McCormack doing that strange thing of holding the ball up, laying it off, allowing the midfield to get up the field, spreading the play, getting it wide,linking up with others, running off each other, playing one twos. We called it football in my day. All bizarre concepts to Kodjia. Very bizarre post considering he is our top goal scorers and most dangerous player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantis Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Going from losing so often to winning quite often but not as often as we'd like has made this place even more bizarre than usual. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastie Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Quality player and good value so far - my only complaint that he has tunnel vision at times and doesn't pass when he should - still can play a huge part in our promotion chase though . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think Ayew offers more to the team than Kodjia, his lack of work is a complete myth where Kodjia is truly lazy without the ball at his feet. Ayew creates for others too, works well with his full backs when wide, Kodjia doesn't. I like Kodjia and think he is a good player but not one we will miss as I think we will actually look more balanced and play better without him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The goal vs QPR was all his own doing. He is a game changer afew for me is a hard worker but won't produce that moment of magic that kodjia can that can win you the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Why are Ivory Coast allowed to dictate whether he plays for us or not when the tournament is still two weeks away? He's actually registered to Aston Villa he just plays for them as a representative. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I have a feeling he might play as surely brucie wouldn't have allowed Rudy to leave? I also think Bruce would have said by now Ivory Coast had said no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kodija has been scoring goals but I have been very frustrated at his decision making. He is very greedy and for every goal he scores he misses a chance when team mate was in better position four or five times. I like Kodija and his work rate but not convinced he is PL quality (yet). I do think we may play better as a team when Ross steps in and begins to link up with grealish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyM3000 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 We have three players that want to be the main man that gets 20 goals a season, Ayew, Kodjia and McCormack. As a 3 they do not play well together. Considering how much time the ball spends in the air in this league I think Gestede should be starting, we win no long balls at all. If Gestede is in, only one of the above three get in for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a schoolyard hog! I actually blame him for us drawing with Leeds. How many of his goals have been penalties? Thus someone else could've taken the spot kick Edited January 2, 2017 by Villan_of_oz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
