HawK Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Freekick was Solano-esque. Surprised no-one has picked up on MOTD's caption though, that's why I posted the pic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Was more like a Robert freekick than Solano like. Not just because it was left footed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Aye, Nobby used to dink it over the wall, Robert was the thunderbastard. And then there was Big Al. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Don't think I've ever been more wrong about a signing. We'd have been dead and buried without him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Ahmed Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Happy to admit I was wrong about him, expected him to be average at best BUT overall he has been class, still frustrates at times as he holds onto to the ball too long, though I prefer that to someone that doesn't even try to take players on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Never really been a fan but if we stay up, he will have played a huge part. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Don't think I've ever been more wrong about a signing. We'd have been dead and buried without him. Never met him, he's never read the forum, but feel like I owe him an apology even if he hadn't been has productive as he has been lately, he tries hard and cares which counts for a lot. Still think his decision making is insane but that's okay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 The main thing that winds me up is when he attempts to cut inside and loses. But then again, when it works he's likely to score a brilliant goal, so he has to try it a couple of times every game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Was more like a Robert freekick than Solano like. Not just because it was left footed Similar to Robert's free kick against Liverpool Aye, that was the one it reminded me of. I always thought the goalie shouldn't let the Robert one in. Townsend's was unstoppable IMO, even with the dodgy instep from the keeper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Hold my hands up. No problem for that, glad that l am proven wrong as it means we have chance to survive isnt it? That said, Townsend prior to Rafa is rlly shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 He's such a winger it's refreshing. A proper one. Totally agree. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyman Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Hold my hands up. No problem for that, glad that l am proven wrong as it means we have chance to survive isnt it? That said, Townsend prior to Rafa is rlly s***. This applies to most of our players, no? But yeah, I'm glad the lad has proven me wrong as well. Was about to rip my hair off at one stage, but decided I didn't want his hairstyle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Don't think I've ever been more wrong about a signing. We'd have been dead and buried without him. Same here, hands held up on this one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Not me. I said from the very beginning that he was a great signing and would be a top player for us.* *may not be true Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujpest doza Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Aye, I've got to hold my hands up as I thought it was a poor signing but he's been outstanding and that goal he scored today was an absolute beaut, reminded me of one Robert scored against Liverpool from almost exactly the same position. That was Munez. HA!!! I thought about how they'd used that in GOAL !!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 I love it when he comes in-field when the play is on the opposite wing, and makes that darting last-man run as Cisse occupies the defenders. It still hasn't quite come off for us yet but I think with time it could become a lethal weapon with his pace and decent finishing to have a run on goal 1 on 1 with the keeper.

Tisd09 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Happy with how it's gone so far. Very encouraging. Very frustrating when he loses it cutting on the inside but like someone said above its likely now and again reap dividends. Hopefully rafa will get to work on him and get him to use it as a feint so he can turn and run into the box on his right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
