Thug Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Great penalty, little else unfortunately. He’s fine as a squad player, and his £30m replacement is injured. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete101 Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Better in second half than first , he is gonna play a big roll in team with all the injuries , wasn't brilliant today but when it counted he put the ball in back of net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciggiesnbeer Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 I loved the way he just ignored the Newcastle keeper in his face playing "mind games" yeah that doesnt work with Anwar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All scored and don't think the keeper has even dived the right way on any of them. Number one penalty taker even with Ings on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdman Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Fairly anonymous first half but much better second half and more involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how he does it, I always think there's a big element of luck with the keeper going the wrong way he manages it every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delphinho123 Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Dreadful. Would love him gone if a decent offer comes in for him. Penalties aside, he’s terrible at nearly everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were you saying that about him last December when he was nominated for player of the month and was our standout player? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Hope that penalty gives him confidence. He looked petrified today in front of the Villa fans. Scared to take on the full back. Everything was bouncing off of him. We're going to need him this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, if we’re ‘going to need him this season’, then our recruitment has gone badly, badly wrong. Like, seriously wrong. When Bailey and Watkins are back, he should be fighting to make the bench.

We're going to need him because as we're seeing right now, both of them could get injured...as could Traore, which also is a current reality. He is decidedly backup, but it's in a position where as we saw last season and already this, where he'll be called into action a few times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birdman Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 He's 100% a confidence player. Probably always worried about fans getting on his back which is a shame. Needs to be braver, just go for it and run at people. Just try things. He can do it but needs to break through that psychological brick wall he puts up! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
