Ok, so only on the pitch for a relatively short cameo towards the end, but I thought he was impressively up to speed and gave a good account of himself. I know all the comments that are coming about how much we can expect from this sicknote for the next 30 minutes before his next injury, but I am genuinely hoping that he stays fit and can thrive. He can be a good player, and is probably a better defender than Ryan Andrews. I like Andrews btw. But we all know his defensive shortcomings.
He genuinely did play well for the time he was on. He's still not a starter but neither is Kayembe or Bayo. Credit to him, along side Baah and Vata they actually looked like they wanted to win the game along with Louza. Our attack is so poor - it's crazy how we've scored so many goals from midfield.
Had more bandages on today than this guy: He also looked completely gassed at one point and was unable to make a recovery run to get back in position when an attacking move broke down. I agree he looked more solid than Andrews defensively though.
A good dig? Please remind us of his top goals. He played well yesterday, but shooting if never the right option for him.
Not patronising him, but there have been a few times at the Vic where I’ve seen him shape to shoot and wince, only for it to whistle just wide, one day he will score from range and we’ll look like plums!
Has always had a bit of the Total Recall Mars mutant about him but I think he has done well since his return.
