Jacob "The Juice" Murphy


Recommended Posts

Thought he provided a bit of spark and drive when he came on? Team full of safe and sideways merchants, or players that just want to pump it long. He’s a bit different, at least. Although he did fuck up trying to force it at times.

Ruined every attack he got involved in :lol:

Same. Offers something positive until we get ASM back in the side.

I doubt ASM is in a rush to get back to this shitshow :lol:

Same, he's still a bit rough around the edges, but he's generally been decent this season.

Nowhere near PL standard, don't even think he was the best Murphy in that Norwich side was he? And cost a fair sum from a pitiful budget that summer

 

What are scouts were thinking watching him play when Maddison was playing for Norwich at the time

 

Maddison cost double Murphy and was never going to end up with us.

 

Murphy needs to play in his team because he has mobility. At least tries to be positive, which you can’t say about many in the team. He will try to do something other than pass the ball backwards, often making good runs in behind that his teammates never see....

He's preferable to a moron like Hendrick playing wide. He isn't that good though, certainly nothing to worry about for PL defences on a regular basis - never has been, and likely never will. I bet there are dozens of Championship wingers that you could stick in the side that will try and be positive with the ball, doesn't mean they'll be any good at doing so. 

 

How well did he get on with his loan spells WBA, and Sheff Wed?

He got 9 goals for Sheffield Wednesday last season which is a decent return.

 

I’m just saying that he should be given a chance and a run in the team right now when we clearly lack anybody with some form of ability on the ball

Thats partly due to lack of options.  5 at the back then 2 midfielders sitting just in front of them.  Anyone who wants to play forward is going to struggle.  Id  give him a go until fraser or Billy heedband are back.  Almiron cannot play on the right

If you’re a left-back, there’s no doubt he’d be one of the easiest opponents you’ll face. All he’s got is knock it past on the outside, try and get round him and cross it and he’s average at that. He’s not tricky, only got one foot, doesn’t go inside or outside...so predictable. I like him but not a Premier League player.

Not watching today but he's way below what's required at Premier League Level. It's one thing looking good against League 2 plodders in the 2nd Round of the League Cup or out on loan in the Championship but he's not cut out for it at this level.
