Eddie Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 10 hours ago, Mounts Kipper said: It’s probably same reason for Kieran Lee as Maghoma, both were bang average in many games, both had many games where they had little influence and game passed them by, if the likes of Maghoma and Lee don’t have possession of the ball they do not contribute enough to the team effort and it’s like playing with 9 outfield players. FWIW Maghoma is now beginning to improve his off the ball stuff. It’s one thing discussing Maghoma, but fucking hell Mounts, Kieran Lee was amazing off the ball - to the point that Evatt actually called him out in the press for being so good at pressing and hoping the others would learn from him! “His game intelligence of when to press, how to press and how aggressively to press is fantastic. Just the way he glides and drifts into space throughout the game is so intelligent“ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomski Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Maghoma is better than Kieron Lee in a BWFC shirt. I liked Lee so no gripe, more that an acknowledgement Maghoma is good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked Lee so no gripe, more that an acknowledgement Maghoma is good I think we saw Lee in his fading years; didn't have the legs of a young Maghoma, but his ability to press and find space was a lesson to any young midfielder.

I think the sticking point might be having to speak 😀 Joking aside, you could be a combo of Messi and Bergsson, but if you aren't a naturual teacher/coach, you can't tell others how to do it. And looking at Kieron Lee's game, you could tell it was instinct/natural feel for reading the game, its not like the equivalent of Beckham teaching someone how to cross or take a free kick, or Kane on taking pens. Anyway it was a privilege to watch his last few years, good luck to him whatever he does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted March 15 Site Supporter Share Posted March 15 Agree- he wasn't a big talker and seemed quite a private person. Led by action. Wiki says he is at Oldham at the moment, but what he will do later, who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
