Elliot Anderson (now playing for Nottingham Forest)

[Vinny Green Balls]

Seriously like toddlers throwing a tantrum.

[Menace]

Ah man, this got more activity than the Krafth/Dubravka thread. Why is that?

[TheBrownBottle]

Oof … wasn’t great today, but not sure that the lad should be the target of ire tbh.  Some far more experienced heads played worse today for me

Fuck sake. I am fine with people steaming about the shit performance and shit tactics, which is deserved imo. But a few of you are so clownish with your need for scapegoats  with this. Anderson has looked a lot better in other games

Disagree I would say apart from the odd game, he hasn't really done too much. Young though so deserves next season certainly.

Yep. Thought he was trying to take responsibility and put himself about, at least.

[Sempiternal]

Young/inconsistent/out of position.

[Vinny Green Balls]

I know you would say that.

I agree for effort he certainly was and most of them are hopefully gone in the summer, well apart from Krath who has been given another year.

Thought he tried and had moments where it looked like he was going to do something but ultimately didn't have a great night. The midfield aside from Bruno didn't have what it takes tonight, but it's not something I'd judge him too harshly on, our front 3 were poor too.

[Ronaldo]

Not his fault he’s out of his depth tbh. He needs a season starting at a top Championship club to learn how to influence games but we’ve not had that luxury.

[buzza]

100% effort, just didn't quite come off... like most of our team tbf

[Holloway]

didn't help him ending up wide right with Kathy behind him, it's all a little perplexing

Let him play in midfield and he will show he's capable.

I’d personally have liked to have him out on loan. Not that we can, but would benefit him a great deal

He has some good attributes, but he seems to not have a clue what to do once he gets in the final third. His passing falls to pieces, he rarely looks like scoring. It's difficult to tell what his best position is tbh. He's strong and good at breaking up play, but he doesn't look like a natural DM, and he doesn't have the end product for a box to box or attacking midfielder. 

 

He's approaching 40 appearances for us now, you'd expect at least a little bit of output at this point.

50 according to the commentary today

[Newcastle Fan]

If we do reach the Europa League or Confrence league it will be good for him to play more in that type of competition against lesser opposition, he went from League 2 to premier league quite fast but he does look like he has all the tools to progress.

This is my issue with him.  He feels a bit positionless.  Not fast enough out wide, where I feel he is best.  But sometimes gets a bit lost and bogged down in the middle on the ball.

 

Really like him and his attitude.  Hope he kicks on between now and the end of the season.

The man got thrown in at wingback against an incredibly skillful and tricky team. It was never a sustainable strategy.
