LondonLax Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 9 hours ago, Keyblade said: Crazy that he was just plodding along at Boro for a couple of years. Elite talent ID by Unai and co. He was only at Boro for six months. We should have just bought him directly from City and saved loads of money really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody1000 Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 He had a couple of iffy touches in the first 10-15 minutes, and then he just morphed into this unstoppable beast. I genuinely don’t remember an Arsenal player actually tackling him, they literally couldn’t get the ball from him. As he improves the killer bits of his game, he is going to become an absolute monster. The football world was introduced to Morgan Rogers yesterday evening, that was a Star-making performance!

Follyfoot Posted August 25 VT Supporter Share Posted August 25 Fantastic potential but needs to work on his end product which will come I’m sure seems unsure whether to stick or twist sometimes but that’s being a bit harsh maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember an arsenal player successfully managing to foul him let alone tackle him Saved them about 5 yellow cards by ploughing on rather than going down 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colhint Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 Well with Jude injured he might get a call up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyVillans Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 He is so fun to watch. A lot of elite players enjoy falling over after they get tackled. People just bounce off rogers and he keeps going and going. Hopefully he bags a few goals in the next few games to reward his start to the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicho Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 We saw it last season but that was a performance that has made people stand up and take notice. There will be tactics made to stop this happening which will in turn free up our wingers. He got a few goals last season but that is the next big step for him should he aiming for 10+. On the assists you can’t score them but he could/should have had 2 already, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delphinho123 Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 Starting to usher this guys name in the same breath as Grealish now. I said it after a few performances last season that if this guy ever got confidence and believed his own ability, he’d be frighteningly good. He’s in that space now. Im repeating what others have already said but he’s just phenomenal. Pace, power, strength, dribbling and probably the most surprising thing of all is his passing ability. His end product is there. He isn’t too greedy, always looks for team mates and his weight of pass is very, very good for such a big lad. The beauty of yesterday’s performance is the rest of the league will have taken note. Expect him to be doubled up on in plenty of matches this season which only opens up space for Bailey, Ramsey, Philogene etc. Will be starting for England in 3-6 months time and honestly, he may well the country’s best player. I can’t remember seeing such talent in such a big frame. What a player. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6065_Villa Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 Looks like his game has moved up another level this season, still needs to work on his play without the ball. Sometimes his run is so direct and fast he doesn't have another player near him when he gets to the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preseason is one thing but to take the piss out of Arsenals midfield as well as their centre backs is something else. And to think Unai spotted it?

villarule123 Posted August 25 VT Supporter Share Posted August 25 Even Boro fans that watched him didn't see this potential in him. They didn't even think he'd be good enough for the PL. An incredible spot by Emery. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
