abdulaziz1 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 If he got a good offer I’d sell him. He’s been a good signing generally, and we need a squad depth, but he’s better more advanced, so with Buendia back, Rogers, Ramsey and even McGinn I think we have a good depth there. But if we got a more proper CM or DCM, I think it’s what’s we need especially with Kamara not featuring for a while. It’s not that we don’t need him, it will be a tough season to maintain what we’ve done this season and most likely play in a tougher European competition wether it was CL or Europa. But if he could generate some amount I won’t be against that. For now hopefully he continues helping us on our goals, and then wether he stays or go I think both will be good for the club a way or another.

maltesemike Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 (edited) He looked much better second half but still looks like he’s running through treacle. Is he overweight? Why does he look so laboured? Fair play for running back to dispossess Kudus, that must have killed him. He then threads an excellent through ball to Diaby for the goal too.

The_Steve Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Capable of the sublime and the baffling. He’s got a lot of talent. It’s a difficult one. Perhaps it’s a case of finding his position as in the circumstances we are needing to rotate his position. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 He's an important member of the squad though and I thought was really good second half in a deeper position. Need to keep and build strength in depth if we are going.to.compete for trophies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepyvillian Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Youri can sometimes seem almost like a luxury we can't afford, especially playing in a less attacking role. His lack of pace is really evident at moments in games. I would be tempted to play young Tim, who would maybe provide that ballast which we look short of in the absence of Kamara and McGinn.

Mazrim Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 His best quality is the quick through balls which can be devastating. And of course his long range shooting which we don't see as much. Tielemans is the kind of player that feeds off the team. When we're in control and playing attacking football he's a force multiplier. When we're struggling to control a game and under the cosh a bit, the complete opposite. I'm a fan, but he shouldn't play every game or every situation.

Borderline a " luxury " player at times, however I do get some of the points. Yes, very good player, capable on his day, but would/could his wages be better placed in a more dynamic player who can give us more all round and long term? Maybe... In fairness though, there are time she has looked very energetic, but he seems one who needs a number of games to really get up to speed, and needs to be played in a certain area or just nowhere near as effective. You could probably actually get a decent transfer fee for him too. Edited March 18 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would also sell if we got a good offer, he costs an awful lot on wages no to be an automatic first choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much sums up his game - equal parts sublime and ridiculous That sprint and dispossess is why I think many on here are wrong to jump on the 'he plays like an old man' bandwagon. He has limitations sure but he's not that bad physically. He's shown plenty of fight for us IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
