Was it VAR, or just because it when in off their player, or was he pissed at Traore starting the last game (hope so), is he annoyed at forums and social media, what what, I dont know. I noticed it too but his face lit up into a big smile when Targett had ran over to celebrate with him. I think it was because he knew it wasn't his goal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that when Luiz and those have a good day, we are a more complete team, the are bang on most of the time so with them on it too we are really good.

TRO Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 (edited) 7 hours ago, Chindie said: Quantity has a quality all of its own. If your work rate is as unbreakable as his is, you don't need to be the most skillful. His game is to never, ever stop. He must drive opposition because he's like a terrier, he is going to chase them down until his legs can't work anymore. Couple that with his instinct to attack the back post and sneak round the back of the defence on a cross and he's become a properly useful player. Good man. good resume...significant points. bang on. My thoughts on the back post have been swirling around in my head for some time, its such a breeding ground for goals.....and Trez looks like he has nailed it, in his thinking too. I won't mention Workrate, I have done it to death......but they all worked like Trojans. Edited November 9, 2020 by TRO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Gem of a player he’s turning into, there will always be games where he’s anonymous, that’s the life of winger particularly when the best player at the club plays on the opposing flank. His work rate yesterday was unreal, I think there was only one occasion he let his man go and it amounted to nothing, I love this guy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Wingers should always attack the back post, Trez has got this down to a tee. Such a good trait to have in your team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwivillan Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 One of highlights of game for me was him dispossessing the Arsenal player that led to Grealish shot cleared off the line 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted November 9, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted November 9, 2020 I do like the 'Trez Bremner' tag. Different position, but I can see the comparison. Des was probably the least overtly skilful player in the Saunders side, but he was a team player, had phenomenal workrate and kept it simple. Wear the opposition down, stay in their faces for ninety minutes. Every great team needs one. Also, Des once bought me a pint. Hope you're reading this, Trez. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoMkali Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Currently Trezeguet and cash are winning a combined 11 tackles and interceptions per game. We as a team only make 25.7 total. I think this is part of a concerted effort to force teams down our right. As Jack and Targett have a combined 4.4 and even if you assume they are worse defensively it shouldn't really be more than twice and here it is 2.5 times which is massive. I'll also say I think Luiz mcginn and barkley need to do more defensively in terms of winning the ball in the middle of the park and initiating counter attacks. If Mcginn could bump his numbers up to 2.5, barkley up to 1.5 and Luiz up to 3 I think we would be super dangerous. Especially since all of them can beat a man and have excellent vision and range of passing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Praised by Smith after the game as well so definitely not gone unnoticed. Pretty much said he was tactically raw when he arrived but has improved rapidly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GENTLEMAN Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I absolutely wrote this guy off, to the point that I was happy to see him sold in the summer. I even questioned his attitude after a bit of tantrum after being subbed. I think he just loves playing. Fast becoming an integral part of the team, offering a lot of balance. His timing, work-rate and ATTITUDE are unmatched by anyone in the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
