H2Owl Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Anyone who went today how did he play? Was listening to the radio and Brian Laws wasn't impressed by him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowl Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 He wasn't great, particularly in the first half. Second to everything and just really struggling to impose himself. 2nd half was a moderate improvement for him. The pace of this league seems too much for him at the moment, but he doesn't seem like a bad footballer. He'll need a few months to adjust but I'll expect him to do that.

Bouncing Owl Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 I wasn’t impressed with him against Birmingham - thought he looked a mile off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pastor Kidneys Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Plays more sideways balls than Darren Potter. Nowhere near the pace of the championship. Has time to improve but not a great start here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leono Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Was dreadful in the first half. Seemed completely off the pace and kept losing possession/misplacing passes. Better in the second half, but still not convinced that if we were only making one signing in the whole transfer window that this is player we should have brought in.

NeonLeon Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 From the bits of the Dutch League I’ve seen he’s gunna need to pick up the pace a lot. The intensity over there is anywhere near the Championship from what I’ve seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We needed a left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wisenightowl Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Was it him who had that awful shot in the second half where he dragged it badly wide from about 20 yards with nobody near him? I watched on iFollow and the pic is blurry at best, so hard to see if it was him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weshallovercome Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 For the second game in a row I didn't notice him on the pitch, so not sure how he played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Willow Owl Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Before crucifying the guy give him a chance FFS. He could not have come in at a worse time with all players missing. There were ten other players out there that were equally poor. A new record for Owlstalk, scapegoat after 2 matches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A new record for Owlstalk, scapegoat after 2 matches I'm only planning on crucifying him if he scores a hat-trivk of own goals to relegate us. Going to stick to having an opinion on an internet forum for now though, but not ruling out a biblical murder plot if things don't improve. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leono Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Not slating the player, he could be an OK backup for the likes of Jones. But it seems crazy to bring in a player like this who has no experience of this league as we are heading into a relegation scrap. He is going to take a while to ramp up, and we needed someone who could hit the ground running. Totally the wrong time to bring him in IMO, especially as that is all we got in the entire transfer window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westfield Owl Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 (edited) He should get a clean slate in the summer, regardless of what happens this season. He’s new to English football. Put him in a team that aren’t in a relegation battle, with most of our first team squad wiped out by injuries, and see how he gets on. Might be too early to judge at the moment with the team currently as it is. Edited February 10, 2018 by The Captain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
