Optimistic Nut Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Mitrovic in 2-3 years time has 10 goals this season. Probably 1 season too soon to be the main striker as it's turning out. aye he's young a raw but he has the tools to play at the top level for sure. I hope we don't give up on him. If we can get past this season still in this division then I can see him being brilliant. So much potential. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
U2 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Yeah, that's just it. He flatters to deceive. Looks really tide and useful when he wins a header or plays a simple pass but he lacks so badly at doing the stuff strikers need to do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 I don't see where the potential is in him tbh. He's a 21 year old making his way in a poor team and is getting into positions to score goals. It'll come. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 I thought he was supposed to be good at headers before he came to NUFC? His headers have been more like that of a defender intentionally heading over their own goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Repeat every week: Clearly a talented lad, could well be a goalscorer in time, but he isn't good enough for us to be relying upon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallsendmag Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 A non scoring centre forward isn't what we need at the moment. If he was at a West Ham or a Stoke you could say give it time and hope the goals will come sooner or later. We don't have that luxury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klaus Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 He is a player with good potential, who is playing in a team that (usually) creates few chances and in low in confidence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can get past this season still in this division then I can see him being brilliant. So much potential. Absolutely agree, he's 21 he's only going to improve. I thought he was really good today, had one very difficult chance. He's lost a bit of confidence in front of goal, but that;s going to happen at his age That's in absolutely no way a guarantee. Players regress at NUFC with a hell of a lot more regularity than they improve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 His all round game is pretty decent, holds the ball well at time, and has decent distrubution, he's just lacking confidence in front of goal, he needs time to develop, we just don't have that time at the moment, we need another striker (that isn't Cisse) to learn from and so the pressure can be relieved from him. Hopefully he gets a goal, and goes on a run. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players regress at NUFC with a hell of a lot more regularity than they improve It's not a guarantee but it's a pretty likely I'd say. I think relying on him now is foolishness, but I feel like at 21 years old he's likely to improve as a footballer Like I said in my previous post, he might become a goalscorer. But if I was putting money on it I could easily see him simply never making it, being sold for about half of what we paid for him, to someone on the continent, and to be basically forgotten.

BONTEMPI Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 If he had pace we might have been onto a winner. But if he needs that much help we should have looked elsewhere. Should go all out for Remy. But I highly doubt he'd even entertain the idea of coming back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Bailey Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Good enough to lead the line next season with Armstrong?? With two wingers (proper wingers) I think he is worth a go myself. Strong enough to boss some CHs around in the championship imo... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughesy Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Played very well today - as people have pointed out, he just looks a bit low on confidence in relation to his finishing at the moment. Bags of potential. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
