Conjo Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 8 minutes ago, et tu brute said: I just don’t get the current rave about him.. Yes he doesn’t lose the ball as much, but he’s been directly involved in two goals in the last two games. The one against Leicester and the second goal today (yes Shelvey did the back pass but the ball to him should have been played back to the centre half). As an attacking influence he is still virtually non existent also. In addition to winning a lot of duels, tackles & working hard, he got the ball out of tight areas under pressure and passed the ball on to a team mate several times which were good opportunities for the team to build an attack - not his fault we only have one or two other players in the squad capable of doing the same to build as the attack broke down 1 or 2 passes afterwards.

Sorry disagree, couldn’t give a shit that he’s tackling more or working harder. I look at what he’s producing in the final third and he’s doing virtually nothing. When he actually starts doing that then I will give him credit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you reckon he's being asked to be our target man or creative player like? He's been asked to do a job and he's doing it, despite being asked to do a number nine role and a left winger role before which evdiently were both absolutely incorrect. Joelinton is undoubtedly one of our current best performers and and for me one of the first 3/4 on the teamsheet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a reason we are in our current position. Problem is going to take three or four transfer windows to resolve. Fortunately we have the owners to make that possible now.

Okay... It’s got fuck all to do with this performance, it’s two and a half year of absolute shite. Just because he’s making a few more tackles or working harder isn’t going to change that. By the way I think you need to watch how Kante actually plays his role if you want to make comparisons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems an incredibly stubborn view to me like and incredibly ignorant of the last say 6 games and actually all the shite coaching and strategic use of the lad in the last two years...

By far. I was Joelintons biggest critic, but I cant fault his game in his CM/Defensive Winger role. He has been something else. His offensive game isnt strong but he has been utterly fantastic defending. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Now is just a really odd time to be saying this stuff. The further he's up the pitch the worse he looks but despite that he's still been our best player over the past couple of month. Maybe he gets replaced in Jan, or the summer, or maybe his end product will improve as we do as a team (assuming we do). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
