gbandit Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 He just plays in such a chilled out fashion that you can be forgiven for accepting it when he does class things all the time. No fuss, just a great pass here, a great run there. He’s going to start scoring more regularly too, I’m sure of it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were rampant after Isaks goal and we should have had the game won by half time. Joe was just chilled out, I thought. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 We’ve missed him massively. He truly can do it all and can only really get better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He works really well with Maxi on that left side. honestly need to get Joelinton playing on the right of the 3 and we have our best midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 His pressing is elite but his defensive work in the middle of the pitch does need work and is where I think we missed Joelinton a bit. Still, he was relentless and took responsibility so often. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were playing our best football when he was in the side for me, and he's only going to improve. Some of the stuff he does is outrageously good.

Joe, Joe and Bruno, Willock is so good at relieving pressure and getting us into advanced positions carrying the ball, he gets unnoticed because he picks it up deep and releases it at the right times to see other players into the game. That assist today was inch perfect with 3 defenders closing him down, unreal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnes23 Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 The biggest positive from today, aside from the win, was how well Willock, ASM and Isak linked up together. Exactly the kind of interchanges and attacking patterns that had been missing from our play after the restart, and a timely reminder of just how valuable Willock can be in transition. Would like to see us find a way to accommodate all three in the first XI going forward Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really like him as a player, feel like he's been underrated since his incredible goal scoring run after he first joined on loan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 I absolutely love how you just about get a read on when after slowing the opponent down he’s going to dip a shoulder and do them on the outside with that 5-10 yard of acceleration but the defender absolutely doesn’t. Time and time again too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
