AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 When he plays on the left he needs the ball threaded inside for him. Which we can’t do when we don’t really have good attacks and Bruno isn’t playing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 The lack of a right foot is crazy. pass, cross, shot. He won’t do it. The left is hardly a wand either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mighty__mag Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 (edited) Think the thread title needs a change. Missgoal Almiron 👍🏻 And for Chris Wood thread. Miss Wood 👍🏻 Joe Willock thread.

OverThere Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Could we not try him on the left? He may cross the ball then although no chance of a cut inside and shoot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Thought he was our best player today tbh. I'm now firmly in the camp of "if we only sign one more, make it a CM." We'll get an upgrade eventually, you'd hope, but he's a good player and is improving. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand it, especially with Wood struggling to get involved. First time Almiron popped up on the left he created a perfect chance that was well defended.

HWTL Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Cant understand how any professional football isn't 2 footed, obviously most will have a dominant foot but should still be able to use both. Always baffled me how some players just never seem to train with there weaker foot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Almiron also lacks confidence. Even on his left he hesitates and takes unnecessary touches in dangerous areas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're desperate for more goals and creativity from RW and he offers very little apart from good pressing and running. He's so one footed it's unreal for a PL player.

Geogaddi Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 He is the least of our problems really, it’s having the likes of Murphy ,Wood and Longstaff in the squad that needs addressing more urgently. Almiron is a decent squad player for us to have . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he was his usual self gets into great positions, but then cuts back every time. At the end of the day his end product is just not good enough. With Wilson back it will be him or Isak on the right hand side, unless he changes to a 442 or 523 Edited September 3, 2022 by et tu brute Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He lacks the composure and decision making at times that would make all the difference for him on those stats, however if you cant see what he brings to this side then im not sure what to tell you - one of the best engines I've seen on any of our players and follows the game plan down to the letter. Just a shame for him that when we are struggling for goals he tends to take a fair bit of the frustration as hes a forward hes expected to score but for me he makes up for those short comings with his overall output.. he'll be a very effective sub to see out and protect leads in future when we can add a new RW. At this stage in our development of this squad hes a fine player to have around, we could do alot worse. Edited September 3, 2022 by Nine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
