Inspector Lestrade Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 (edited) Seemed to have a fascination for getting himself and the ball in to the box as quick as possible and looking for options all the time. First impression ... play him next week from the start. Edited February 2, 2020 by Inspector Lestrade 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRightSide Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 He’s literally played for 30 mins. Forgive me for not offering an opinion just yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anlaby Owl Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Agree with most of what has been said. Weve been totally one dimensional (even when we were gettting results) We play in front of defences instead of having a player in line who we can play through or to do the playing through to an oncoming runner. I Fully expect this to take an unexpected twist that most don't seem to have forseen yet (an extremely positive one)...that is as long as monk doesnt discourage the 'positivity' in de cruz.

Guest LittleG Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Judging a player after 20 mins following a mainly inept performance from the rest of them, even I could have made a difference yesterday. Ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of Paul William's early 90's. Looks like he loves to run at defences, one touch pass and run into box. thumbs up from me so far. Gives us a different dynamic. Paul Williams? The Paul Williams I remember was a tireless grafter who would chase lost causes, run the channels and be a constant pest to their defenders. Da Cruz just doesn't look like that kind of player at all.

Ridiculous. Let us chlutch at straws where we can. Not a lot else to brighten yesterdays performance except FF looking a bit frisky and the new lad being tidy. If we were all being realistic the ground would be empty for the next home game. It's the little glimpses of a possible brighter future that keeps fans turning up.

Let's not do it, let's just see how he performs for a few games before we build him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prowl Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I notice that the last club he was loaned to in August (Ascoli) had an option to buy clause in the deal. I hope we have done the same just in case he comes good. Nice to get a decent price for 'damaged goods' after his sendings off rather than pay a fortune if he looks like a world beater for us. Early days but it would be nice to have an option to buy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsHall Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 He looked a bit of a threat for the short time he was on, which is a relief given what else we were watching. FFS get them all on next week and change it from the bench if it goes to sheeet. UTO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
