I was really disappointed with him today, he looked dis-interested and almost like he didn't fancy being out there. i don't know where this performance came from.

He still looks quite a way off sharpness wise.

I don’t think he was disinterested, he seems incredibly passionate and clearly wants to do well. 
 

But some of his finishing in the last couple of games is making me nervous. I thought he was a killer … but he’s snatching at things. Maybe to eager to score I don’t know, hopefully it’ll come…

He wasn’t great today but that’s nonsense like. From day one he’s shown nothing but passion, desire and effort.

Doesnt look half the player from Brentford. Has scored two goals in 4 or 5 matches now I think. The return is okey, but hopefully rest of his game will come after a while.

Fair enough maybe my wording was wrong as i know Wissa is a great character and wants to do well, but for a 55m striker wearing number 9 i didn't feel he was giving it to sort of effort your see the likes of Tonali, Bruno, even Gordon was giving at the game, felt like he wasn't aggressive enough in making runs in the box or causing problems to their team.

Needs to start taking straightforward chances… it’s why we bought him…

Yeah that early chance is simple for a goalscorer. Either side of the keeper and it's a goal. It wasn't a great save that the commentary made out, it was an awful miss.

Still rusty due to a long term injury, he’ll be fine. I do think the club probably needs a new wing/forward for next season though, someone who can play striker and on the wing.

'Disinterested' is honestly one of my biggest pet peeves in football fandom.

 

Rarely is it actually accurate but it used so often to describe a less than average performance when in reality the bloke just didn't have a good game.

The game wasn't the best of him, for sure, but he had opportunities and some good moments, he just didn't score. And he's not going to score every game...so, no panic from me. I honestly really like what he's brought to the team, so far.
