If was actually concerning how bad he was at the start of last year. Looked like he couldn’t run, no strength, awful first touch. Exact opposite to now. Just shows that time is needed with players. Absolutely superb last night yet he could’ve had 4.
If he scores 20-25 this season, he'll easily be worth what we sold Vik for.Btw missed the vik comment , neither are as good as vik .. but vik was special
EMC is going to have some tough job trying to get that left side spot from him.
His main competition is Sakamoto, Wright and Simms are nailed on starters. EMC had 2 good opportunities to open his account with us last night and he lacked that killer instinct last night. It’ll come though, he’s still adjusting.EMC is going to have some tough job trying to get that left side spot from him.
£20m I’d say. 2 years left on his contract so we can drive a hard bargain.If he scores 20-25 this season, what’s his value?
Oh he was fucking awful. I mean dog shit awful.You're not the only one to say this, but the idea he was sh*t at the start of last season is a mad take. Just wasn't the case at all.
Correct largely but where I'd differ is the background to it possibly tension arising from the new mixing with the old,MR made it plain they painfully quiet?Oh he was fucking awful. I mean dog shit awful.
He showed great promise coming off the bench against Leicester, but after that he was sooooo bad.
Eventually MR gave up playing him as a centre forward and moved him out to the left wing, and wouldn't you know it, he's been a revelation since.
Shows what a difference it makes utilising a player in his best position, once he was out on the wing his confidence grew, his performances improved, the fans got right behind him, goals started flowing, and it's happy days!
But let's not pretend he wasn't struggling (that's being very kind) before.

That's your truth, but it isn't mine. I liked him from the start, and could see the player in there. Things weren't quite coming together for him or the team as a whole, but he was not 'dog shit awful'. Shouldn't have been necessary to defend him and Ellis on here against the people who didn't have the patience or imagination to see what they were capable of.Oh he was fucking awful. I mean dog shit awful.
There's always reasons.Correct largely but where I'd differ is the background to it possibly tension arising from the new mixing with the old,MR made it plain they painfully quiet?
Let's not pretend he wasn't dog shit awful before turning things round.And some people don't realise that being called dog shit awful, and worse on social media can affect players in the same way as if any employee was treated that way in their job.
You said we were going to ship him back to Turkey in January so please forgive me for not taking your opinion seriously, about most thingsOh he was fucking awful. I mean dog shit awful.

That's your choice, but trust me, his future was in doubt last Christmas,You said we were going to ship him be k to Turkey in January so please forgive me for not taking your opinion seriously, about most things

Trust you? You don’t have any inside info whatsoever. It makes me laugh when people call elite athletes things like dog shit, when let’s face it the only athletic thing you do is answer the front door to the Just Eat driverThat's your choice, but trust me, his future was in doubt last Christmas,
Things could of gone very differently.
You can believe it or not, but the guy was under pressure in his personal life and the club supported him 100%.
That's why he's still here.
Well that just proves you've got nothing to add of value on the subject.Trust you? You don’t have any inside info whatsoever. It makes me laugh when people call elite athletes things like dog shit, when let’s face it the only athletic thing you do is answer the front door to the Just Eat driver
Considering no one else agrees with your opinion, I don’t really care if I’m being childish to be honestWell that just proves you've got nothing to add of value on the subject.
You've chosen some childish attack on someone you've never met based purely on a username rather than add anything meaningful on the topic.
Well done, good for you.
Says it allConsidering no one else agrees with your opinion, I don’t really care if I’m being childish to be honest
Let's not pretend he wasn't dog shit awful before turning things round.
I give him 100% respect for changing things, and becoming a success, but if any one doesn't think he wasn't fucking awful they are either suffering from amnesia or living in denial.
It's amazing how our fall down the league to just above the relegation zone last season has been conveniently forgotten.
Even MR was having his position questioned on here. (go and look at the posts on here if you don't believe me or cant remember) Wright was playing very poorly, Simms had scored something like 2 goals in 25 games, and we couldn't keep a clean sheet.
We turned it round and went on an amazing run, that took us to the brink of the play off places and the cup semifinal, and Haji and Simms were pivitol in that, fair play to them, a fantastic turn around, 100% respect . But let's not try and pretend that the poor run didn't exist.
When players are on poor runs they don't read social media. And when players are loved by the fans, they still jump ship for more money and claim its to further their careers and other BS, regardless of the love and support they've received. That's just life I'm afraid.
Even when Wright and Simms were at their worst, they still got support inside the arena during matches, And that's exactly how it should be.
But let's accept the facts for what they are.
The team struggled for quite a while, and those 2 struggled for a long while.
I know for a fact that that's part of the reason AV has gone, and that's why we have a completely new and more professional back room set up, and why we now employ someone to help new signing settle into the club and local environment. It looks like Doug and MR have learnt a lot from last years experience.
I am glad he had the patience and presence of mind to round the keeper to score instead of rushing the shot. He described his thought process in the City Unseen video about the goal. Very intelligent.The thing for me is when he went through 1v1 I was already celebrating, I knew he’d put it away - I never had that with Gyokeres tbh. I’m not at all saying he’s better, just different in that regard.
Very reminiscent of a young Covkid68 playing as a 9 year old for Binley Juniors back in 1976Loved the hardly noticeable little feint to go right to make the goalie shift his weight slightly. Then powered to the left to score… class!!!
