TheEnchanter Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I read that as Joe, rightly so, trying to drum up some positivity for Moses who's been a bit under fire. We all know he's a bit clumsy and has a mistake in him but he does give his all and therefore I don't mind when a journalist praises him. Obviously we would like better but it could be worse I guess! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prowl Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 He had a great game yesterday. If Pulis can find a way to accentuate his positive attributes and minimise his negative ones then Odubajo will be a star for us. His first season was dreadful but he's much improved this season, I'm hoping Pulis can get the best from him. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
room0035 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 So a wing back playing against a team that for 60 minutes dominated us has only put in 4 tackles was he hiding behind the goal - I would to see his comparison with Palmer the other wing back playing on the left side.

Errol Flashman Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I reckon I saw Palmer make 5 just in the first half hour alone. Ah well, either way. Well done Odubajo, best game I've seen him have for us. Just a bloke. Being dragged along in a world that moves too quick for it's own good.

Adem Poric Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Stats like that are nice but it's when you actually see him playing well that is a good thing. He absolutely deserves his spot if he plays like that every week. A very solid 7 out of 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When playing out of position at centre half. Never been a centre half. Looks decent on the wing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Players like Mike Lyons and Nigel Pearson would laugh in your face for someone being praised for making a total of 4 tackles a game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edwinowl Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I thought Moses was excellent last night. He has pace and that’s why Pulis will play him. I think this lad will get better now under TP. Patterson too looked a player last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plonk Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Well I remember once superb tackle by Palmer when he got back and they got a corner. So that’s one. Regarding moses though, I thought that was his best game for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep putting the effort in Moses its paying off. It helps that he's rarely in the box defending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 appreciate his effort, can’t fault him for that, his end product though is very poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
