he does it constantly, its what fucks me off the most about him. fucking coward. no fight whatsoever and hes fucking shit anyway.There was a loose ball today which he was definitely able to win, not even a 50/50, but he stopped and let AWB gain possession. It was fear.
He doesn't look like he wants it enough. Our other player are giving everything out there. Does he think he is better than the rest because he cost 50m??
If by "doing a Bale" you mean, taking up golf, then I think he might have no choice if he carries on the way he is.In Ange I trust but this one may be an anomaly.
Poor today. Only flashes in his whole time.
Maybe he’s gunna do a Bale?
Spot on.....seems abit of of a softy.... maybe it's the new generation of youth and how they've brought up to play football......I'm 51 and these youngsters wouldn't survive the type of football we played in the 80'sHe doesn't look like he wants it enough.

Piss poor. Have been sayimg it for weeks, he's too lightweight, hesitant and today his delivery was atrocious.
Not a fan thus far at all
Needed to step upPony again. Needs a spell out of the team and to be used as impact sub for a while.
Now with Madders back we'll see Kulu out on the right, also potentially Solomon and Werner ahead of him when Son gets back.
He's had plenty of game time to cement his place but hasn't done it.
Jury very much still out on him.
Question is what will he do with said through balls? On todays evidence very little. Crossing was absolutely woefulThink he will.flourish once we get are more creative players back that can utilise his pace with incisive through balls.
hell bottle going for them incase he gets contact from the defender the fucking wimpQuestion is what will he do with said through balls?
Ffs what diff dies that make. He had pre season with forest played some games for them already. Why do people go on about pre season so much? Did Mickey have pre season with us? What about players coming in jan. What sort of exscuse is that anyway. He doesn’t need a pre season with us to be able ficking cross the ball, not be such weed, shoot or try to beat a man. Even make runs in behind he doesn’t do that often. He needs to be stretching teams. Only thing his stretching is his bank balance.Lack of spurs pre season, think he will improve greatly
Confidence and bravery can look very similar.You can't preseason bravery....its not melting to be concerned.
He already has ample opportunity to run in behind lines or drift inside. But he has to show for the ball. There’s no cutting inside and trying to split the CBs.Think he will.flourish once we get are more creative players back that can utilise his pace with incisive through balls.
Indeed at least moura would try to beat a few players, he had guts as well always tracking back tackling , never afraid to get stuck in and was great in the air. Can you imagine BJ jumping for a cross?No there isn’t. He has little to no quality.
Not even as good as Lucas Moura if I’m being honest
£50M for the future? We are not made of money. Other players have come in costing less and not been as wank.To me, he still seems like one for the future and I’ve not given up on him yet.
He looks like he has some maturing to do, physically , and with a fully fit team we would only see him against certain teams or as a sub. Unfortunately we don’t have that luxury, and I don’t think he’s ready. Our big players give him confidence and without them he does see to shrink.
It worries me that the fanbase will be so on his back it will only make things worse. Needs more time and space to grow.
Well said!I hope he improves exponentially, but I really do fear we’ve had our pants pulled down on this one.
He offers very little. People keep on mentioning his talent, but it escapes me. His wing play is very basic and his crosses are almost uniformly poor. He shows a reluctance to move inside and affect games.
But it’s his work off the ball that is really unacceptable. He just has to work harder. He has to come to the ball and link up play.
He hides out wide and does nothing.
Well, as for the fan base on his back, it's always someone.To me, he still seems like one for the future and I’ve not given up on him yet.
