Disco Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 He's been himself, not sure why anyone expected anything else. For every good cross there's 7 or 8 shite ones or runs infield ignoring passes and losing it. At the same time he looks to get on the ball and doesn't hide so it's hard to have a pop. The most baffling thing is we bought him to play LW where he hasn't played for years, just like Thauvin before him it makes absolutely zero sense.

TRon Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 His defensive effort was atrocious Which is strange because I assumed one of the reasons we were desperate to sign him and Shelvey was to provide some British grit which was lacking in the French tarts we've been sending back over the border at huge discounts.

thenige Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Awful first touch as well. Would probably do okay if he had any sort of movement around him mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ndegwa Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Never really rated him, even his fierce shot only finds the target once every 11 years, his stepovers are so pointless (not even used to beat a man, just...random) and as others have said, his first touch is shocking. I like him though, he tries, he's direct and some of his randomness comes off from time to time. In a half-decent side, his unpredictability would be an asset. In a relegation battle, he just isn't what we need...especially for the price the club paid. More than enough quality and pace for the Championship though, could see him thriving at that level. For that reason, I hope he stays if we go down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 He's not particularly unpredictable. He has quick feet but it's always with a view to cutting in left and trying to get a shot off every time - which is good in some ways but Norwich players just saw it coming time and again.

vicente_14 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 The shitty, pointless step over he does when running with the ball. No change of direction, no drop of the shoulder, just a stupid step over thrown in for no reason. F**k off with that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Not the worst for us but his greed was revolting. He turns down so many good passing options. Still, he's English. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexumaster Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I feel sick about how right I was about him, said he was overpriced, said he always cuts in. It's mind-boggling how badly our "80m" was spent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 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. Agreed. That still has them as two of our better players tbf. And now we are getting relegated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 The funny thing about this guy is that there is so much complaint about his performance, but he still managed to find a way to produce something, with the assist yesterday. Moussa Sissoko has not scored this season. His last assist was on the 6th of December 2015. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I didn't think he was that bad on Saturday, good assist for the goal and he at least tried to make something happen. Yes his quality wasn't great, but he still managed to pull us back into the game from nowhere. There were many more worse performances than his, at least he shows for the ball, tries to do something and doesn't hide for 90 minutes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Oh aye, I don't think he's awful, he's just not great and not a good way to spend the money we had. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggs Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 He's ridiculously greedy is my main fault with him, he's the main reason Janmaat has been so ineffective going forward lately IMO as he doesn't link up with him much at all like Sissoko did. Still a pretty dangerous player though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

themanupstairs Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 He refused to run down the wing and cross with his right foot so many times, electing to cut inside and do fuck all. Yet the goal came from a right-footed cross. Is this guy that thick or what? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinport53 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 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. So true Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Pinkman Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Don't even particularly rate him, but he's still 10 times the winger Sissoko is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
