Young kid always wants the ball and brave with it when he's got it. I think he'll get better as well. Aye Best BWFC player for me last night n all Can't be doing much for his confidence usually only playing when we’re to bare bones and getting ragged tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturday he was the only genuine midfielder. Last night joined by a recovering MJ but still only 2 midfielders. A few off here that have seen his performances reckon he's been the best one out there. He's not a world beater and it leaves me scratching my head as to what some folk expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rudy Posted January 5, 2022 Members Share Posted January 5, 2022 Never goes missing Thomason always wants the ball, does the simple stuff but needs to get his head up and believe in his ability. There was a game when every time he got the ball his head was up and he looked forward and made some excellent passes. Strikes me as an arm around the shoulder kind of confidence player. I agree with Horwich to a degree where he’s not going to set the world alight and a fully fit squad he’s only on the bench but the role He’s asked to do I think he’s more than adequate, be interesting to see if the can really push on.

Traf Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 I though young George played well last night. Grafted all night, put a foot in where possible. It was clear that MJ was rusty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My take on him has been the same for a while. A good lad that will improve. Not currently at the level our fans demand the club should be at. His work rate, showing for the ball etc is not in doubt. I dont think that Evatt rates him and he will be back to a place on the bench as soon as he can get players in. I am with Evatt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 He'd probably do a better job than John at left back right now, he's gone right off the boil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarcevic was as disappointing as Doyle has been this season. Sarcevic, like the rest of our midfield was often overwhelmed by the numbers in opposition. However, when he played, he often dictated the tempo of the team and we moved the ball quicker around the middle. He offered a goal threat too. He was a big loss imo.

Moderators Horwich Posted January 5, 2022 Moderators Share Posted January 5, 2022 Sheehan has also been a loss. Sarc needs replacing and I am sure he will be. I am sure Evatt will know all of this and will be doing everything he can to improve the squad (Like he did last Jan) I would keep Doyle (Unless he mega wants to go) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not let them compete with each other for the starting position? Or even use games like last night to see how two strikers play together. If it isn’t working, change things at HT. The problem we have is, like last night, the system wasn’t working enough to score goals but, as is often his way, rather than change the system, IE seems to prefer changing the component parts of the system; a centre forward on for a centre forward, a left back for a left back, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditto about keeping Doyle - at least till the end of the season. He could be used as a sub, or tried in a partnership with Dion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Evatt pass pass square and back has bored him into a comatose state. Not sure he's fast enough for a "proper wing back". I wouldn't mind seeing him playing as a left midfielder though, and as you say, whipping in some of those passes. I'm still convinced Dapo can play in the hole- some passes he's put through recently show he's getting his head up now, and he'd have more freedom. He always comes inside from the left which reduces his options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venetian White Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Another one we seemingly let go for nothing. We could probably make a full 18 man squad out of players now playing higher than us that we let go / sold for money much less than their worth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
