RUMBELOWS91 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 (edited) This won't be popular, but giving him 25 minutes pretty much as a winger is destroying him. He needs to play down the middle, close to the other striker or not at all. Why push Reach central and Joao out wide? Why not leave Reach out wide and bring Abdi on for Wallace? Baffling.

OwlofOliveGrove Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Like watching a new born giraffe at times. He's got pace but never gets to use it, especially on the wing. Decent athlete but not a great footballer really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorfolkNChance Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 I felt sorry for him when he stuck that free header over the bar totally unchallenged........ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeadonowl Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 No idea why CC brought him on. I even burst out laughing at his five yard pass to Fox which he just kicked into touch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why leave Wallace on, why not sub Fox off after he was booked or at least after he hauled his man down on the halfway line and the ref gave him another chance? The list of baffling decisions is endless but the real problems are apparently injuries and referees! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another great advert for our coaching staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got pace, but he's not used to it....like he's driving a car that he can't control FFS. UTO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He`s done nothing in two and a half seasons to warrant starting games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying if he's going to come on as sub he needs to play down the middle, because as has been pointed out he looks like bambi on ice when he picks up the all deep and has to think about what to do with it. I still think he offers something different to any of our other strikers playing centrally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldishowl Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Don't know what the ref gave but he didn't give a goal kick. Either a foul or offside, so it wouldn't have counted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopparberg Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 His career here isn’t going very well. He’s been loaned out previously and gets pushed out wide. He himself and the club need to decide what their aspirations are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IstillhateSteveBould Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 I have felt sorry for Joao quite often. Especially after the United game when he did enough to earn a start but still didn't get it. I think he's been poorly managed tbh, but he certainly doesn't do himself any favours when he comes on and plays like he did tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
