crookesowl Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Definately has some talent but what was that today. Work rate compared to Fletcher was poor and whilst he showed a few good touches he just didn’t seem bothered. Also what was going on with his substitution? He seemed to say to the bench he needed to come off, and looked to be struggling. He then gets subbed off and seems disgusted and throws a paddy. Strange all round. Frustratingly we lost our shape when he came off too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miffed Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Completely agree with the last sentence. Fletcher looked isolated with very little support after Joao came off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronio Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 I thought he played better today than in recent weeks. His ball retention up top was much better. I can understand why he was frustrated at coming off. Its a good sign for me. He will be more eager for sure next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was "frustrated" at coming off...I fail to see why, he signalled something to the bench 5 minutes before...If he was signalling he was struggling...Why the frustration? If he was signalling he was OK..why the the f.ookin' aimless wandering about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pale Rider Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 He has talent, but is at the age when he should be the first name on the team sheet. The fact that he justifiabley doesn’t get picked every week speaks volumes about his attitude. At risk of going down as a wasted career unless he gets his house in order. Unfortunately I am not convinced he will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshy Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 He indicated to the bench he wanted to come off. Knock perhaps, or, he'd had enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Talented bloke but needs a rocket up his backside. His body language today at times was like a stroppy teenager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swfc-dan Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 His hold up play was good but needs to show more effort still. Everyone else showed it with tackling back, think that's why Bruce yanked him. He's got genuine quality just frustrating as he needs to want it more. Wish he'd throw his head at crosses once in a while and he'd score more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torres Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Most talented forward we have, but the heart and the head of a spoilt toddler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clud17 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Dam right he's frustrating. Acts like billy big boots when he's scored a couple and thinks he can stroll his way around the pitch with his socks half pulled up. Drives me mad, in fact anyone who slopes around drives me flippingmad. If your wearing the shirt put some bloody effort in ffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bulgaria Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 I bet he is a nightmare to live with. Imagine having the last slice of toast or leaving him no milk for his cuppa. He would be stomping about the house for hours, even though there is a shop 100 meters away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Starling Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 He has talent but is so lazy and his reaction to play tells why he isnt even a regular in an average Championship team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's such a frustrating player, when in form he's fantastic and a real asset but the levels of inconsistency are why he hasn't pushed on from when we first signed him.
