No Moore would be fine because he's been at the club for years, it's 3 years at the club before the age of 21, so generally academy players wilp always be HG Club Trained.
Just don’t think he takes up good positions. He doesn’t get on the ball enough. He’s good when chasing back but as a focal point in the box not so good. Also can he create something out of nothing for himself or bang one in from edge of the box. To me it’s like Johnson good at tap ins in and around 6 yard box but not much else.
He was woeful. At 5 up you’d think he’d try to do something when he got the ball but offered very little. Moved to tight midway not much better. A number of times he had the ball and could have tried to beat his man but never tried. Only once did he do it and put a ball in the box. If he can’t be bothered to take a little risk and go for it at 5 up then when can he. Perfect opportunity to shows us he could be decent winger.
This is the problem with having these two wingers. In the old days you’d look forward to seeing some skillful players come on at 5-0 to bring some excitement to the game. These do not give you that same feeling. I remember when we had Paul Walsh wasn’t always a starter but when he came you expected him to try something. These try f all, may be Werner has a little straight run. But none of these could turn and get away from a player like say Spence did for first goal. Or nut Meg a player , anything. Until I see Johnson do something with the ball he will always be down as a useless alround footballer. Werner will be off so doesn’t matter.
Glad I’m not the only thinking the same. Such a waste of money.
Well apart from being dropped for two unfit players when he didn’t deserve to be…
Go out and steam roller then like klopp pool team would!
I’d have him ahead of Werner and Johnson on the wing!
Ffs managers like Fergie would sort him out if he did it regularly. How often was he late! Sometimes in football they go OTT with things like that and make a mountain out of a molehill. Is late once and all of a sudden the narrative is his got a bad attitude, lazy, blah blah blah. When in reality it could just be the once. The manager needs to have a strong word with player and make it clear it won’t do if you want to be part of the plans.
Play him instead of Johnson and put Spence behind. Or just play 3 atb.
) but it doesn't represent a difference from the pattern of this whole era.what you want Ange to change the way he plays
Conserving energy was the sensible thing to do.
He is actually very skillful. There was a little run in the first half where does a little flick with his left to go round the player. Think he won a throw from it.
