nick76 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Bit worried about him, has some real lovely dribbles but not as effective or create chances for others that his talent deserves. A bit soft in 50/50 balls as well. Need more from him than a highlights clip because he has obviously showed us in patches this season. Had some good goals, just need more creation from him from that right side especially when Jack is out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 He came closest to scoring and once he went off we had no threat or even out ball down that right side, just aimless crosses from deep from the left. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He produced one moment of brilliance but we need far more consistency from him if hes the player that can take us to the next level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyM3000 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Sometimes does too much but then you get the big chance he had where his too much turned into magic. Still looks our most dangerous player with Jack out, which is worrying as he wasn't great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Such a frustrating player. Got all the ability in the world but his decision making is shocking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 There will always be elements of his game that frustrate but I'm a sucker for a player with a lovely first touch and he certainly has it. Was in and out tonight but as said very close to scoring from excellent close control. As said before his assists and goals output is pretty good considering he only became a regular started from mid December. Do wish he'd hit a better free kick and corner though. That's certainly one thing Hourihane has over the midfielders we have playing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he went off our only attacking option was aimless crosses from Targett or McGinn from our left side. Would have been good to have kept some more balance and threat from the right.

villa89 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 He's the type of player you want coming off the bench to change a game. That's the role he'd have at Leicester or Everton or spurs. If we want to get competitive for europe he would be a squad player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is somewhat similar with cash but at least he occasionally overlaps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure he didn't score a single goal in 22 sub appearances for Lyon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurtsimonw Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Definitely not the problem. He will lose the ball, make bad decisions, but we didn't expect that we were signing Ronaldo or Messi. He's improved our first XI and after Jack is about the only player in the side that can make things happen on his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes capable of brilliance but its always just one or two moments in a game and the rest of time hes poor. All this talk about Barkley being the problem but since Traore has been a regular in the team results have declined and thats not just down to him, the form of a lot of players has dipped.

The results improved once barkley was initially dropped. Then we brought barkley back and then grealish got injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
