Guest firetotheworks Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Seemingly very low standards in here. The scale here is that he's third choice, out of position and he's performed admirably despite being constantly targeted for their attacks. Not sure what the problem is. Well he certainly wasn't constantly targeted. He had a good, solid game after a poor start. Nothing more. He certainly wasn't superb as many are saying. Well agree to disagree. I thought they were constantly down that side first half, then didn't bother second half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Had a good game overall. Started off a bit shaky but his confidence grew quickly. On the ball he was a different planet to Dummett, our first choice LB. <Some standard line about expecting Roberto Carlos here> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliottman Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 He was solid second half and comfortable on the ball playing against pretty much nothing. The way some are going on about him on here you would think he'd just shown he was the next Roberto Carlos or Paulo Maldini. Yee p*ssed? No I've only had 4 cans. You're posting like you're pissed?

Benwell Lad Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 On the very limited game time he's had so far that was his best performance. You can tell he has played at a classy level. It's difficult to criticise him in any way considering he's about our 10th choice defender and won't see much more game time unless another defensive crisis crops up.

Aye they targeted him in the first half got a bit of joy but Naughton and Sanches were the main attackers and they had nothing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I thought he had a really good game, especially second half. He was the selection I was most worried about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinoasprilla Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 looks slow and maybe thats why Rafa didnt play him last season. Liked his calmness on the ball looks like Zidane compared to Dummett Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 He looks and plays like an experienced player, against other opponents his pace and ability would've been tested by thought he was quite good today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbnufc Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Grew into the game. Was dodgy at the start and looked suspect positionally, especially given his (lack of) pace but he got better as it went on. Was on of the better players 2nd half Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hvuge Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 He looks and plays like an experienced player, against other opponents his pace and ability would've been tested by thought he was quite good today. This. I also think playing behind Murphy didn’t help Gamez at all. Murphy did not track back and help his fullback, better when Atsu came on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Loved the bit down in our corner where it looked like he had nowhere to turn but to put it for a throw, and he flicked it to a team mate with the outside of his foot to help us play the ball out.

Aye, I was going to mention it but I couldn't be bothered to explain it in English Classy moment from him Dummett would have kicked it outside of the stadium.

wormy Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 That through ball to Atsu. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Looks really slow. But comfortable on the ball, plays off both feet and seemed to know when to stick or twist. Some really crisp passing high up the pitch in Swansea's half. He seems like a reliable and solid backup option. Nothing more, nothing less. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 I thought he was excellent today, under rated because he came in from the cold, he was nowhere near the team, put on the opposite flank and locked it down, great link up with Atsu when he came on.

Conjo Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Looked like a 40 year old with his running, but his technique and head is still solid. The performance wasn't that impressive, but measured against the expectations before the match I am positively surprised. I wouldn't be worried if we see him starting again.

Nobody Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 One of the best LB perfomances ever I think it's fair to say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Showed a skill level which Dummett doesn't possess. I'd like to see if he can maintain it. I'd worry if we had someone with alot all of pace up against him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd worry if we had someone with alot all of pace up against him. I think at his age he's probably come up against a few pacey wingers, and I think he's probably smart enough to adapt his game accordingly. His through ball to Atsu suggested he doesn't need to get too far forward in order to be penetrative. No idea how much he'll be involved this season, but I won't be as concerned seeing his name on the sheet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Away Day Gadgie Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 In the short term Gamez can only get better can't he? He's played very little football in the last couple of years so he was bound to be a bit rusty. I'd expect him to be a lot sharper in the next game.

Consortium of one Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Play him in the right spots and he can do the job, I reckon. He doesn't have pace but can make up for it with composure and guile. He'd be exposed against pacier wingers but I guess that's what Dummet will be for.
