andycap Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 (edited) Got to be considered as a winger to give gordon some rest. Flash on the bench for a few games would do the lad a world of good while he rests up. Edited December 16, 2023 by andycap Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 I thought he gave us some much needed Livra-style energy when he came on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smal Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 he looked like he was really keen to try and do something positive when he was on the pitch which says good things about his attitude. Few nice passes as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Age and experience (Hall's biggest weakness) is clearly not an issue for Howe, so Hall has every chance cracking it here. Just needs that moment where he, Howe & the rest of the team believes. Miley has had it, Tino has, hopefully it's Halls turn soon enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackflap Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Sorry if mentioned already but I wonder if the obligation is on an appearance basis and like Griezmann a couple of seasons ago he needs to play a certain amount of minutes for it to count. If ever there was a game to give him a decent run it was today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we'd used two "sub windows" early we really were worried about any more injuries, otherwise Gordon would have been off as soon as we got the 2nd.

Lotus Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 I’ve been a big advocate for him. I think he may have the best left foot in the squad. But I thought he looked a little lost when he came on. Not all his fault as he wasn’t involved much by the others when open. Once or twice I thought defensively he looked a little less than good. But also some a couple of great passes, one in particular, couldn’t see anyone else on the left doing that… Very tough to judge him. Very talented ball player. Just trying to see what it is EH doesn’t yet fancy in him. I’m very much hoping getting him games will allow him to feel part of it all and he then raises his level til the point he’s always in the conversation.

Kanj Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Wand of a left foot and very raw in terms of positional awareness as a fullback. Liked his ball playing and I’ll say it again, he’s got very Trippier style to him; perhaps that defensive side to his game will come later when he becomes more aggressive and confident. He does feel a bit a too passive at times where as Livramento is very direct in his decision making. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I saw, I couldn't tell if he was tactically fluid or tactically indisciplined. He was drifting around in a threatening but not necessarily methodical manner.

buzza Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 You could argue that he us more of a "wingback" than a full back, more attack minded than defensive. Another young lad who will need time and confidence. I am also suspect of his defensive qualities, but who the hell am I to decide that. Eddie and Ashworth will have done their homework, a la Gordon, I assume. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, I'm just not sure if it's what Eddie would want from him in terms of establishing himself as a trusted part of the squad. Like, Livramento has been very fluid going forwards at times but I'm sure what's made him already a nailed on part of the first team is his defensive dominance and the way the team structure seems unchanged when he's playing. Realise that by definition I'm scrutinising Hall more closely than I would another player, just trying to work out how it's being interpreted by the management.
