Czechlad Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Doesn't exist. But yea I could imagine Grealish, Abraham, Chester, Elmo, and a few others would be upset that Bruce was sacked. Bruce backed Grealish early on and helped make Grealish into a better player. Abraham also joined us over cardiff likely because of Bruce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abraham also joined us over cardiff likely because of Bruce. Abraham didn't join Cardiff because he wanted to play for Chelsea. A month later, a month after the Prem transfer window had closed, he hadn't even got in their squad and we and the rest of the Championship were his only options left. He definitely didn't choose us over a Premier League team. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyM3000 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Grealish & Abraham should be delighted. We spend 90% of game doing sweet FA and it just gets booted up to them. New manager must see Bolasie, El Ghazi, Abraham, Grealish and be rubbing his hands. Our defence is shit but lets just win every game by outscoring the opposition. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goal was good everything else not so much. Didn’t do a huge amount wrong but not a huge amount right either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sir_gary_cahill Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Great finish, real goalscorer’s goal, great ball in by Bjarnason I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever about booting over the midfield's head, I don't think that booting it over the striker's head is the greatest tactic ever.

Disagree, hoof it up to him and play off him, he’s a target man, play to his strengths, it might be pretty but it would be effective. I know it’s synonymous with Aston Villa but it would achieve results in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan_007 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 He is scoring goals, which is a credit to him. But like most of the other strikers we've had recently, we give him no service, and have no set play to involve him in regular attacks. The crosses into him during the game are mostly embarrassing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junxs Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 I'm just not seeing it, read a few of your posts over the last few pages saying how good he is but the jury's still out for me. Maybe I am expecting too much from him but certainly doesn't look any better than Kodjia to me. Could just be a case of no matter who plays up front fails as we just aren't playing football at the moment. Hopefully the new manager can get the best out of him, Bruce certainly didn't.

In my opinion, he’s got the lot, he’s quick, strong, good in the air, good with his back to goal, good hold up play, he runs the channels well. He’ll only get better over time, he’s only 21 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So in my eyes age is irrelevant to us for loan signings. I haven't seen anything of what you have mentioned, other than hes got a good finish. I don't think his hold up play is very good and he loses possession far too cheaply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Think he will get a lot of goals under Smith. Watching him for England U21s you can see his hold up play and movement is good, and he has a good touch. If we create for him I can see him easily getting 20+ goals. Could be the leagues top scorer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
