Sheffield United as very physical side, he struggled in this game but showed how important it is to have a good attacking FB. Should start over Young and Shaw for now.
Apart from the goal what “attacking threat” did he show?Sheffield United as very physical side, he struggled in this game but showed how important it is to have a good attacking FB. Should start over Young and Shaw for now.
Yeah, I agree he should play over Young but he was poor today overall.Apart from the goal what “attacking threat” did he show?
Goal itself which was the biggest contribution and a moment that changed the game. Won penalty in Europa league. He is still adapting to the higher standards. He is much more threat than this going by his U23 games.Apart from the goal what “attacking threat” did he show?
So he in reality hasn’t really shown more of an attacking threat than Young or Shaw so people saying he should play over them is just due to some romanticism or dislike of the other options.Goal itself which was the biggest contribution and a moment that changed the game.

Shaw offers f*ck all considering he’s never fit.So he in reality hasn’t really shown more of an attacking threat than Young or Shaw so people saying he should play over them is just due to some romanticism or dislike of the other options.
He wasn’t good today at all and in reality he has played 1 pretty good game since he’s come in to the team and even in that game he wasn’t that much of an attacking influence that he shamed Shaw or Young. Generally so far from what I’ve seen he looks promising but Shaw and possibly You g offer us more.

This is what bugs me about stats. Anyone that watched the game would have seen for the first half he was shitting bricks. Absolute deer in headlights. In fact he was so much of a liability that Jones took it upon himself to cover his channel on all occasions.Tweet

Very deceptive. He was the worst player on the pitch (besides Pereira who deserves his own bar) for 70mins of the game.Tweet

That's what he needs. Yes, he had a very difficult afternoon but it's a learning curve.Massive learning experience, had a really difficult game but kept going and scored a cracking debut goal.
Stats eh? They really can be deceiving. He was awful today.Tweet

He will learn from this. First start away from OT.This is what bugs me about stats. Anyone that watched the game would have seen for the first half he was shitting bricks.

He couldn’t trap the ball, he couldn’t position himself, he was being tossed around and there were moments where his body just froze with the ball at his feet. It was a glaringly scary day for him until he scored.
I’m very glad he had this day though. He’s never going to be this scared on a football pitch ever again.
Yeah thought that was a nice touch from him and Greenwood as well.I like him a lot. Instead of celebrating the occasion of his first ever goal he was straight back up the field trying to get everyone fired up. We need that focus.
