SteV Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 2 hours ago, NEEJ said: As good as he was, it seemed as if he still had a few more levels in him, like. Keep him fit and he's going to be absolutely massive over the next few weeks. Yep, he’s still not up to absolute peak acceleration yet. There was a moment right at the end of the first half where he had Dalot completely isolated and went to just burn him on the outside but didn’t quite manage it. If he’s 100% he leaves him trailing.

Not convinced Gordon deserves a top 10 spot despite me being a big fan. He does speak well off the pitch though With Gordon, his earnest commitment to the "one pillow or two" patter in the Amazon doc opened my eyes to his potential canny lad status.

Mind-boggling It did seem to be almost sped up in real time.

andycap Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 So direct tough to defend against what we've been missing for most this season so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pancrate1892 Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Was my player of the season all the way until he limped off v Brighton. Pre season and those 3 defeats we kept wondering what was wrong with us and I firmly believe it was his absence. No way will this lad be stepping aside or spending time on the bench, still only 24, he's the future of nufc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he'll have to be managed better this season the odd rest here and there keep them hammies and groin strains at bay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Have to admit to thinking he was a bit of a desperation signing due to being the only player we had contact with at the time. But under Howe he really looks the business. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 I really love the way a lot of our players play. In fact it would probably be quicker to tell you the players I don't rate really highly. But there's something extra special about Willock like. I can't quite put my finger on exactly what it is but from the moment I saw him I just had a gut feeling about him that's never gone away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 When Eddie talks about Willock he has a twinkle in his eye. That speaks volumes about the lad. I think Willock has just come through the same tunnel that Longstaff did, whereby he's no longer a boy and feels like he absolutely belongs in a quality side. You can almost see it I'm his body language. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
