poitier Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 He looked comfortable on the ball, but quite lax in his defensive play. Certainly better than Gardner though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say they should be, but he certainly wasn't much of an improvement IMO. He kept getting caught in position, looked hesitant and rushed on the ball. Also didn't look like he was busting a gut to do anything. Something I thought he would have been doing today, to make a point to the manager. I can't stand Westwood but at least he looks like he is trying when he plays, just isn't good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSV Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Thought he did well. A couple of misplaced passes.. but we were playing premier league opposition. The midfield didnt seem to be as easy to get through. Considering it was a midfield two.. i thought they did well. The front four were poor though.

I thought he looked pretty good today to be honest. I think he is much better than Westwood & Gardner. We won't play against a midfield like that for the rest of the season and he held his own. With him Jedinak, hopefully Lansbury and one more cm I would be happy that our cm would be strong enough to at least reach the play offs and give us a good foundation to build on in the future windows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted January 8, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted January 8, 2017 Did OK again I think. His inexperience came through a couple of times. Keeps his place ahead of either Westwood or Gardner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like this, kind of gallows humour to pick us all up after another defeat. Well done you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted January 8, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted January 8, 2017 He's ok all over. I'd have him in the team ahead of Gardner and Westwood, but like I've said before he's yet to show anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 He did nothing good. I like Tshibola, but when he was put under a little pressure, he looked to pass it backwards immediately or tried something he shouldn't. Defensively he was a major liability.

vreitti Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 First time I've seen him play, and now I see why he hasn't been picked. Looked a little clueless to me, and low on confidence. Offers a tad more energy and endeavour than our usual suspects, but ultimately just too slow and sloppy with the ball. He isn't the answer, at least not short term, we still need a new midfield. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post dont_do_it_doug. Posted January 8, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2017 Some utterly bizarre comments. If you thought that was poor given the level of opposition then god knows what you're expecting from Lansbury. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

striker Posted January 8, 2017 Visiting Supporter Share Posted January 8, 2017 Tish looked marginally better than either Westwood or Gardner but offensively it's hard to judge him without having a forward to pass to. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 He looked better than Westwood and Gardner against a much higher level of opposition so on that basis has to start from now on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnski Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Thought he did ok considering it was his first start in ages, hopefully he ups his game on Saturday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has more goals than Westwood and the same amount as Gardner and Bacuna and hes played a lot less minutes. His size can be a threat on set pieces.

Dead right, he had a job to do yesterday that he wont have to do many more times this season. Simple containment.

dont_do_it_doug. Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 FFS... Why can't they stop hitting the self destruct button? This was his chance to cement a place and he might have blown it. Hopefully just a fine and move on. Explains a lot though eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
