But if I had to guess I'd say he's going to be a very good player for us. JJ more of a ball carrier at pace, Rogers more of a unit who can hold the ball up and bring ppl in etc imo.

Yeah but it's already obvious he's better than JJ by some distance and I'm now ok with selling him to Newcastle... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not lanky ( like a Crouch )really but long and lean. Edited March 6 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So let's just say he's between 6ft 2 to 6 ft 4. Edited March 6 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enda Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Still early days for him, but he didn't make a massive impression today. He did look more concerned about getting back than he did last week, but his defensive positioning was poor. He will be a good player. Not quite there yet.

useless Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I think he had a quiet game rather than a bad game per se, we as a team were defending deep, and not bringing our attackers into the game, other than via long balls, so a lot our play bypassed he and Tielemans, the few times he was able to get on the ball I thought he did okay. The plan was obviously to keep the game as tight as possible, and to conserve as much energy as possible, this is what allowed us to start him and Iro in the first place, as we didn't need our strongest eleven for such a game plan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I was a bit surprised he was given a start. Emery clearly has him part of his long term plans. It is an exciting opportunity for him to progress as a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osirus Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Not concerned about him at all, he’s got all the raw physical assets needed to play the at the top level. Just needs to work on the tactical aspect and become more familiar with his role/the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
