According to my Hull-supporting Season Ticket holder friends, he was very good for them when he played there. Fair enough, I'll go with that if it's their informed view, maybe he'll be more comfortable defensively on that side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only played 20 times for Hull and he impressed that much he was not included in the squad pick this season. His performances here are clearly not of the required standard.

Aldo Raine Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 8 hours ago, Lostock Whites said: Gonna be interesting to see if Evatt alters the formation next season. 5 at the back seems to get exposed a lot in this league now, his role model pep doesn't play with wing backs they double down the wing with wingers and inverted full backs. Now I know I'm comparing us to City here, but my point is the best possession side in the world doesn't play with wing backs, in fact barely any of the top teams do. Evatts never going to change his style and I don't want him to, but if we want to move up a level and progress, a change in the shape might be needed Maybe, but I think we had the joint best defensive record in the league so I don't see him moving away from that foundation I think it's more likely he looks for a top quality No. 10 who can help us play through teams when they sit in against us That's been one of our biggest problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We create nowhere near enough. As I’ve said before we’re so process driven, there’s always another pass. Then it just breaks down. The Alfie May’s at this level are hard to come by. Someone who is willing to beat a man, get a shot off and sometimes stick 2 fingers up to the process. Dapo did it initially which is why he got a decent goals return. But I would hope if AM is available we’re in the running Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just dont turn the ball over quick enough in midfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only started 8 games this season, so maintained his 1 in 3 arguably. If cups included its more like 1 in 2 this season, he finished 2nd top scorer 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantra Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 If Dion can score 20 goals in a possession team which isn’t really playing to his “run in behind” strengths, imagine how many he could get playing for a fast build up, counter attacking side… Having said that, he could’ve had 30 goals for us, some of the chances he’s missed this season were sitters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
