NE27 Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Positive impact without a lot happening. We looked tired and out of ideas and he brought a fresh direct approach. Was fairly pleased with his showing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWN Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Looked a player as I suspected, this lad is good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 His passing seemed sharp and snappy. Always looked to play it and then move. Quite a few of our players are slow to shift it on. Always wanting an extra touch or just undercooking the pass. Promising 20 mins from him. Probably get longer next week. Then I reckon he’ll start against Liverpool. Unless ASM suddenly clicks and offers a bit more than he did today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pubteam Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Gordon and Isak in the same team would go a long way to solving our attacking problems, he looked sharp today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASM and Targett will attest to that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza ladra Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 We were too slow switching play. He immediately changed that with his first touch. (My thought at that second: oh, I was wrong he’s good. Here’s hoping…) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyc35i Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 He’ll start next week away at Bournemouth for sure. ASM is generally too much of a risk when we want to play the pressing game even at home and you’d think being an away game it makes the decision easier for Eddie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(My thought at that second: oh, I was wrong he’s good. Here’s hoping…) I noticed that as well. We had some fantastic situations but were undone by unnecessary dithering. Very frustrating since we are clearly trying to switch this up, but it's not natural to players who aren't used to operating at such high levels. Not their fault really, we are asking guys who could barely find a place in our side a year ago to play CL football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holloway Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Looks like he can handle a Claire comment and he's already making new runs in our attack,so yeah yeah yeah Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotus Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Would think a lot of adrenaline running through him today. Will get a better understanding of his game when he’s started 3 or 4 games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallowgate Toon Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Didn't realise he was so quick. There were comments from Everton fans about him gassing out a lot - we might find he doesn't play 90 mins much until he gets a full preseason under his belt.

Ronaldo Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 I think he’ll soon be a nailed on starter for at least the remainder of this season. Can see straight off why Howe wanted him. Quick and direct, always loving to move / receive, will chase down everything and looks like he has enough between his ears to make the *right* pass. Howe player all the way.

hakka Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 I enjoyed his cameo. He was very quick with the ball, effective with it and dribbled well. That through ball for Wilson was excellent. With Eddie and the team coaching him I am excited at the potential. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hakka Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 2 hours ago, Jaqen said: Was more impressed by his speed of thought than anything. He has a good appreciation for space, what's around him and knows what he's going to do with the ball before he's even received it. Everything he did was with a purpose. Spot on description that. Before he's got the ball he was very aware of what was on. Almost a littlr Bruno-esque awareness and confidence when receiving the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 He's going to be a great option on our left or our right I think. He's got Miggy's defensive ability so could easily slot in with Trippier on the right and obviously better defensively than Maxi and better going forward than Joe. Think that flexibility will really help with us being able to rotate more and continue playing the same way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big River Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 very impressive cameo. came on and played with intensity and purpose. think he’s going to be class for us and hopefully gets in the starting XI asap! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
