Showed willing to get on the ball in a nervy side. Got balls this lad. First time I’ve really liked him. We all know he’s wonderful technically but today he showed heart, determination and a real engine to run out the game. Gave away a couple of silly fouls and had a few poor touches but if he plays every game with this aggro and grit I’m sure he will be a wonderful asset.

Sulberto21 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Best performance of the season from him today. He was in their faces and got stuck in. Grealish and Mcginn are the only other ones who have been getting stuck in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 21, he's one of our most valuable assets IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rightdm00 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Great performance until the last 10 minutes where it seemed like the nerves started showing through. At 21 that's not surprising. That type of pressure packed performance is how you grow as a player. More of the same Douglas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_Afro Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Did pretty well today. He has so much potential. He could be very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 One of his best performances for us in the league. Super clearance off the line as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Probably our 2nd best player behind Grealish IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Pangloss Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Honestly wasn't massively impressed all round but he worked hard and put in a decent defensive display. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you mean but we're working with scraps right now. Anyone showing some bravery to play will get a huge thumbs from me. Jack can't do it all on his own. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 I thought he played very well, one of our more comfortable players on the ball which is what we need more of. Just need to find the right midfield combination, I don't think it's helping us or our players at all that it seems every week we seem to have a different combination of players playing in the middle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted December 26, 2019 Moderator Share Posted December 26, 2019 He worked very hard today, he still has moments off the ball when he switches off, but he can move the ball really quickly and he put in a great shift today. I bang on about it a bit, but he's still really young and there's a lot of pressure in being asked to step up into McGinn's shoes - but he made a good start to it today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam2003 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Also loved when he lashed it into the crowd to time waste. We need to be doing some more smart/dickish things like this when protecting a lead late on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted December 26, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted December 26, 2019 You can't put a price on goal line clearances but any player in situ is going to throw his leg at a ball coming at the goal line. I am surprised at so many positive comments on here. I thought he was woeful. Poor passing and the number of unnecessary fouls he gave away was criminal. Time and again we were put under pressure from fouls he gave away. I thought he was a liability most of the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbcuk Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Great game from him, that his line clearance got us the 3 points as if that went in couldn’t see us scoring 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
