AVTuco Posted September 24, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted September 24, 2017 I must be watching a different player than others here, but that's ok. I look more into what he can be than what he does in a single game. Or single out individual errors like is the habit here. Anyways, I like him. He'll be real good. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Looks in better shape than when he arrived, but still really unfit. Should have been brought off a lot earlier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Seems to just switch his brain off a bit sometimes, regular football should help stamp it out though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 One thing I will say, is that he just looks soooo Scottish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted September 24, 2017 Moderator Share Posted September 24, 2017 Clearly talented but lacking match fitness and sharpness, he is a good outlet for us though and puts in a good ball which in coming games I’m sure Kodjia will start getting on the end of. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats pretty much how i see it. In flashes he looks different class and you can really see his ability shine through, but its all to fleeting. Hopefully that improves with fitness. Without sounding again like Bruce bashing for the sake of it, the way the team sets up leaves a massive gap between midfield and attack, so i think (although he has said he prefers to play from the right) he could offer something different playing in the 10 role. The sort of thing we all thought RMC would take up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we didnt have snodgrass bjarnasson would be playing more and he is utter gash. Also it gives teams other problems as we have other threats in the side like hourihane, adomah and kodj Very much this. He hasn't got his touch yet, lacks fitness etc, should have been taken off earlier but he is trying to make things happen. Imho he will come good and people will be singing his praises soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiggyrichard Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Premier League quality...just massively short of match fitness! When on his game, he should/will be head and shoulders above anything else in the league!! Massive signing for a struggling Championship club!!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's the ginger beard, wearing of the kilt instead of shorts and, practising the bagpipes in the warm up that might have given it away. Oh, and he has FAMOUS GROUSE on the back of his shirt instead of RECON. Edited September 24, 2017 by villarocker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lapal_fan Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I think he'll be great for us in about 5 games time, when he's got his match fitness up - he's going to be playing catch up until then I think. He'll be fine, but we have to take the rough with the smooth until then. Hope he gets a goal soonish though, think he'll be much better with confidence. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel Posted September 26, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted September 26, 2017 The fact that he looks pretty decent when he is so new to the club, and clearly not match fit, bodes well for us! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted September 26, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted September 26, 2017 Yeah I echo most other people's thoughts. I think he's looked a bit iffy since he joined. Saturday was particularly poor. But I'm confident he'll be a very good signing once he's up to speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
