Smal Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 first time since pre-season that he’s looked absolutely rapid tonight. Think the crowd getting behind him immediately took the weight off his shoulders. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Another promising cameo. Was willing him to score that shot he sliced like mad. Love the crowd getting behind him. More of that, please. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 He got great backing from the crowd tonight. Bloody hell I remember players names being booed in the pre match announcements. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 So happy for him, looked much better tonight and the fans got behind him. He deserved that after a rough ride last time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keefaz Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Didn't look terrified. 👍 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Is he actually alright? Put in a cross that resulted in a shot on target, harassed their defence, had a shot himself from an angle rather than passing the buck... Keep going. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hudson Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 (edited) Just finished watch the match(had to go out,family shite) watch a performance. intensity is our identity tonight. Fantastic results and happy for Elanga looked like his best game for us so far. Edited January 21 by Hudson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbydazzla Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 (edited) Well would you Adam & Eve it. A player actually plays better when they receive positive encouragement from their own fans. There’s a lesson in there for some of the whoppers in our crowd. Well done to everyone who got behind him tonight, he definitely fed off of the positivity.

Like the great man Keegan said, just get at them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best part was when he attacked their fullback with his pace and went past him and their fullback brought him down and got a yellow card for it. Just keep doing that.

Holloway Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 it's great to hear he got the backing of the crowd tonight, a realisation he's been somewhat struggling. I bet he feels better about himself tonight, let this be the platform for better things Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I missed it as I left early to avoid the queues, but I'm amazed that i) he has a chant (that doesn't begin with "get out of our club...") and ii) he responded to the positivity with an above average performance. The mind boggles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mind boggles. Genuinely mate. Are you ok? About a week or two ago, you were a good poster and one who's posts I enjoyed reading and agreed with. I'm reaching for the ignore button now though and it's a bit sad. We all get wound up at times with other people views and can maybe respond at the time, but you seem incapable of letting go. Maybe a period off here might do you good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Still needs a goal to get started. Think he will be far more useful once that happens. But nice to see the crowd supporting him the last few games. Benefits no one to get on players backs when they are wearing our shirt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallsendmag Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Crowd reaction towards him sounded fantastic and it clearly gave him a massive confidence boost. Needs a goal or an assist but I still wouldn't write him off just yet. There's definitely more positive signs appearing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah there was definitely a concerted effort to back Elanga. I've never actually a heard a song about him before but it was constant for a good few minutes.
