The West Ham one still does my head in whenever I see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomaszk Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 How on earth we stayed up last season is truly a miracle. Much bigger miracle than promotion. Two in two seasons, blimey we could be waiting a while for another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On Trez, hope he comes good again even if that purple patch was perhaps the form of his life. But at the moment he looks a bit like I imagine I might if I were out there - tries hard, never stops running, takes some embarrassing shots, misses some sitters that are easier to score, but will get a few one touch goals by getting in the right place and because every extra touch is another chance to make a mistake.

Vive_La_Villa Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 (edited) I didn’t even think he was that bad. He was what you normally expect from him. I remember him being a lot worse. Did people think he had turned in to Mo Salah or something? Edited February 23, 2021 by Vive_La_Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 The worst thing for all his criticism is I think he offered more than El Ghazi and Barkley combined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you serious? Do you really mean that he offered more than AEG against Leicester? AEG had a part in the goal we scored and created and good chance for Traore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t remember the chance for Traore. Maybe my memory is clouded but for all of Trez uselessness he seemed to be getting around the pitch more which was causing more of a problem for Leicester. But it was probably also because they were dropping more second half as well as tiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's absolutely useless It does look like a pretty good save from that angle, but I recall the other views and thinking he could easily have done better. It makes the goals he did score at the back end of last season all the more remarkable. I guess he's a step above your Sunday league bloke in terms of pure ability and consistency, whilst obviously being miles above them in terms of fitness and probably a fair bit of determination. Feels a harsh summary, as I did recently think he had significantly improved, but seems even that was just another blip in his inconsistent performance.

M_Afro Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Anybody else think Trez could make a pretty good right back? It worked for Matty Cash. I would like to see him given a go under the right circumstances. He is big enough, strong enough and physical enough. He would obviously be pretty good going forward and he is decent in the air.
