Rich Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 I'm convinced he could play up front and be effective these days, he's a completely different player. Absolute animal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure tbh, I still think he doesn't strike the ball particularly well. Same issue with Almiron, both of them can find their way to the goal, just neither of them seem able just to drill one into the far corner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCK Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 For our American friends, Joelinton is like a Halfback once he gets running. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. I don't think he'd score many from there because there's no poacher instinct (most of his goals last season were bundled in from the left against high lines/on the counter), but he could definitely play a target man role of sorts imo; he's got the strength and close control for it. One of his best attributes is his adaptability to tactical instruction so I could see him play anywhere in the front six and do a job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with this, imagine Rice behind them protecting the back four and spraying passes to class in front of him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems the folks from back home and Recife are just as proud of Big Joe as we are! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LionOfGosforth Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Find myself wondering how widely-known his influence on us the past 18 months is globally. Do you have fans in Spain and Italy watching him in awe, like we do with the players at the big clubs in those leagues or is he under the radar in the global sense? I suspect it won't be long before those fans who don't know him are remarking "Fuck, wish he played for us". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
