  1. Works hard and at times makes great movement. Wish he could link up his movement decisions more with Grealish so he opens more space for our skipper Not so good on the ball in the last matches, but I have a feeling if he just gets some goals, it will come ALOT more
  2. Seems to lack confidence. Why on earth did he try to pass to Watkins when he has a clear line of shot? You could see Grealish was frustrated after that decision. I believe he can be something, but hoped it would come sooner...
  3. I thought it was a great performance from him yesterday. He shows he has something that warrants a place in our squad. He has learned to much from watching Trezeguets ability to finish, but he had alot of great involvements before the final execution. Did not expect that great of a performance. Together with Grealish and Traore he should have scored atleast twice yesterday, but I think this was a positive surprise! I would not mind seeing him start next one either.
  4. Wesley had meningitis and an 11 day ligament injury in 2016 before Ben Mee assaulted him. Not much injuries there either.
  5. In the games Wesley played, Grealish played LW in following games (Burnley, Norwich, Brighton, City, Newcastle, United, Chelsea, Leicester, Sheffield, Southampton, Watford, and the pyrrhic victory over Burnley). I stand 57% corrected Thanks! I will still stand behind my opinion of him being more isolated than Watkins is this season, and that is a contributes to differences in stats (still not claiming Wesley > Watkins, just that Wesley have potential and someone should stop writing him off and calling him thrash).
  6. In a team where we played El Ghazi and Trezeguet on the wings. Which meant to link up with Grealish and McGinn he had to drift towards central midfield to link up with them. You know what that results in? He being further away from the goal. Hence why Watkins averages 0.9 shots more each game than Wesley did. 2.6 vs 1.7 (I know you ignore stats unless they support your narrative). Wesley was not great last season, but he showed potential. Way more potential than Trezeguet did, and look at Trez now.
  7. That 5 minute compilation is based on 21 games, and clearly shows his hold up game is not bad. He had 0 help. He was alone at top. Look at how our other players are flourishing now.... I.e he had a higher goals per minute than Callum Wilson who already put 6 this season, because he has a better team than last year... Look at Salah, first season in PL he had 2 goals in 10 games. Is Salah still "atrocious"? Get over your own stubborness and hate for Wesley.
  8. I am joining the people believing you are drunk. First I thought you were just talking out of your ass, but I doubt even that would amount to the shitfest you are throwing here...
  9. Are you trying to tell me Wesley did not work his socks off? His pressure and work ethic was one of his strongest attributes. That is he is not good at heading I 100% agree on. You seem to just have put a hate on Wesley, same you did to Traore and Trezeguet last season. Wesley has not been given a proper chance, look at the players who were not great last season have grown this year for us. Wesley could be one of them as well, he has great potential. Lets hope he returns from injury and give him a break.
  10. With how this season has gone so far, I would be more comfortable facing Chelsea, United, Spurs and City than Brighton, Burnley and WBA...
  11. I believe its too early to write him off. He had an unthankful job trying to work alone up top. Watkins do have more support than Wesley did. Not sayin Wesley > Watkins, but I believe Wesley could also thrive more with a midfield that is better than previous season. We need the depth he can give us, and he has the potential to become a top player in my eyes. Just hope the injury does not give permanent damage to his abilities.
  12. First time I agree with you However, I think it is a bit pre-emptive sice we are 4 games into the season
  13. is johnnyp and Villalad21 the same person...? Love the signing. Even without an option to buy. We can increase wages with more years in PL. He is at extremely high wages in Chelsea, and for the long-term I do not believe we should fork out those wages on players like Barkley anyways

    Matty Cash

    How Cash didnt get booked is beyond me. Atleast 3 fouls that all qualified for a yellow
  15. Still he does that half job better than the others you mention... You could turn it around and say had it not been for his defensive contribution we would not be in this league. Do you use a Ouija board to come up with your "facts"... Yes, he lacks somewhat in the offensive parts. Does that mean he is worse than Cash and Elmohamedy, no. Cash is unproven, and Guilbert is PROVEN to be our best rightback.
  16. Not expected anything less Just that "facts wise" he was our highest rated defensive player last year at whoscored with 6.89 (Targett was second with 6.86). Elmo who is "comfortably" better had 6.55
  17. Nitpicker I think we get what I tried to convey
  18. I dont even know if we get this guy or not. But the experience and hope (this thread) has been worth it! Would be one of the most impressive non-signing in a while. Hope we are making the worum and the WIPs of WB proud
  19. I agree, I would sub in El Ghazi yesterday to create something. The point was more to games where we would not be dominating possession to the amount we did yesterday
  20. 100% wrong name, probably because of frustration with Targett at times Still point of defensive works stand, as his stats shows.
  21. To be fair to Trez, he does alot defensively. Targett is being saved by Trez ALOT during our games. However in games where we need goals, I would not play Trez.
  22. So the same as Trezeguet... El Ghazi can create something, even thou I rate Trez over him due to the defensive contribution. Yesterday, we should have subbed him in to make something happen.
