Sulberto21 Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 He was my motm today for the simple fact he he tackled harried and actually kept the ball better than he has been recently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May-Z Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Turns the ball over too much. There was a half time stat comparing him to Harrison Read. Something like: McGinn attempted 8 passes, 60% success. So doesn't try a lot of passes, but quite often gives it away when he does. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoony Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Was better today but I still think he needs replacing. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 McGinn looks better as a more forward thinking player. He's too lightweight to hold as defensive player. Still gave the ball away too much but he was better. MOTM no way not for the amount of turnovers he gives the opposition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-R Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Certainly has to be attacking, he's not a players who has to hold himself back he's got to much of that pitbull in him who just goes and goes on the attack. I'd play two CDM and have Mcginn on the attack in front maybe?? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Thought he was definitely better a bit further forward today. Like mentioned above if it wasn't for Trez and I've probably said McGinn was our MOTM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we did that though then we would most likely have to have Sanson on as a CDM also. Which brings something to mind with Sanson. When you watch the clips of him from his old club, Sanson always nicks the ball from his own box area. He always manages to go on some crazed goat like run all the way to opposition area and they are unable to catch him. I don't think we are playing Sanson right, he has speed and he showed an instance or two of that speed today, he is truly fast and we need to start his run earlier with the players chasing him.

Delphinho123 Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 In form, out of form. Fit, not fit. As a 6, 8 or 10 - McGinn is currently the best central midfielder at the club and should start every game. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 When Grealish is back it would be good to see McGinn play the same role as today . Could be some great switching between the two in that role and i think they would tear it up . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to see this too as I think Dougie's instincts are all wrong for the role recently for some reason, push Dougie (or maybe Ramsey) and SJM more forward and play Sanson and Marv behind with Sanson doing as you say. Worth a shot as we are really stuggling to control games right now. OW JG DL SJM MN MS The wingers are just not doing it so im all for this.

Tom13 Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 I'm getting sick of his aimless balls forward. He wastes half decent positions with them as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Doesn't actually do anything. Doesn't tackle. Doesn't score goals. Doesn't dictate the play. Doesn't get on the ball. Just pings. Nicked an assist fair enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holteend1982 Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Had an excellent 1st minute, didn't see him after that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 OK he got an assist... Apart from that's gave the ball away directly to an opponent five times in the first half, four of them were in the first 18 minutes. Needs replaced, our midfield cost us today. We could not keep possession of the ball and the opposition easily play through us. Still think our main signing in the summer needs to be the all-round midfielder. McGinn is a squad player at best he's too slow for the PL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
