Mr. Tom Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 So is it just me that thought he actually looked a bit kicky when he came on? Pretty sure I saw him whistled for couple of fairly narky fouls. Got a reyt scowl on him an’ all. Genuinely thought he might have to calm it down a bit! Did well overall, hope to see more. Nice one young ‘un! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUMBELOWS91 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 On 25/01/2020 at 19:11, LondonOwl313 said: He's too small, can't see him making it as a pro. Small players who make it like Scholes had a bit of bite about their game but this lad looks like a child. At 19 he should have been smashing the gym to get an advantage... new bodybuilders can gain 20-25 pounds of muscle in year 1 yet this lad looks the same size as he did 18 months ago against Sunderland. So either he's not training properly or more likely he doesn't have the right genes for it. It's harsh but it's the reality Not a great idea to be hitting the weights while you're still growing if you want to maintain muscle elasticity etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatladfromchap Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Give this kid more game time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Hope he starts against Brentford. Made a couple of good tackles, lovely cross in and was just getting stuck in which I love to see. Did more in his short appearance than Bannan or Pessy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_1 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Rather have him playing than Joey. Feels like a little battler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gizowl Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Better than any of the three midfielders that started tonight, those that say Bannan is premier class got your answer tonight ,another worth a start is Waldock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad_owl Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 I think we need to remember he was playing against Man City, up against world class players. Did well for me all things considered. Id rather play him than Joey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danish Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Lovely cross in the last 10 minutes that Fletcher did his best to try and reach. More game time please. I'm sure he will be needed next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been polite mate, probably one of only a few he new the name of, said we were a good side. Face facts, City went through without breaking sweat, probably work harder in training.

scilly owl Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 That Billy what’s his face that came on for Chelsea against Liverpool was very young and slight but he wasn’t half a belting player. Im delighted to see youngsters like that given a chance. The are so pleased to be given the opportunity so consequently they don’t swan around stealing a wage.

Owls-Fan Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Thought Hunt did well and wasn’t bullied out the game by one of the best teams in Europe. I’d like to see a midfield 3 of Bannan, Luongo and Hunt. Murphy, FF and Fletcher up top. Hopefully Luongo will be fit again soon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My worry are players in the Championship who can only play by roughing up, players like Chris Martin, if the young lad can handle it then hopefully he will have a bright future.

cowl Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 3 appearances now and he's looked better with each one. Lovely ball into Fletcher! He clearly wasn't ready when he made his debut for us 18 months ago, but that's the way it is with the kids as it can be hard to predict how they'll take to the step-up. He certainly looks much closer now. Yet to appear for us in the league so that'll be the next test for him. Hopefully we can pitch him in before the end of this season.

malek Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 What a difference to his first team debut in League Cup win against Sunderland last season. He was brave, positive and can be proud of his performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 (edited) He's obviously got something about him, he's still very young and he's been presumably training with the first team quite a lot since his debut last season, by all accounts his strength his ability on the ball (we saw a glimpse of that with the ball to Fletcher at the end of the city game), but the especially pleasing thing is he doesn't seem to get bullied, which is great for a lad of his age and size. Would love to see him involved more in the coming weeks, would be great if he can cement a place as we'll have some gaps in centre midfield for him next season, with presumably no Hutchinson, Pelupessy, and maybe Lee Edited March 5, 2020 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
