useless Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 It was deliberate you quite clearly saw him look over his shoulder at Grealish before he made the backheel. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really thought he meant it. He does have a glance before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post New_Hope Posted August 27, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 27, 2019 Other than that back heel....I don't think he contributed too much really. But still a good squad player to have. I think he will move on in January to a championship team. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put two on a plate and got a third assist for Guilbert with good pass from the corner. He just can't move. No legs on the chap. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 He had some nice touches, especially the assists for Hourihane and Grealish, but wasn't as good as some are making out, didn't really impose himself on the game. Besides he pretty much always plays well in friendlies or against lower league opposition in the cups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When was the last time he had his chance as a playmaker? leave Swansea in the cup, as that was in the middle of our worst performances, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I don't know I can't remember. Hopefully he can use today's game as a springboard and finally make a good impression, would be good to see him make an impact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely deliberate, but think he spotted Guilbert - Grealish was just coming on to it better so took the shot. Doesn't take anything away from the assist though. He player very well. Suspect he'd struggle a lot more against higher quality opposition, but having him means McGinn got a night off, which is very useful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did, and while he played exceptionally well (easily MOTM for me), I am pretty sure that backheel was to the Villa player standing between Lansbury and Grealish. Can't remember who it was mind. Edit: It was Guilbert. https://youtu.be/7Nwa0IS_Oh4?t=579 Edited August 28, 2019 by KenjiOgiwara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveAV1 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I think he can be a very useful asset for us this season. I know he doesn’t particularly have the legs, but he’s a clever footballer and will understand the game plan. As Pez said above, at the very least he gave SJM a night off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New_Hope Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 (edited) I think the word 'assist' gets abused a bit! Guilbert's goal for instance was a pass from a corner. Guilbert then controlled it looked up and put in a great finish just because Lansbury passed it to him hardly makes it an assist. In my eyes, an assist is where your team mate has to do nothing other than put the ball in the net! I felt most of the game passed him by. Nakamba had a far better game and was more influential.
