Joelinton: will not play against Everton (Howe)


Recommended Posts

92% pass success from 25 passes, seems high for a striker given he has the least time on the ball before being closed down than anybody?

If our front 3 became Almiron, Rondon and Joelinton in the old Perez role. Sheesh. We’d be potentially deadly. Think this guy really has the makings of a really good football player and in the right setup. He’s actually playing some incredible balls through.

Front three of Carroll, Joelinton and Almiron wouldn't be bad either on the few occasions Carroll would actually be fit. Then you have Maximin and Gayle to throw in there as well as which isn't a disaster tbh.

I feel really sorry for him, actually. Clearly a good player and has a really decent touch, shields the ball well... all of it in the centre circle because of how woefully set up we are. Poor cunt would probably have more fun back in the favelas cos playing up top for us under Bruce looks fucking awful.

He's better than Perez?

 

Never said that. Just think under Rafa those 3 would have been something else over time.

 

Certainly doesn't look it but you have the Bruce factor to consider.

Yep. Rondon would be shite in this set up.

where is the evidence he is any good. cant win a header, cant hold up the ball, cant pass, cant score with the easiest of headers.

 

i know he's playing amongst shit and has no service but why do people keep saying he's obviously got something about him?

I think his hold up play is quite good. It's the fact we can't get him anywhere near the box which is frustrating. Can barely remember him having a shot this season except for his goal

and those 2 headers that he had under no pressure, 6 yards out, in front of goal. neither even came close to the target.

:thup:

 

He's going to get slaughtered by the likes of Souness though, and he looks like he might be getting a bit sick of it all.

Yep. The likes of Stelling on Twitter tonight trying to defend Bruce by saying Rafa has Rondon up front. Well so too did Pulis & Pardew and he found himself in the same situation as Joelinton now. Carroll came on today for him and there was no difference either.
