Kyogo Furuhashi

Just not hitting the heights of last season

 

Bookmarked so we can laugh at you come the end of the season

 

He was unlucky with the header after Hatate hitting the post, but think he could have done better when he tried to take it round the keeper. He's still doing no bad for someone not at the top of his game though.

 

Dropped into midfield today more than usual. Wasn't getting much service today. He's best when he doesn't have to do that but could see why he was getting frustrated today and doing it as service wasn't there.

 

I do think he's got another level to go up, but you can't complain about his goal contribution currently.

 

Could of had a hat-trick easily again today, he’s not on form yet has scored 7 in 8 league games, that’s not bad at all. Still a quality player and can make the difference.

 

Larsson was the same would have a quiet game but still score a goal.

 

Got the goal following it in but that was more like it overall..

Was involved in loads of our good stuff. Had the header he should've scored, should've rounded the keeper and think there was another one....but involved in much more..

Still more to come..

 

Defo not at the levels of last season but he will be soon just need more games wasn’t long back before the season ended. Can’t complain to much though he has scored 7 league goals already.

 

Not convinced that Kyogo is a naturally prolific goalscorer and would love to see him played a little wider with Giakoumakos played up top. With Jota the other side that would give us real creativity.

 

He's at my house just now, just made him poached eggs and toast and put some Peppa Pig pyjamas on him with a hot water bottle now he's going to bed for an early night.

 

He’s been wasted out wide whenever we’ve tried it.

He’s the most natural goal scorer I’ve seen at the club since Larsson. He’s taking a while to get proper going this season but when he first arrived last year everything he touched went in it seemed.

 

He's not exactly been clinical but he has 7 goals in 10 games this season. 7 in 8 in the league.

Still banging them in.

 

That patter.........

 

He told me he doesn't like you.

 

And one of the league games he only played 3 minutes in before going of hurt. He has regularly opened the scoring In most of our other games. He should have had a couple more at the weekend but was noticeably like the Dundee Utd game more involved in play at the weekend. Maeda also pretty much tackled him when he was about to shoot at one point.

 

His performance at the weekend left me thinking it's been a while since we had a striker that was a prolific finisher. He's a class player with his movement and Eddy before him did a lot as a false-9 but it's been a while since we've started a forward that you just knew was a sure thing in a one-on-one.
