AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 He’s a fine player, not as bad as people think. If we could control possession more I’d almost pick him just for attacking headers. The Schar successor has to provide some kind of aerial threat IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Thought he was fine today, considering he's barely played this season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Was looking for his thread funnily enough. I think he's fine when called upon and has dealt with being benched really well considering he's our captain. Have absolutely no problem with him staying here as a squad player. Pretty sure his family are well settled here also Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 I'd be tempted to leave him in the side. He's a genuine threat from set pieces and we need goals. Na, fuck that. Bring Schar back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myleftboot Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 I think he did well as long as he doesn’t try to play football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikky Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Did anyone notice in stoppage time when Man City had them corners - he and Maxi came to take the ball from the corner but Lascelles stood on Maxi - Maxi proceeded to make a meal or it and got absolutely bollocked by Lascelles to the extent he got up right away Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 (edited) You're right @STM. Schar and Botman are fucking wank at setplays. I'd be tempted to play Lascelles in home games against the likes of Wolves. He does have leadership qualities, gets players and the crowd motivated. Botman and Burn can have a rest too if needed.

Myleftboot Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Thought it was great when ASM must have had his foot stood on near the end of the match and went to go off the pitch and lascelles told him to get up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toon25 Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Aye, was very good and knew where to apply a bit of pressure on that cunt Haaland. Proved me wrong today and I love that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Boyo Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 Thought he played well today. Normally can be caught out and makes wrong decisions. His attributes did show more so today. He may have earned his spot for now for another game with Schar possibley ready to come off the bench if needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 (edited) Did really well, I thought. Fair play, I thought he was going to be the weak link. But he was our best defender on the day and proved me well and truly wrong. Edited March 4, 2023 by Lush Vlad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaus Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 We all knew his strengths and weaknesses. He is a good leader/strong/good for set penis, but on the other is clumsy and lacks confidence on the ball. Glad to hear he had a good game, considering the opposition.

TRon Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 I thought it was a nice touch that he was given the captain's armband again even when he's not figured much this season. Says a lot about his character and the respect he commands in the dressing room. He's not a polished CB by any means, but he doesn't ever hide. And he's a bit of a hard cunt which should never be underestimated given where he plays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cafella Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Btw he’s improved massively on the ball. He’s still not premier league standard with the ball at his feet but he’s come on massively. Not easy to try and play out from the back vs Citeh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 (edited) Disagree with early bit there. He is Premier League standard with the ball at his feet, but not just one that you'd expect at a top club. He could easily fit in any defence of the clubs down the bottom half of the league. We probably need not only a fresh pair of legs in the team but also fresh minds. Different approach and leadership just to shake things up. Trippier's form has been declining and perhaps his control of the lads as well. Lascelles has given his fair share of commitment down the years. Even got into bust ups with teammates so he is commanding for sure. Schar and Lascelles worked well last season so thats a positive. Needs time with Botman and Burn perhaps.

NUFC91 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Said it before..Lascelles is by far the best Header of the ball at the club, granted Schar Botman and Burn are better players I wish they could attack ball with his conviction. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holloway Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 He's always ready to step in when needed and he did so yesterday and came through it very well. He's an asset to the squad, has an enjoyable air of menace about him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy84 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Kind of player that will do quite well away at City but be absolutely minging against the likes of Wolves and Forest Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gawalls Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 I’ve been proven a little wrong on him yesterday and glad I have - I said a while ago we should move him on and somebody tore into me big style, seems they were right to do so because as others have said he’s the one bastard who can head the ball and he also has great leadership qualities as well as being a bit of a hard one it seems.
