AshVilla Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Should be called Guilebert after tonight. That slide tackle he did was straight out of van damme's playbook. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Looked lively. Didn't create any chances though, almost no crosses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skruff Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 His aggressive runs really opened up space for Jota. They look like a great combination. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Positioning excellent, tackling excellent, passing excellent, energy levels and movement unreal. I was amazed (some) people didn’t want him to get a game over Elmo. I got that Elmo wasn’t bad (and may have even got a good rating on some stats websites) in the last game, but Guilbert is just faster, with better work rate and with a constant willingness to get forward and, not just ‘be there’, but actually drive attacks. Every time we got the ball he was looking to sprint into forward positions. His pace is dangerous, his linking up of passes was pretty accurate and he even got in some decent tackles. Yes, he got a card and was caught out of position a couple of times, but I’ll take that every game if, for the rest of the game, you essentially have an extra winger during attacks to twist opposition defenders in knots. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 honestly, this guy is a player, he's like the energizer bunny, rapid up and down the line, good touch, good going forward, was excellent defensively. Really impressed, great debut. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skruff Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Elmo has been playing well, would be happy to see him start. But after Guilbert performance today, the spot is his to keep. Will be difficult for Elmo to get it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't see the 1st goal then ? sometimes you just need to hold your hands up and say the truth, we were far more attacking and dangerous down the right, our best attacker so far was trez, he had Taylor. How did trez play ? Fast fullbacks like it or not is how we need to play 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfc1982am Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I was concerned in the first 20 or so as I thought he was getting slightly exposed but he grew into it. Him and Jota linked excellently throughout the game and provided a much more potent right side as in preseason. . His willingness to drive forward is what gives us another outlet and frees up spaces for others. I thought he had a quality game over all. Really solid debut.

AVTuco Posted August 23, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted August 23, 2019 (edited) He's got pace, we need that. Will be better, but is suspect defensively. I liked it when Dean subbed Trez for Elmo, that was a good decision. Edited August 23, 2019 by AVTuco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Him and Jota have great chemistry. Our right side looked excellent tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Hope everyone can see what people were talking about when we said our team can really benefit from someone like Guilbert in the team. 10 crosses a game or a dynamic performance like that? Gimme this performance any day of the week. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
