Minhosa Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I was massively against signing him but I've been happier with him that I thought I'd be. Likening him to Cabella is harsh imho. He tends to do one/two stepovers and then look to deliver early into the box. Cabella never got to the delivery stage. I think he's probably frustrated that he's not got much to aim at in there if Mitro's not caught up with the play. Jury is out massively from my perspective but, overall, he's been a bit more of a hit than a miss to date. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiLvOR Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I like his crosses, they're usually quite dangerous. Hopefully we can make more of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 His stepovers don't look great, but they're more effective because he can genuinely go both directions and be effective. Cabella just does them and carries on the same way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_NUFC Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 That bit of space that Wini / Janmeet played him into on the right wing and he looked completely off their wavelength was a bit worrying, but you could see the former player reprimanding him for not reading it, so hopefully he develops a connection with Janmaat as he plays there more. I would still switch him and Sissoko, as the latter has only ever looked good on the right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cabella just does them and carries on the same way. Yep - the fact he is genuinely two footed makes a big difference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 There is a reason why this fucker was rotting in Tottenhm's reserves, had miles of space in the last few minutes and he just kept giving the ball away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Like your average winger, very frustrating and dodgy with his decision-making. At least he tried to be direct. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 He does that thing Ben Arfa used to do, only he keeps on running and ends up on the other wing for some reason. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Did anyone really think he wouldn't be, other than those who like to delude themselves over every single signing we make? We basically paid £4m for the player and another £8m for 10 England caps. Pretty much the same deal with Shelvey. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
