Gallowgate Toon Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 There were quite a few moments on Saturday where he made a run behind or had the option to be played into earlier and we pretty much always hesitated. We seemed very timid in terms of upping the tempo, perhaps fearing a sucker punch too much. Got to hope that's about teammates needing to get used to his movements as well as how to develop a possession game. Either way, I think a short spell as a wide forward is a good way for him to learn about the league and for the rest to better understand his game in a less critical role, without negating his talents as a forward who can drive forward and be effective in & around the box.

Keegans Export Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 23 hours ago, KDT said: Bournemouth was him largely having to play with his back to goal and feeding off scraps, that's absolutely not what he's about. Bournemouth are a funny one. Man City, Arsenal and Liverpool ripped them to shreds but in the other four games this season they've only conceded three goals and two of those were penalties. Interested to see how their defence goes from now to the World Cup, they've got a nice run of fixtures. Either way I'm not reading too much into last weekend, as disappointing as it was.

Holmesy Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Shelvey and Maxi will make the world of difference to Isak, when they're back. Shelvey gets plenty of pelters on here but he has better vision than most and plays the ball early - he'll spot those early runs from Isak and stick the ball over or through for him first time. Maxi just creates space, which is exactly what we needed against Bournemouth. No striker is going to tear up trees with Almiron, Murphy and Fraser feeding him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's sort of what I meant - I'm not reading too much into it until I've seen more of how they defend against others outside the top 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s similar to us last year, our defence was really solid back half of the season but we still shipped 5 to City and Spurs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
