themanupstairs Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Some serious stupidity in this thread. How some can have a go at fans on a message board for rating Mitrovic as if it has any bearing on Benitez picking him or dropping him from the lineup. Laughable stuff. Not his best performance today at all, but what a goal. His confidence in his own ability and his passion might make him a player one day. Or not rating him? Some of the posters who don't rate him seem to think it's the fault of those who do that Mitro gets a game the way they're going on about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy84 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 According to his stats it was his 75th career goal today Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Drogba didn't pull up any trees until he was in his mid-twenties, if we're talking pointless comparisons. Reckon Mitro has done alright for a 21 year old so far, with his goals domestically, internationally and in the champions league, it's not his fault we placed all of our faith in him for our goals this year. Anyone who can't see useful qualities in him for a kid his age must be watching different games to me, I think he'll end up being a very good striker whether it's here or elsewhere. Doesn't help us now though this is the issue. I like him, he has a lot of heart and of course will develop over time. It won't happen in the next 8 games.

toon25 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 He's got nee pace. That'll stop him from becoming a top player imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stottie Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 He's clearly not fast, but he's looked more sluggish in the past month or so than he did in that West Ham home game. I dunno if it's tactics, fitness or an injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEEJ Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 He is not good enough at the moment, but people tend to forget his age. Can't think many target men who are already at their best at 22. He is going to get a lot better and he just needs someone to challenge him for the strikers place. Maybe Cisse being fit again changes this. Give your head a shake man for f***s sake and stop making excuses for this heap of s*** regarding his age. Just look at Lukaku who's only a year older and light years ahead He's not a premier league striker in a million years. To be honest I'd give passion and take my shirt off and run around if I scored against them, doesn't detract from the point I'd be s**** for 99% of the game What an absolute pleb.

NEEJ Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Apart from the goal he was absolutely dogshit. Shola has more quality. You're talking absolute nonsense here, like, Neesy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varadi Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 No surprise he scored from a cross, Benitez looks to have identified that's the kind of service the lad needs - keep getting crosses in to him and he will score goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Interesting that it came from a floated cross rather than one flashed across the 6-yard box. He doesn't seem sharp enough or quick enough to dart front post and touch it in. Put something like that floated for him to attack far post though and he might get the goals to keep us up.

nufcjb Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 He's learning. He's a kid but he learns and doesn't stop. Take this example. This is a guy who was booked inside 30 secs on his home debut, booked within 2 minutes in his next match and sent off in 15 minutes of his first full start at home. The same guy yesterday was booked in a full blooded derby only because he took off his shirt when he scored the equaliser. And had he not learnt from his past, he would have chased Martin Atkinson off the field after being adjudge to have made a foul, he would probably shoved his manager and team doctor when being told he was not well or simply, he could have done something stupid out of frustration in the game and got himself sent off. He's learning and he will get better. Cut the kid some slack. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Even just the sort of cross Barton would put in for Carroll. Doesn't have to be a great cross, just something he has a chance with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I always thought he was a bit chubby and overweight, TBH. He may be a bit too heavy and sluggish, to ever become a top player. But he certainly isn't fat Built like a brick shithouse. So happy for him to get the goal. Just a shame it wasn't the winner. I was down in the corner where he got double footed by the fan it was pretty hilarious. Sadly, he's not enough of a natural goal scorer. Unless he hits a mad run of form between now and the end of the season. I just don't see where our goals are going to come from? I don't think we'll score enough to stop up.

Norseman Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I love this maniac like. After that shoulder "foul", it looked like he was about to rip the arms off the ref and beat him to death with the severed limbs until he got a chance to think for a second Really hope he can get a few more important goals this season and help keep us up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John P Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I'm still angry about that shoulder barge 'foul.' It was a ridiculous decision, he was in down the left as well if I remember it rightly. I had a massive rant about it for a good few minutes after it happened before realising that I was in the house alone, and the cat wasn't listening.

Which is the complete opposite to Cissé, funnily enough. Cissé is great at attacking the low, drilled crosses before the defenders have time to react. I'd try and play them both now and have them in the box with balls played in much more often than we have done this season, should be goals coming from having two strikers that thrive on different sorts of deliveries.
