ElDiablo Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 A forward masquerading as a winger. Very good in the box, very average outside of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Bit odd throwing pelters at him when he's the only one of our wingers who has shown up for large parts of this season. It seems to me at this point that something in the way we're setting up is causing our wide men to look completely ineffective. Probably the fact that our forwards are the easiest to mark in the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 No worse than King Anthony but bet he's dropped for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 That Kayode is a beast and I actually thought Barnes did well against him at times. Especially back to goal. Was dominated whenever he tried to go past him, mind. Like most our players these days. They always seem to be miles apart. It felt like plenty of times Barnes got the ball. He had nobody within 20 yards of him. Considering he is all about quick give and goes and trying to work a shooting or crossing opportunity. I would say that’s yet another tactical failure. Why We’re always too far apart and lack any decent passing options. We had a couple of times in the second half with Woltemade as the link man. But few and far between. Anyway, Barnes was crap by his standards. The same as Liverpool. But similar to that game, he still had a couple of good chances. Considering how bad the rest of our team seem to be at finishing and creating. He needs to be in the starting XI most games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucasol Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Barnsey had a couple of early chances to get at Kayode and was shut down both times. He didn’t really have a go at trying to run him after that. Whether that’s a Barnes limitation or the fact Kayode has been really decent this season (more likely a bit of both), either way it did blunt us down that side.

Holloway Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Great finisher,good awareness and makes some clever,dangerous runs.Struggles to go past his marker with either pace or trickery,we kind of know what we're getting with him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ9 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Think he’d be better playing alongside Nick in a 442 than Wissa tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Wasn't helped at all by having Burn at left back, but I wish Barnes would release the ball quicker and look for more one-twos with team mates. Has a habit of staying on the ball too long when he's running with it and then losing it. Especially as he's not great at beating a man one on one out wide. Was disappointed he wasn't really able to go at Archie Gray at right back more, and make him uncomfortable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonny1403 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 He was getting slated on here a year ago as part of that 2024 transfer window. Tonali, Barnes, Hall and Livramento was such a good transfer window in hindsight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 If he plays for England again I will be pleasantly surprised. Miley and Hall should getting a look in though. Tuchel seems to like Burn and to a lessar degree Gordon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
