Kiwivillan Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Dingles laughing at us Funny they played Hause at left back ...if they had scouted him right and seen the away game at Boro where he was hooked at half time you'd never play him in that role again , like a fish out of water and seems an utter waste of a loan move for him. A shambles really wasn't it. Never a left back in a million years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skruff Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Clearly not a fullback. But his first touch. Im not sure if its nerves, but that must have been some of the worst first touches I've seen. The ball kept ricocheting off him. I doubt he'd come even close to the team if he's anything like that in training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Considering that was his first game and he doesn't look like a left back he did okay in my eyes. No worse than Taylor. Not going to crucify him he did his best out there. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Completely devoid of confidence but he did grow into the game as it went on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted February 14, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted February 14, 2019 (edited) He was about 900% better than Wigan! If he keeps up this level of improvement we are going to have one hell of a player on our hands! Edited February 14, 2019 by Nigel 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thabucks Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 First start in 21 months I read somewhere .. He is a project that’s for sure ... hopefully after a run of games to build his confidence he proves to be an asset not a complete liability and he can grow with us into a useful player. I think it would be unfair to judge him on last night alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted February 14, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted February 14, 2019 In all seriousness he was better than Taylor has been of late. Gave us a bit more strength down the left. Would like to see him given a few more games to see what he can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bannedfromHandV Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Whoever scouted this guy should be sacked instantly, if someone had told me that he'd never played a game of football in his life before last night I'd have found it totally believable.

I actually was going to vote him for MoTM in the post-match thread until the goal. Because I honestly thought it was a miracle that we could have kept a clean sheet with someone so utterly inept in the team. Folks, can see plenty of "thought he did okay" comments, I challenge you to go back and watch the match and focus on him, he was beyond dreadful. Panicked in possession, his attempts to kick it away were akin to a Sunday League player (he could barely even loft it or kick it further than 25 yards), his tackling/pressing was non-existent, he only won headers when he wasn't challenged.....I could go on. Where in the f**k do we dig these nuggets up from?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
