AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 29, 2025 Share Posted November 29, 2025 Still thought he was pretty average but he wasn't bad and that's a significant improvement. And he showed good work and awareness for the assist. Hopefully will give him a real lift. Unless Gordon is going to play RW we have to hope he is going to make himself the man.

Sibierski Posted November 29, 2025 Share Posted November 29, 2025 Really good solid performance, platform to build on. Do think he benefits loads from Bruno in higher role to play the pass to them earlier. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted November 29, 2025 Share Posted November 29, 2025 Was better than Murphy doing the short infield stuff. Also had Mylenko under manners. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elanga will end up being our regular right wing option. It's happening already. The team are stating to "gel". This team with Wissa involved will take some stopping.

KaKa Posted November 30, 2025 Share Posted November 30, 2025 Just a matter of time with this guy. Saw some really encouraging glimpses of some chemistry between him and Tino. Think he'll benefit massively from Tino being back on that side for him to interchange with. He enjoyed a good partnership with another athletic strong full back that carried the ball well in Ola Aina at Forest, and so I think it will serve him well here also. Did well to run the ball down and unsettle the Everton players on the goal, and had good awareness to play it to Woltemade straight away as he was in lots of space. Was great to see Tino play that ball in behind and ahead of him to run onto in the first place too. Really liked the surging run ahead of Woltemade to get in behind early on as well, which resulted in the corner the first goal came from. Much more to come from him.

Optimistic Nut Posted November 30, 2025 Share Posted November 30, 2025 That should be his "average". Big contribution to some goals, posed a threat. Much better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted November 30, 2025 Share Posted November 30, 2025 Even some basic things seemed a lot better. His passing wasn’t so wayward, he was more purposeful when attacking and as Kaka said. He was linking well with Tino. It was the off the ball work that I noticed most. Was far more aggressive than he has been and got a tackle in a few times on the touchline. A very small thing, but I bet Howe noticed it and loved it. It’s what has made this team so good. The energy and aggression out of possession. If he can build on this and this is like his new baseline. Then he’ll have a good rest of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Displayname Posted November 30, 2025 Share Posted November 30, 2025 Really liked his run for the first goal. Became a chance out of nothing really, just forced through his speed. Great assist aswell. Will hopefully give a major boost to his confidence. Probably a concident, but looking back at it, most of our good games this year has been when he started. Villa Liverpool Barcelona Union Forest Everton And both League cup games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's such an easy out ball and really allows him to showcase his best attributes. Loved that Tino played that ball, which wasn't even that precise, but as you said, his speed makes it a dangerous situation for the opposition that they failed to deal with due to their panic after he made up so much ground to reach it.

That was for the third. I’m guessing he means for the Woltemade pass that then led to Elanga’s shot. Then us scoring from the corner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually liked how quickly Elanga played it into Woltemade in the first place and anticipated that he'd be able to then get the return ball n behind with his run. Really good play for that as well.

Sibierski Posted December 2, 2025 Share Posted December 2, 2025 He’ll have his moments, but £55m for him. Christ. We have fuck all technical ability on that right side.
