lexicon Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Interesting video, thanks for posting it up @MaVilla Looks like he's got nice feet - good close control and touch, plus the strength to hold the ball up. Passing seemed to be hit and miss, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m both grateful and amazed they can find that much footage. But most of all: I marvel at the music. This one and its hip hop panpipe dreams takes the prize. And now I can’t stop thinking about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I like this lad. He’s off the ball running is really intelligent and moves defenders about a lot. Frees up space for the likes of Grealish and El Ghazi to move in too. Hope to see more of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Good impact tonight. He hasn’t shown much on the ball yet but his off the ball movement has really helped the team. Hopefully he can keep getting minutes under his belt, and perhaps can eventually come on when we are winning and not when chasing a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyp Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Americans always tend to work their absolute nuts off when they come to play in the PL don't they. Think they've got this inferiority complex going on because Americans when it comes to football are kind of sniggered and sneered at a bit. We don't take them overly serious. Serious work ethic though. I remember Dempsey and McBride. Tough as nails. Leave every thing out there. Hope this kid goes well for us, he probably has one eye on Qatar 2022. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenjiOgiwara Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 I like him. BUT can someone explain to me why people call him a striker, when he's listed as a midfielder and drops very deep (as a midfielder does)? Is he a midfielder or a striker? He got subbed for Trez, but I am not wise to what position Trez played today, whether it was a winger role or more forward pairing with El Ghazi.

Wouldn't be at all surprised to see him drop out the match day squad when Samatta rolls up. Great experience for the kid though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Bearing in mind he's more naturally a winger/midfielder then I think he has a good chance of keeping his place in the squad even with Samatta and another striker likely joining. Could take Lansbury's place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only played a handful of games as a striker due to our lack of strikers at U23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also had very good chest control, is also a very fast little player. Hope we see more of him. Edited January 22, 2020 by Dave-R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just posted in Sammata thread that it's one thing I'm looking forward to with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenjiOgiwara Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Kinda mental to be coming through the club in the U23 as a midfielder, then ending up playing as a striker in the Premier League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five Ken McNaughts Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Already got people in Trinity Road clapping when he cranks up his warm-up. That's what sheer work-rate gets you. Keep it up, Indy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Showed more composure and assuredness in one chest control than I think I have seen from Trezeguet all season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
