johnny36 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Ive said it the last 2 games his throw ins are thrown to the opposition. First goal tonight came from his throw in. He had another throw in in the 2nd half that led to their disallowed goal. This is all basic ..Throw the ball to a player wearing the same jersey as you or dont take them at all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, a professional footballer who can't take a throw in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 It’s not just him - our whole team clearly have no instructions or routines. Outrageous the way we turn the ball over at throw-ins. Didn’t Bruce criticise Sean Longstaff for taking a quick throw earlier this season? Meaning that dithering, waiting for teammates to be marked and turning the ball over is... by design?

jackyboy Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Trouble is some of our players don't seem like they want to show themselves to receive the throw in. They have a bit of space then turn their back like saying don't give it to me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmesy Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 He showed a couple of glimpses last night that suggest there's a decent player in there - a couple of sharp turns, some good runs and positions taken up. I didn't know anything about him before he joined so i've just thought we've bought a pup up to now, but he's clearly just been Bruced.....badly. Poor fucker!

Lush Vlad Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Am I the only person here who doesn't hate him? I think there is definitely a player there, just a shit situation to be in, he's been thrown to the wolves. I'd like to see him under a diff manager I think he looks crap. But then again, so do most of our players at the minute. So quite a lot of the ones who have previously shown some ability get a free pass. As do the new signings, on the whole. Hendrick looks dreadful, mind. Shelvey, Carroll and Joelinton are the only ones where I do understand the regular criticism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 I don’t hate him, he was just 100% the wrong player to be getting to play under Bruce. Was crying out for a 27+ year old LB who’s played in the league for a while or resigning Willems. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny36 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Hopefully he can build up an understanding with ASM. Why they dont go for Willems is strange.. especially with the predicament we are in now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there is definitely a player there, just a shit situation to be in, he's been thrown to the wolves. I'd like to see him under a diff manager i dont hate any of our our players apart from shelvey. i really dislike joelinton for his lack of effort but dont hate him i dont even dislike hendrick - he's just a nothing player.

I think there is definitely a player there, just a shit situation to be in, he's been thrown to the wolves. I'd like to see him under a diff manager Nah I think he's a lot better than what he's shown so far. A "modern" full-back is probably the most complex position on the field to get a grips of; a lot is expected positionally in attack and defence but he's been hung out to dry by our archaic /clueless coaching methods and drills.

I think there is definitely a player there, just a shit situation to be in, he's been thrown to the wolves. I'd like to see him under a diff manager Same. He’s been poor but I reckon new management could do something for him. He’s the sort of profile of full-back we’ve been crying out for for years. Just needs to start performing.

This is all basic ..Throw the ball to a player wearing the same jersey as you or dont take them at all He went to the other side of the pitch to take a throw in? Wasn't it Hayden with the throw in? Just remember Murphy being the one to not control it and losing the ball though. He's at fault for the goal, not so much Lewis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty66 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Absurd the amount of times we don't play it back to the throw in taker. He's a free man and a simple 1/2 helps keep the ball. Sunday league stuff and we don't do it anywhere near enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's evaluate after a year (or less) under Rafa. I think we'd see a player that played with confidence because he's been coached up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantail Breeze Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 He’s been dreadful, but he’ll get a completely clean slate under whoever replaces Bruce. Just hope his development won’t suffer too much in the long run having this donkey in charge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny36 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 On that Spurs documentary , theres was an episode, thimk it was when Norwich knocked Spurs out of the Cup on pens when Dier went mad afterwards Showed a few clips of the game and Lewis was shown and he looked decent albeit from a few short clips Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazarus Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Theres definately a good player in there. People often dont seem to realise the influence a poor manager can have on individual performance, whether its football, sales, admin or whatever. Weve never really seen Lewis playing well as our only benchmark has been his performances this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can think of a former manager (and hopefully a not so distant future one!) who would make a right player out of him! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
