Guest godzilla Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 got a bad feeling this kid is gonna become the scapegoat for brucey and f***ing thicko followers. I like the look of the lad but at the end of the day he will be judged on the number of assists and goals. Pressure is on him and under Bruce that may be a problem. He should be judged by how he plays, especially when in his better position. He be judged on goals and assists as are all forward players. That’s just the way it is and that’s why he’s already being criticised by the likes of Shearer and some others. Unfortunately that may be a problem with the manager he is currently under.

LIES Is that you Chopra? "Go enjoy yourself son" "do what you do best" "Give them ell" "you score today son" "keep your head up" "what the fuck is going on.. win the ball and put it in the net" All clearly qualify as instructions.

Happinesstan Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 as if he will even say anything to him. "See if you can get a little higher up the pitch", would be my guess. Then he'll whinge about his lack of defensive responsibilities, after we get violently violated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chopey Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Quotes from Bruce saying they've been working on getting Almiron higher up the pitch. Has a Pardew converting Tiote into a box to box midfielder feel about it. Cant wait to see how this pans out... so it'll be 5-3----------------2 going forward then instead of 5-4----------1 We play with 11 players? When you quote formations the keeper is a given so you leave him out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 This boy is a such a strange and enjoyable player to watch. He looks like a small child and runs like he is about to fall down with his limbs flailing all over, but somehow manages to be the fastest player on the pitch and have better stamina than anyone. In the 85th or so minute of the match, he was sprinting the entire length of the pitch to push the attack forward and protect Krafth. Brilliant effort. We have been saying this for some time, but it he starts to add the quality I believe he has to his sheer force of will, the player will be special.

There was one moment where he ran the full length on a counter attack towards the end and we lost the ball, and the next thing he's back by the corner flag helping double up with Krafth. It was insane. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 The lad's graft is absolutely incredible. Take away all the context and circumstances, when he does finally hit the back of the net I hope it's an absolutely glorious moment for him; he's a cracking player and his attitude is tremendous.

Infinitely Content Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Love him. Atsu was the main attacking threat from midfield today, but Almiron's willingness to chase, defend and apply pressure was superb to watch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
