offalyowl Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Regardless of what he done during the summer he is still our best player and the only one with the magic touch that can create a chance out of nothing and dropping him lately not helping his confidence but he trying his best and will pick off where he left off last season as the season gets on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the club handled his saga fantastically at the time but the the time goes on, the more I think we should have cashed in our chips and moved on.

I'm more inclined to disagree with the 'he's still trying' comment. He's trying in respect of he's trying to make Fernando Forestieri look good. When he came on at Blackburn he was lazy and didn't get back behind the ball. Its difficult for me to comment on the Forest game too much as i didn't go but from looking at the highlights it looked like he was only bothered about creating something for himself rather than the team...

These things never end well and there is a reason why clubs get rid of players when they become unsettled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF are you on about mate? That feller put him in centre mid where he plays every single week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you think he would get 15 up front? He has scored one in four playing up front for Watford and us (7 in 31 last season). Is is it because you think he would do so much better with Fletch than he did with our strikers last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the 4-2-3-1 formation the 2 midfield players tend sit in front of the back four controlling the midfield and allow the three midfielders playing in front of them to do the attacking with the striker. Lee is best making runs into the box so in a 4-2-3-1 I'd be playing him in the three off the striker, not in the two midfielders that have to keep their position for most of the game. As Lee would have to spend most of the game staying outside the box. But that's just my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'm in a minority but I have zero tolerance for what he did. I don't think the minority is as few as we might think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will he hits those heights again, playing for us, very doubtful in my eyes. This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the highlights not show the winning goal then where he plays a ridiculously good hidden reverse pass for Fletcher to give Lee for the winner? I'll tell you what, lets ship him out and replace him with Nuhiu who obviously wants to play for us!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PopePiusX Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 That there is a relish in some below-par (for him) performances from some quarters is troublesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a good pass I'll give you that. But when i've seen him play recently he's been no where near the player we know he can be. Would you say that assessment is fair? Also, why do you have to always bring Nuhiu into a thread, its so boring. Haven't you got some playdough or an action man you can entertain yourself with rather than trying to speak with grown ups?

PopePiusX Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 His performances have not been for the lack of trying though, he's just not in great form. Also, he hasn't been as awful as has been made out, just lots of the things he's tried haven't come off and he's missed a couple of chances.

He doesn't have the same industrious nature about him anymore. He was ambling across the pitch on Tuesday night when he came on. I wouldnlt be suprised to see him out of the team more often. Especially if Reach continues in the same vein... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't go on Tuesday so I can't comment - and also I wasn't really talking about you. If he displayed a lack of effort then this is more troublesome, but I didn't get that impression from any of the games I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnarwolf Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 We still look far better with him on the pitch than off it, and he's still getting in all the right positions, he's just on a bad run of form and he still looks like one of our best players regardless of whether he's matching last seasons form, the desire for him to do bad from some fans, just so they can take the high ground is astounding, he apologised for what he did and moved on, I think you lot should do the same and stop reading in to every little thing he does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
