nemtizz Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Shame that one where he flicked it over the keeper didn't come off. Aye, great defending though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andymc1 Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 It seems to be popular to hate the bloke recently but he played well tonight. I think playing with a partner up top would help but as a lone striker he had a good game today alongside a good assist. Big Als verdict may be right talking about his overall season but on tonight's performance is harsh. 22 year old bloke who has plenty of talent that isn't going to be realised here, as much as I want him to do well.

jimmymag Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Watching him live must make a huge difference because, seriously, he's the most un-athletic professional footballer I've ever seen. He makes Mickey Quinn look quick! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 He had a good game, they didn't enjoy playing against him. First time for a while I felt there is a good player in there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmymag Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 I thought their centre half absolutely dominated Mitro, so much so that he resorted to his embarrassing play acting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very surprised to read that. Dunk is obviously a very solid player but I thought Mitro held his own generally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ujpest doza Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 He had a very good good game I thought. Shame how the time wasting in the corner panned out. Sometimes better to just pass and move and retain possession rather than waste time in the corner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

themanupstairs Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 What a bunch of fannies. He played well tonight, better than Murphy has of late. He was at the center of everything good we did going forward. The result is a kick in the bollocks, but making it like Mitro was the reason we didn't win is just stupid.

Cronky Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 His lack of pace will always limit him, but he did his job well last night. He also didn't look like a red card waiting to happen. Hopefully he's grown up a bit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgarve Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 He worked hard. But his level of fitness and speed is probably equivalent to what sholas is currently. Not being funny but it's easy to stick someone up there to work the defenders. Needs to show a lot more, zero movement with him up there regardless of pace. Doesn't make intelligent runs either. Don't think he had a shot all game and that is an indictment of how effective he is Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallsendmag Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Put himself about and did a few decent things last night but a striker with little goalscoring threat is not what we need. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallsendmag Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Played well yesterday, worked really hard Worked hard but sadly for him strikers are judged ultimately on how many goals they score and he comes up short in that department. Expect Rafa to try to offload him in the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest neesy111 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Put himself about and did a few decent things last night but a striker with little goalscoring threat is not what we need. This is my view as well. Did the target man job really well but offered little in terms of being a striker for goal threat. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 I thought he was excellent. If Gayle was playing we probably would have created less and scored more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sempuki Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Fair play to him last night - one of his best games imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistle17 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Gives us a great outlet to go long and play off him, which is ideal when you don't have the quality to break down teams in certain stages of the game. Hope he starts on Monday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 He played well, but it was the same story as last season at the end of the day. Him and Ayoze produced 0 goals after 90 mins. You can put it down to bad luck if you like, but both of them are unlucky in too many games over a season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Know better than what? He tries hard but if you're relying on him you're set to fail. He put in a shift, got a crucial assist, didn't sit on his finger the bulk of the game waiting for a chance to come along like Gayle has been doing since January. He was excellent tonight in the role of a target man who harried the defenders and created space for others, it's not a coincidence that that was one of our best displays in a long while, despite the result. Quality that. Criticising our best player for being injured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Didn't seem like he wanted to, or wasn't being allowed to jump by Rafa in the first half, he was much more effective in the second when he started challenging (and winning) balls in the air. Good game overall, still don't want to give up on him, if Murphy had played like he did last night people would be wanking themselves right off.
