Beholder Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Was the first chance for me to have a look at him tonight. Ok he looks a good long passer, but he wasn't as assured as i was expecting after all the praise on sat.. Still got some developing to do. And I'm not sure if this was his fault or just the defensive line, but they sprung our offside trap time and again. Maybe he was better on sat but on that performance he doesn't look prem class just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldrick Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Not as good as Saturday but very good on the ball and distribution gives us something extra Just dives in a bit too soon on tackles for me so could be liable for giving away silly free kicks So far so good though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His performance on Saturday was massively overrated based on his passing not his defending. Looks promising though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, over the 2 games he's done very well, and looks a good prospect. I can also see him scoring a few from corners The big issue is that £4m does not buy you an awful lot of footballer these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trev Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Thought he did well again today tbf. Liked the way he stepped out with the ball and played some good passes, especially second half. Won a few important headers too. I think his "diving in" is a slight issue, but overall he is a good player with bags of potential. How old is he?

I'm sure he's glad you've cast your expert eye over him . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He pinged a few nice balls out to wallace which is a good thing to have in our locker. Just sometimes i thought we looked shaky compared to Lees/ Loovens.

GoldGigsChris Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I can see him being a cult player for us. But before we get to carried away with the juicedddddd chants, let's learn that his name is pronounced Yoast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darra Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 He signed about a week ago,probably living in a hotel room out of a suitcase and has played two games in 4 days. Think he's allowed a below par performance based on this 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to be as calm in the tackle as he is on the ball to avoid being Joost Van Stones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike312 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 First match I've seen him tonight. Plenty of promise there. 2 games in 3 days in a foreign country and therefore league, new team-mates I thought he did well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s6 owl Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Bit of a rough diamond but i can easily see him developing into a cracking player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmonbones Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 It's far less easy to play in the rain. It's an excuse yes, but it didn't help. Also we did face a team more willing and able to attack, and Brentford were hard to get possession off, because they retained the ball very well. It was a different kind of test and he didn't do shabby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
