Can't see Wissa doing much different even if he was fit as nowt is being created. 

 

Can be a threat on the counter. You can actually play him through. Wolte is too slow for that.

We've not had any opportunities to counter

[Smal]

he’s not even winning any headers at the moment, like

Absolutely lost 

[Amir_9]

Stinker of a display unfortunately, his worst one for us yet.

Eddie urgently needs to find the right position for Nick.

I'd play Wissa up front and Nick behind him. Maybe a 4-2-3-1.

I keep reading that he’s not a CF, yet no-one appears to have told the German national side this either?

[El Prontonise]

He seriously needs to bulk up for that PL.

[Erikse]

I think it can't be underestimated how handy it is to have a striker that you can play through sometimes. It's not easy to spot the opportunities where it could have been possible when we rarely bother to attempt it with Wolte, but there are moments where it could have happened with a faster striker who moves in a different way. It also means that the defenders has to be more careful.

Worst possible performance today.

[Rich]

Love the big bugger but that was an all-time stinker.

[Andy]

He'll always look absolutely terrible in a counter attacking setup, but he's also got to do more himself physically, really poor today.

Genuine 0/10 performance

 

It's been a while

[Gallowgate Toon]

Very out of form. Need to get Wissa 45 mins from the start on Wednesday.

[ponsaelius]

He's got to do loads more for me. I don't blame him for the goal so much because we shouldn't be relying on him to be a third CB so often. But everything else hes falling way short of good enough right now.

Aye, his general game has been very poor since Everton. Passes going astray, winning less duels etc.

[Pearljam10]

Isuck performance

[Dyeyzzon]

Rest him please. He desperately needs it. Feel sorry for the lad.

[Keefaz]

Is there no young un we can bring in who can run? Are we that shallow?

[TBG]

If he's gonna do this against the mackems, what's hes gonna do if we (England) play Germany in the World Cup? Score against England?

 

Get rid.

[Miggys First Goal]

He’s a back heel specialist and that’s about it. 

[Turnbull2000]

Terrible, terrible, terrible. But do feel sorry for him.

[Robbo2]

Get him on the Miley summer roids and come back built like Ivan Drago. Thanks

[Smal]

I preferred it when we just let him play much deeper. He was more connected to the team and it’s not like he’s become more of a goal threat because he playlets on the last line more now.

[nufc123]

Starting to wonder if this will work out. I know he has scored goals, but hes not a Howe player at all.

We can't counter though, with any of them, we have barely done it well all season. It's been tragic and not sure what team we are trying to be
