Mrmason69 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 He looked very good on his debut. He gets forward well(watch out for CC antipathy for attacking players) and follows the game. A good start. Well done that main Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrysgame Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Looked like your typical Dutch defender, composed on the ball with a good technical ability. Obviously followed his instructions to the letter, so not too much movement with the ball, but think we will see him pushing forward more, his cross field passes were accurate an a welcome addition. Been a while since I have seen a debut like that at Hillsboro' Have we just uncovered a real gem along the lines of Nillson! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan93 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Think it's stupid to start calling him 'class' after one game. He needs to be judged on his defending first. He could have been much better for their goal. Looked very composed on the ball though. Needs to be carefull with the crossfield balls because if it didn't come off, Forest had an attack. I actually think he'll be wasted at CB. He could play that Dier role like he does at Spurs. Good positive signing and I'm sure he'll get better. The defence looked solid. Let's keep with it!

Guest wilyfox Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Early signs look encouraging. It would certainly be nice if one of our overseas recruits hit the ground running and deliver for a change after disappointments in recent years.

SheffWed-1867 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Looked steady and solid apart from diving in for the goal, will only get better I feel, hope he doesn't think we're booing him when we shout jooooooost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brian joicey Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 to be fair, forest offered little threat up front ( in terms of pace,bullying etc) encouraging signs though nontheless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shezzas left peg Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Played well for a debut, some good touches and passes couple of minor mistakes but looks like he could forge a very very effective and solid partnership alongside tom lees if we can keep them both fit.

beloved_aunt Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Good: He can clearly pass, that 60 yard ball pinged cross field to Wallace was ace. Bad: Wasn't he responsible for the Forest goal? Went to ground too early and gave their forward time to shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash77 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 (edited) Could end up our eric dier or a fitter version of hutch who could hold midfield if required, not sure his best position yet due to his passing ability Edited September 11, 2017 by Ash77 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made a split second decision to try and stretch for a wonder tackle. In hindsight hed have been better staying up, but that sort of thing comes with age and experience. Think hes going to be a class player personally and there was a lot went on before he lunged that contributed to the goal. I hope he doesnt dwell on that as a mistake, as it was a small one and ended up being inconsequential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fpowl Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Apart from going to ground too easily for their goal a faultless debut. looks very good and the way we play where our centre backs having their fair share of possession I think this lad will be excellent for us. he looked to blance out back four perfectly. He's a threat in their box. At 23 am excellent bit of business. cant wait to see more of him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owlZfan84 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Very unlucky not to get a debut goal too. I can see him getting his fair share when he's up for set-plays. The way he plays when he has the ball at his feet reminds of Majid Bougherra. Effortless. Really think he'll prove to be top signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
