KaKa Posted April 13, 2024 Share Posted April 13, 2024 (edited) Qualifying for Europe would be so big for the likes of Anderson, Miley, Minteh and others staying and getting game time and development next season. Fingers crossed. Edited April 13, 2024 by KaKa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted April 13, 2024 Share Posted April 13, 2024 Just needed to sit further back once he understood the game better. Never a doubt from this end. His additional strength he's added this last year is a bonus, coupled with his tight space control and balance, he's a fucking nightmare with the ball at his feet.

joeyt Posted April 13, 2024 Share Posted April 13, 2024 He reminds me of a young Ross Barkley for some reason. Great game today Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted April 13, 2024 Share Posted April 13, 2024 He's class. Great engine. Great feet. An absolute beast physically. Really solid footballing brain. Perhaps not the quickest sprinter, fair, but he's as reliable as you can get in terms of application. He's playing in Joelintons position and it suits him perfectly. Got a bit of the shithouse in him too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawK Posted April 13, 2024 Share Posted April 13, 2024 On current form and fitness it's got to be Anderson ahead of Longstaff if it's ever a choice that needs making, squad health permitting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theregulars Posted April 13, 2024 Share Posted April 13, 2024 Well played. Justifying his presence in the team. Actually bringing some things we’ve lacked without Joelinton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted April 13, 2024 Share Posted April 13, 2024 Can’t pick a fault with his game today, had some lovely touches on the left in the penalty area, was very aggressive and positive minded both in and out of possession and looks very comfortable playing with Barnes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt1892 Posted April 13, 2024 Share Posted April 13, 2024 I’ve said it on here before how he reminds me of James Milner in his style of play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted April 13, 2024 Share Posted April 13, 2024 The end of the season is his time and chance. So far he has taken it. Hope he can grow even more and bring goals on top of that as he’s capable of scoring. Once he gets a couple of goals he will grow even more in confidence and belief and feel like he properly belongs. Would be massive going into next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted April 13, 2024 Share Posted April 13, 2024 At the very least, he's shown this season he can be a Longstaff (with a far higher technical ceiling). He can be a lot more than that but his tactical discipline whenever he's played this year has been fairly impressive for an attack-minded player imo. Howe must love it, especially as he's a good athlete with a decent engine too. Let's just hope he can stay relatively injury free from now on.

M1tche Posted April 13, 2024 Share Posted April 13, 2024 Biggest compliment I can give to him is that since his return, he's plugged most of the big Joelinton shaped hole we had in our midfield Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted April 13, 2024 Share Posted April 13, 2024 Always struggle to place what type of player he is, but it's just dawned on me that he reminds me a lot of Ross Barkley and that's the type of player he could be, with the level depending on him.
