PaulC Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I find it annoying that he refuses to cross with his right foot. Watkins must have been frustrated as hell today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DCJonah Posted November 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 21, 2020 I just can't get my head around the attitude from some towards traore. It started as soon as he signed. So strange. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I thought he was very good today. Passing and crossing was good. Good movement and positioning. Once he gets used to the pace again and properly fit he'll be lethal. Legs went a bit after his exertions for Burkina Faso. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyh29 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 (edited) Other than a decent ball in for our goal , I thought he was shit personally ... some of that can be attributed to him not being fully integrated with the team yet but he also needs some match fitness.

PieFacE Posted November 21, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted November 21, 2020 Reminds me of Trez early last season tbh. Looks okay in glimpses, but also looks a million miles off it in terms of match fitness and adjusting to the pace of the game. Think it could be a while until he's up and running properly.

Will extra match fitness magically transform him so that he can use his right foot? Otherwise this guy will be the easiest player in the league to defend against. So predictable.

Very strange if so, couldn't imagine you posting anything delete-worthy. What were your thoughts out of interest? Was he a player you'd seen much of?

sne Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Good delivery on some of his set pieces but £17m or whatever is a lot to pay for meh. He wasn't someone I was keen for us to sign and so far he's been passable maybe during the little he's played. Not sure he brings enough to the table. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdman Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 He did OK I thought. I think would benefit from a run in the team. His work off the ball is my biggest concern but then the whole team were guilty of that today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So strange. Barely played any minutes, in brief cameos has had more than encouraging moments as well. I find it utterly bizarre that opinions on players based on absolutely nothing tangible can gain so much traction. As you say it's weird behaviour.

KenjiOgiwara Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 (edited) Wad a weird signing from the bat, but I'm confused by negative reactions today. I thought he was a positive aspect of the match today. He looks better centrally than wide mind, but hard to say without more minutes.

AndyM3000 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 17m is about the going rate for a decent squad player for where we want to be. Don't expect too much, he's going to be hit and miss. As a team we look much better against teams that try and play and allow us more space. They played 5 at the back with 3 CMs, they didn't allow us much space.

Vive_La_Villa Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I thought he did ok. You can tell he is going take a while to get completely up to speed with this league but he is still better than anything else we had on the bench. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
