Popular Post jonesy87shef Posted October 6, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted October 6, 2021 He should definitely be starting league games imo. Looks a really threat. Lost count of how many times he beat his man and put the ball into a decent area and either nobody was attacking the front post (finally happened for the goal) or was there to meet it 7 yards out in the middle.  A couple of things didn’t work out and he poorly over hit a cross first half, but he was a constant thorn in Mansfield’s side. Had a decent strike saved first half which the rebound could have led to a goal. Second half did the really difficult bit and should have scored.  I’d rather have a player a fluff his lines half the time as long as he’s getting into those positions consistently. Seen him consistently create far more in the two pizza cup matches than our other wingers have during league games. He also carries the ball much further up the pitch.  He’s still a bit rusty and sometimes needs to learn to release the ball earlier, but that will come in time.  Lets play our direct forwards the next few games and let the opposition worry about us for a change. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando_Trustful Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Consider we don't attack enough and only average about two chances created a game it is ridiculous he isn't getting more of a look in. I would go with him and Shodipo out wide. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyowl Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 The reason why he doesnt start games is because Moore is too negative. Â He won't start with 2 wingers. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tewkesbury Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 He's OK, but he offers nothing defensively. Hunt then Johnson were targeted all game, didn't see Corbineau track back more than 10 yards. Literally sits on the touchline waiting for the ball, doesn't move much off the ball to create space for himself or others. He's great on the ball but usually gets it in traffic and gets crowded out. On a brighter note, looked to release earlier than the last game he played. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bladeshater Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I rate the lad far from the finished item but definitely worth a slot in the team looks a level above any other wide man we have 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can't accept that as he's not good enough to justify only attacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Moore’s preferred 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 the wide men shouldn’t really need to be counted on to defend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what are we achieving with these so called better defensive players?  boring, predictable gutless performances week after week, that’s what we are getting.  the balance is wrong we should be starting each game to take the lead and get a cushion, then make your defensive changes, we do it the wrong way round. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Deserves to start at the weekend. Gives us something different, a bit of excitement at least. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Positionally naive, offers very little defensive cover, but the only player that came close to getting me off my seat when he got the ball.  If he plays, and I hope he gets more games, have to understand he isn't going to be in games much unless we are attacking (which we don't do very often).  I like attacking football, so would be in my team. I'd rather win games by outscoring the opposites than boring them into submission.   5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The better defensive players are Brown and Paterson. In a 1 for 1 situation, which would you drop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A E Neuman NYowl Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Like others have said doesn't offer much help defensively but get the ball to him early where he can isolate defenders 1 on 1 and he will cause problems. Â Play Palmer behind him as he is a solid full back but lacks the ability energy and crossing ability to play wing back. Â 442 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash77 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Bar pato our strikers aren't looking like scoring many, with his pace he could do some real damage with pato up front imo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
