If he wants to play every game then he should have realised by now that whatever time he spends on the pitch he has to be giving 100% effort. If he doesn't give 100% then he won't start. He looks like a spoilt kid sometimes. He's got back to thinking he's a superstar. He plays for the team and should remember that.

Having said that.....the central forward role isn't his best. No excuse for not running himself into the ground when he comes on.  

 

Hes done well in the others, yet gets minimal reward

 

turns in a poor one and the knives are out

He's good enough to have scored 3 in 8 champ games.

 

But is kept out of the side by Nuhiu; whose scored 1 in a defeat where he was sent off.

 

Like winter 15/16, all over again.

One falls short on attitude and application, the other on ability - personally I think it’s clear neither are good enough.

You're not judging it on his efforts last night. 

 

And before you start, this is not some pro Nuhiu/Joao bashing thread. 

 

Lucas was poor last night, whilst Adthe had a good game. That doesn't mean Lucas isn't good enough or that Adthe is the second coming of Ronaldo. 

 

It's an assessment of their performances from last night.

Definitely sulking, went straight down the tunnel.

I am a big fan of his but it seems he is high maintenance in terms of temperament and position.

If we get Hooper and Winnall back, a very big If, then it might be worth seeing how much we can get for Joao in January.

I like Joao but he was dreadful when he came on last night. No wonder we hardly see him in a central striking position - that is the reason why.

 

Prefer him when he is running at defences from deep. His work rate in previous games has been good enough. However, last night his attitude was wrong and he looked disinterested and that needs addressing big time.

He needs to be starting. He's not an sub. Give him a run & he'll continue to score goals.

 

Not surprised he's pi$$ed off. No way Nuhiu should be keeping him out of the team.

Takes 5 touches to get the ball under control, once he's untangled his legs, then either falls over or gives up.

 

Weak.

Bambi on ice .....

Like him though 

But not to rely on to get the "job done"

Nuhiu keeps delivering what is asked of him ..

And the fans recognised this with his Stadium standing ovation when he was substituted

AT 2-O!!!.........

:picnic:

In that case maybe Jos needs to ask for something different!  Standing ovation was far more to do with 'feel good' factor of 2-0 lead than any acknowledgement of a centre forward masterclass.

Joao is gonna have to start putting the graft in with Winnall coming back, one thing your gonna get with Sam is 100% and I’m not his greatest fan but as an option off the bench he could be more than useful
