Here's hoping, one of the few players in the reserves I have seen massive talent in.Calling it right now. He'll have an excellent debut today.
I too think he's a massive talent and is a perfect fit for this formation.Here's hoping, one of the few players in the reserves I have seen massive talent in.
Exactly my take. He's young enough to get another shot at it later.Didn't look ready at all. Far too early for him. Perhaps in a couple of years' time he will be a more sophisticated player.
The 18 year old didn't look ready on his debut? Shocking. Or was it just a bad game like the rest of the team? Didn't exactly play along world beaters to help calm his nerves or anything. That game wasn't a benchmark for anything except a bad blotch on the more seasoned players record.Didn't look ready at all. Far too early for him.

Agree with you though I am surprised he didn't change to 4 at the back at half time tbh.He wasn't great by any stretch of the imagination, but I probably would have kept him on over James to be honest.
Probably the thing I was most disappointed with yesterday to be honest. We're supposedly playing 5-2-1-2 because we don't have the personnel, but the back 5 yesterday contained a number of players who weren't comfortable in their roles or, as in Janko's case, probably weren't quite ready.Agree with you though I am surprised he didn't change to 4 at the back at half time tbh.
Yep, it was a set of players not used to each other as it is, some rusty squad players, some returning from injuries. Had enough to deal as it is without getting used to a new formation in slightly unfamiliar roles as well.Probably the thing I was most disappointed with yesterday to be honest.

Wilson on for Powell was poor. As you say it left us weaker defensively and it just meant we had one more striker that we were struggling to get the ball to with one less midfielder to get it to him.Yep, it was a set of players not used to each other as it is, some rusty squad players, some returning from injuries.

I think LVG didn't know these players properly and underestimated the opposition tbh. Still not shifting at half time was bit bizarre and even the subs weird. Tired Anderson was the only protection the defense was left with in the last 30 minutes and no outlet to pass too unless they hoofed it.
Not ever been that good since he was promoted to the U21s.Not been that good this season tbh.
I didn't really fault him last season as he isn't a winger. He should only play as a rb.Not ever been that good since he was promoted to the U21s.
Half expected a loan when I saw this thread bumped. Hope he goes straight into the first XI.Joining Bolton on loan.
Same here. He's not suited to playing as a winger, but he got to play there last season as we had Varela who was defensively reliable whilst Janko had pace, power, and good wide deliveries in him. However, I still don't see him as a winger, and he's definitely more suited to play as a full back. I just hope that he gets to play at right back and develop his defensive skills even more.Very interesting. I hope they use him as a right back option
RW according to whoscoredIs he playing at rb or rw?
Has played rb, rm and lm so farIs he playing at rb or rw?
