Debuchy could be brilliant but for as many good games as he had as many where he was poor at best. Plus Jaanmat does look a better defender in addition to the good attacking outlet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Our second best player behind Sissoko IMO. Starting to find real consistency. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dinho lad Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Yep, better than Debuchy! (Still rate the Frenchman, though) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Debuchy could drag the team into a game a bit though, he was all blood and thunder and driving the team on which I've yet to see Janmaat do. On the other hand he hasn't conceeded loads of penalties... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gino14 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 He seems to just professionally get on with his job. He's developing into a much better defender than Debuchy for us, while also offering a similar amount of attacking threat. Whether Debuchy will play better than that for Arsenal, we'll have to see, but he wasn't better than Janmaat for us, at least from Janmaat's recent form.

HawK Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Every time I see him he looks like he's two moves ahead of everyone else, extremely smart, uncompromising and always finds himself in acres of space. Way too good for us, how we got him and for so cheap is beyond me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Just thinking about it - Janmaat has adapted to the demand of the league far quicker. He's equally paced, if not 1/2 a step or so better. He's better positioned and less prone to getting caught out. His work rate is quite brilliant, he's tracked some runs down centrally and made some great tacklers. Debuchy is probably better in the air. Debuchy probably is a better slide tackler, Janmaat seems better reading of the game. Janmaat looks better at intercepting and breaking. I'd say he's a better dribbler, better crosser, and more intelligent attacker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Janmaat's also 4 years younger! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
