Rod Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 If that was Joelinton missing those chances he would have been strung up on the millennium bridge. Joelinton doesn't get into those positions I had a lot of time for Gayle for that very reason, he is instinctively a goal scorer, but I don't think he's the player he was. Looks slower and not fully fit, and in truth, never does. I just don't have any faith in him any more, I think he's just winding down his career and picking up a nice wage. Tron, I love your football knowledge, I really do. I watched the full game and Gayle actually made those chances (that he missed). Those chances haven't been happening all season for one simple reason, JOELINTON. It is no coincidence that we looked so much better with a striker who knows what a striker is supposed to do. This is Gayles' probably 3rd start of the season and it's March. The Joelinton lovers have said give him more time. All I ask is give Gayle more game time and we will be fine. Keep Joelinton on the bench or at home (that's how I rate him as a striker). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I've been wanting someone else to share the striker burden with Joelinton all season, so I hope Gayle does get a run in the side. I think it will be good for Joelinton as much as anything else, but am not hopeful of Gayle being fit for a run of games. But he is a player I really liked when we signed him, so will be interested to see what he can bring to the table. I didn't see today's game so not really in a position to pass judgement. I still think there's a player in Joelinton FWIW, just don't think he's ready yet for the Premier. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Joelinton had about 28 games, scoring 1 goal. Gayle should start the games to the end of the season. Gayle can't be worse than Joelinton. Apparently Gayle won a few headers today. He was unlucky not to score. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 Weird the defence of Gayle like. People have been calling for him to play saying he’s a natural goalscorer, etc. We pick him and he shows anything but, but ‘at least he’s getting into the positions’. Was the same in the 17-18 season run-in and been the same as his few starts this season. Also, Joelinton might have more of a chance if he’s going to have Almiron closer to him and two wingers.

Yeah let's not forget that. Think both are true fwiw, Gayle clearly a more natural central striker in terms of his positioning but Joelinton has been hung out to dry the whole season up top all alone.

Aye and we did well in the 2017/18 run in, no? I remember two home games in that run-in (Southampton & Huddersfield?) where he missed at least 4-5 chances like yesterday. It was the likes of Kenedy, Diame, even Slimani in a couple of the late wins that dragged us to safety. He scored 3 in 20 games in the run-in that season.

Guest Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 There’s nothing to suggest we wouldn’t have if Joelinton had played there though? Now we look safe we’d be better off giving someone who may turn out better with more support now than persist with someone who we know isn’t Premier League level.

mrmojorisin75 Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 lascelles offside goal was after the sending off, only thing i can recall before the sending off was the triple save it's semantics anyway, they created fuck all completely agree but i thought they looked a better outfit than us which is fairly standard they'd have beat us without the red, no doubt in my mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
