Lush Vlad Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 One of the only players I like out of the current squad. Not even ours Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiston Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Poor first half, probably his worst for us so far. Played brilliant in the second half though, he'll have a great career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Didn't think he was that good tbh. Few moments where he made a few nice touches, equal amount of balls-ups. Difficult to feel a modicum of anything. He's not good enough to drag-up the level of performances from piss-take to almost-acceptable, and he'll be a distant memory in a few months in any case.

TRon Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Far too clever for the rest of our team. He's two steps ahead of everyone else, and inevitably ends up looking around desperately for help when he wins a bit of space with some skill and invention.

Thought he’s looked quick, lively and good on the ball from his first ten minutes of playing for us. The only ball carrier from the middle and the only one fit, fast and mobile enough to go box to box. Grafts his bollocks off all game from what I can see.

Lush Vlad Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Obviously it's just me that cant remember anything he did tonight. I don’t think he did anything really flashy. Just constantly driving forward with the ball, getting in the box, tracking back regularly and actually nicking the ball and having an impact. As opposed to just trudging back, running in treacle behind the opposition. He has a really nice touch and habit of getting out of tight spaces with it and a decent turn. I think he looks really good and I like his attitude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 1st half he was poor like. 2nd half he was better and grew into the game, however like everyone else he needs to start passing the ball to players who are free in space. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah there were quite a few times when there was man in space or had a run on and instead he held onto it and lost possession. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Quiet 1st half and a good second, showed he's a really good footballer. Why things don't come off all the time is probably because he's lightyears ahead of our lot. Really like him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo_11 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 He is good on the ball, occasional aspects of his play which let him down today - holding onto the ball too long before a pass or pass not reaching target. However feel sorry for him based on players either not looking to receive the ball which makes him look worse. I've been impressed and he's confident running at people. How would people compare him to Longstaff/s? I noticed Villa opted to play their home grown player over a loan player so it's interesting in our predicament we need to use bigger clubs youth players to improve the team!

andyc35i Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 His touch under pressure, his general composure on the ball and his running power were all way above anything we had out there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
