WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Along with Manquillo, it’s mad seeing there’s an improvement to be had when playing actual full backs at full back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amir_9 Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 (edited) I still think the opposition will be targeting his side of the pitch as long as he plays. He obviously needs to keep starting games until January but I think we need to buy an upgrade in January. I thought he was okay but certainly not amazing.

TRon Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Looked happy as fuck coming off the pitch at the end like, obviously meant a lot to him being part of the win. Good lad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khalidao Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Was a bit shaky at first but he grew in confidence as the match progressed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, I think it was Manquillo who lost his head a couple of times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Yes. He's got his confidence back. Needs to be alert with people coming in behind him but he's doing great. Better than Ritchie for sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

buzz Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 I think he'll be massively exposed about any decent team but still well worth playing him over Ritchie until we can get reinforcements. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 He's much improved since he came back and solid defensively, Burnley are quite physical team but he rose to the challenge, hopefully he can continue building on it and make the left-back spot his.

He’s got all the athletic tools, just needs to clean up his game a bit. Prototype modern full back if he puts it together Always had that lad's back. Always maintained he just needed decent coaching and low and behold. He's class. What a shock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 I mean for a guy completely in the cold he held his own against McNeil and was more confident as the game moved on. Christ what could have been for him today if Howe was coaching him from day 1 seasons ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HWTL Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Still not convinced like, better than Richie but thought he got lucky in possession a few times and if lost it could have left us exposed, passing wasn't great and his throw ins are awful.

sh74 Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Yes we definitely need an upgrade at left back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Lascelles next to him looking nervy as fuck doesn't help either. He was OK today but still finding his feet and confidence. I'd stick with him. Think he be better with Fernandez next to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaqen Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Makes me a bit nervous when he's on the ball and gets pressured, twists and turns and looks a bit shaky and nearly got caught out a couple of times today. Been good defensively though, albeit against the two least threatening sides in the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Didn't see the match yesterday as i was out for my work night out but first thought this morning is come in here and see the reaction to how he's done. Really happy for him, hope it continues. It's going to be tough the next 4-5 games, so lets allow him to grow & learn without getting on his back if mistakes happen.

TRon Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Surprisingly he's actually been more impressive defensively than going forward. Been pretty solid in general. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
