Mattoon Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 He needs to not be tracking back so far, he's being asked to do far too much, he's acting like a box to box winger/wing back. Bruce will ruin him and the boo boys will blame him, wasted here unfortunately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 He so rarely receives the ball in even half decent situations. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUFC Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Should have done better with that shot, pretty much hit it straight at the keeper. Worrying that he doesn't seem to be able to finish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn’t the only one who fluffed his shots yesterday. I really like him and I think he’ll come good, unfortunately he’s got to work with Bruce’s genius tactics though.

joeyt Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Needs to be moved back to the left, he's ineffective on the right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Wasn’t he designed to play alongside Perez as like an inside forward, with fullbacks providing width? Both of them playing off Rondon. I thought he was more of a forward than a genuine wide player, don’t really know mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackyboy Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Feel really sorry for the guy and can see Bruce making him the fall guy. He is being asked to play a totally different roll to that under Rafa. He is playing far too deep and can't be expected to make runs with the ball and score goals starting from his own penalty box. He will soon be dropped in favour of lumping the ball up to Carrol and Joelinton Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paully Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 Poor lad has been Bruce'd! He looked quality playing off and around Rondon and Perez - he looks lost under this nugget of a manager! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 Poor lad has been Bruce'd! He looked quality playing off and around Rondon and Perez - he looks lost under this nugget of a manager!

jackyboy Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 A season ticket holder at Villa says that this would be typical Bruce. He says at Villa they had some really good young players but Bruce didn't know how to set the team up to get the best out of them so they finished up on the bench. Looks like more of the same Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like more of the same he looked dangerous under rafa from the moment he turned up looks like he's no idea what's going on now with this fool and his position on the pitch is ludicrous for the most part just hope he's not utterly ruined before we go down and sell him on, hopefully he gets a move to a decent club and does well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattoon Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Utterly, depressingly, predictable. The whole piss poor scenario is playing out just as anticipated from the moment this useless sack of kebab meat was hired as Rafa's replacement. Good luck getting out your own half vs Leicester without Almiron fat boy. Having said that there's probably no use for Almiron if we're going "back to basics" the instruction will be to hoof it and play the percentages.

Conjo Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Would be quite funny if the conclusion of Bruce's re-evaluation of playing on the front foot was to axe Almiron for someone else and that's it. Still don't understand who could possibly replace him unless he's going to risk ASM once again unless he's planning to play three central midfielders with Atsu behind Joelinton on top. Either way my pop corn will be ready for sunday evening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
