He showed he was a good player in the first half of the season. It's clear there's something wrong with his attitude or mentality though.

 

Or the pace and physical side of the premiership has been too much for him in his first season which is more than likely.

 

He's weak as piss man!

 

He'll definitely be gone next season imo, irrespective of the league we're in.

I thought he did ok today. Was much more involved, and had a good chance when he wriggled into the box. There's still a good player in there but it's clear his confidence has been shot.

 

Agree with this but I'm not sure how it's the case, when every other players including even Sissoko seems to have regained theirs.

I don't think it's the pace and physical side that is holding him back

Thought he was fine - quiet, but decent enough on the ball when called upon. Did very well in the first half to put Townsend through twice. Most of our play tends to come down the right as well - first with Sissoko/Janmaat, now with Townsend/Anita - which probably doesn't help.

He's just not involved or influencing the game in any shape or form.

 

He had one burst of pace into the box early 2nd half but seemed to delay shooting and the chance was gone, otherwise anonymous.

 

We can't afford any passengers.

I just watched game of the day there and tbf he seemed involved quite a bit, certainly miles better than he has been for months.

 

He was, it's daft how people seem to have an opinion of him and can't see it when he's not too bad.

"Not too bad" just isn't enough when he could do so much better.

If Aarons is fully fit, i would give him a start instead. He seems similar to Townsend, so having someone with pace on both sides could benefit us alot. Does he fit onto this Rafa system defensively though?

Just watched the whole game and ill be shocked if he does get dropped, he kept possession well and never had any danger from his full going the other way. He does need to do more when attacking, but we need to just win games for now, so performances like yesterday will help that along. Hopefully see his form from earlier in the season again next season

Rather we just bought a real left winger :thup:

Bit late like kanji [emoji38]

 

Aye next season my man :lol:

 

New mobile striker (is Perez just 2-3 paces off being that for us?)

New left winger, possibly a new proper CM to partner tiote/new DM, left back, right back and CB competition.

 

New squad basically, Ffs :lol:

This is the thing, when I watch him, he does seem to hold off players really well, but just doesn't seem to get involved enough given his undoubted ability. I'm not sure Rafa will want to get rid if we stay up, but he hasn't done enough to avoid getting dropped so something will have to change if he's going to be here next season.

I thought he played alright?  Still not involved enough and it may just be because my expectations are extremely low ATM, when it comes to Gini.  But he was running riot at the start of the second half, when he went more central.  I thought Palace were shit scared of him and struggled whenever we got him on the ball.
