TRon Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 3 minutes ago, Holloway said: Bit alarmed at him sort of trundling along in his recent appearances. Maybe the brakes aren't fully off after his lengthy spell out but it looks like he's lacking a bit of urgency in his play I hope it's just rust and not long term after effects of his injury. He's only 29 (supposedly) so he should be able to make a full recovery. But anyone with more medical knowledge feel free to shed light on the matter.

The shit this guy is getting is way over the top, it was a major injury and he’s clearly still short of match sharpness, as Eddie has alluded to today and many other times.

The age of African footballers is often questioned here, maybe they don't have proper age documentation in some countries over there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 I missed the Manchester game but what i have noticed with him is the amount of ignored runs he makes. Surprised to hear that he looks lazy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he might not know what to do tbh. But against man City there were times others were pressing with a lot more intensity than he was and it's happened before. But against PSV it was tremendous. It might be tactical as you say. Woltemade is worse at it but he looks physically incapable of it mostly. Both definitely have room for improvement.

Dr.Spaceman Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 He may just not be up to it. A lot of time out followed by several multi-game weeks means less time on the training pitch than he'd have liked. I doubt he's suddenly though "fuck it, cba" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised to hear that he looks lazy. I don't rate Wissa at all, however you are absolutely correct in saying his runs into the box are often ignored. Hopefully his shit form is just a question of his style dovetailing with Howes, but I don't think he'll ever be prolific Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
