    Definitely. think it’s quite a surprise he’s managed so well even with that. Goals and assists for us are crazy really. Either that or he’d have been away to spurs when they came in haha!

    Played well bar that wildly hit cross where he failed to look up.

    Thought he was one of the few positives. Direct and a threat. Better cover defensively than the likes of Abada as well

    Definitely slower. Tried to retrieve a ball on the byline and couldn't..

    He's definitely more comfortable on the ball than Abada. Gets his head up and actually tries to pick a man out..

    It's ridiculous that he is benched and Maeda plays

    Mind blowing

    Good to see him being much more positive. Whether it's been due to injuries or lack of confidence it's been a while since he's took his man on and delivered balls into the box.
    Going on his last 2 appearances he's still got something to offer

    Thought he was decent tonight but it was evident he just doesn’t have that burst of pace he once did.

    If anybody thinks he was anything but shocking tonight you know nothing about football. Cost us both goals with his pathetic covering. Watch him for both goals. Infuriating is understatement

    Still think he’s offering next to nothing when he comes on, offensively and defensively.

    Reminded me of the Forrest of old when he was on the ball, went by defenders and whipped in some good balls.

    Would like to see him get maybe 3 games in a row. See how he gets on.

    He's lost the tracking back part of his play, but wasn't the worst tonight.

    Might get that wish if we keep picking up injuries.

    He was OK, but has lost a huge amount of pace and looks afraid to take on his man. Was one of the better players tonight, but I think the contract extension (and the length of it) was absurd.

    He did well tonight considering he got unexpectedly woken up from his nap on the bench. His experience should give him an edge over Maeda and Abada imo, they are both out of their depth on this stage atm.
