Fulham Barnsley Newcastle Forest Rotherham Also made a decent impact off the bench in several games (please don't make me name them!). Dont get my wrong I'm not in love with the guy and wouldn't be that arsed if he left as long as we got someone better. Just can't agree that the guy is a no hoper as for me on his day he can present opponents with big problems. His dribbling, strength, long range shooting and close control are all big weapons. While someone like Adomah gives you much more consistency he doesn't have the same threat in my view. Which is why I'm pretty happy having both in the squad! Well I don't agree on all those games, for instance against Forest he had a good spell in the second half but was poor in the first. Even if I agreed on the others which I don't that leaves what 4 games in a season and a half? I'm not saying he is devoid of any talent, I just don't accept your original summary that he has had 'a lot of really good games' for us. Do you really think he was really good in those games? I don't. I think he has been a hugely disappointing signing and frankly not worth anything remotely like what we paid for him. We've dropped a diviision and yet he is no more effective.

Dr_Pangloss Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Wasn't the best cameo but I still think he should have started ahead of Gestede with Kodjia playing up top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaglint Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Yep I do think he was good in those games and he had good spells in the Prem last year. Anyway it's just opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilko154 Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Problem with Ayew is he tries to do too much by himself. Technically he is by far our best player, but he will beat a man and then take on the next when he should lay the ball of and get himself into some space. Could be confidence, or it could be he thinks he's just better than this level. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaglint Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Agree with that as I said earlier if the guy had decent decision making he'd be a hell of a player and at a better club than us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy with Ayew and his season, despite his being flat for the last couple of games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 It almost feels like we just need to click as a team and that when we do we'll annihilate someone. If Ayew played to his absolute best he would be a good player, if Grealish, Adomah, Kodjia and the rest also hit their best at the same time we'd take some stopping. It's the inconsistency that's holding us back and Ayew is one of the most inconsistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 I remember people saying he would easily be best player in division so far he has same amount of league goals as Ciaran Clark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 How did this guy play the full 90 minutes. Completely disinterested, turned his back on the play numerous times to show he didn't want the ball. Useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted December 10, 2016 Moderator Share Posted December 10, 2016 Just never going to be my sort of player. He didn't impress me last season and he's been very average this season. Been saying it for a while now, if we could get a decent fee for him I'd gladly sell him and use the money to improve the side because he adds very little. I can't see any PL clubs coming knocking though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 The idea he'd be a goal scorer and piss this level of football has been put to bed right now. Will not be a miss in January. When we scored, he then proceeded to give the ball away the next 3 times he touched it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Like I said a few pages back, i'd trade him in if we can, the same way we did Traore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
