Tom Wheatley Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 What does everyone think to Pelupessy's first few months and will Jos fit him into the system next season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beholder Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 When Bannan hutch and Lee are fit, he will be on the bench. Nothing against him but he is not on their level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Xxxxxxxxcxcc Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Hopefully he's got a bit more about him than shown so far. Next season will be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowl Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I've not been impressed so far. I really hope he can improve because he certainly needs to. I'm not sure what his strengths are at the moment. He seems whole-hearted, I suppose. The Championship seems too fast for him, and is no doubt faster than the Eredivisie. Perhaps that is something that he'll adjust to.

StudentOwl Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 If you combine tackles and interceptions into one category and class it as "defensive actions", he's our second most prolific player at this on average per 90 minutes (behind Sam Hutchinson). But I suspect because he doesn't tear around crunching the opponents, people won't notice that and say he doesn't do a lot. Shrug. It is what it is 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzuki_San Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 He’s not very strong. His first touch isn’t great and his awareness could be better...his decision making/reacting to danger isn’t up to the pace of the Championship. Can all of these be improved upon?

striker Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Always difficult for a young player to come to a new country, a very competitive league and a team who is struggling. I would assess him as being OK so far and has been said expect him to spend some time on the bench ones Hutchinson and Bannan back up to full speed. I think with the experience of this year and a pre-season, we will see a better player next year. One thing I have been impressed with is his attitude, doesn't let his head drop and can be quite vocal on the pitch. I think he will come good and develop into a decent player, will help him to work with and watch the likes of Hutchinson and Bannan first hand to understand what this league is about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spike1867 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Give the lad a chance. He got thrown in to a really tough situation playing in a team low on confidence and shipping goals. He'll improve playing alongside the likes of Hutchinson and Bannan. I could see him being a bit like Lopez in that he will quietly go about his business and let the others do their stuff. I like his attitude on the pitch. My main hope for him is that by rubbing shoulders with Hutchinson he might pick up a bit from him and be well capable of filling Hutchinson shoes when inevitably Sam misses games.

torres Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Attitude wise - he can't be faulted. Never hides, always looking for the ball. Seems to communicate well Looks a determined individual All of which SHOULD be a given - but sadly we know it's not with more than the fair share of players Actual influence on a game - i can't say i can give him more than 5/10 so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gypsyowl Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 got to give him chance to settle into english game, similar to JVA they've been playing in quite poor & not very physical leagues compared to championship, got to give them time, both joey & JVA are good ages to be able to come good players for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRADDO Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Like Van Aken, he's been very ordinary. The jury's out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sultan_Pepper Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I've been quite impressed with him. Took him a few games to get up to speed and he's had a revolving door of a midfield around him. Better on the ball than Jones, better in the tackle than Bannan. Backup/replacement for Lee depending on the outlook for his hip I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Hooper Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Kante would struggle to look good next to Butterfield and Jones. I'll leave judgment until I've seen him next to Hutch/Bannan/Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch McLovin Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Improvement on Jones and Buttercup. Other than that not really good enough thus far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazapeps Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 If we're honest he looks awful. No form of creativity and gives the ball away needlessly at times, often in really bad areas. His performances have been worse than Jones and Butterfield but because he's foreign and relatively new it clouds a lot of people's judgment.
