Mikey Johnston

Just above average for me and still not wanting to take on the man on the outside , thought scales 1 delivery today posed more threat than anything mj did today ,wrong decisions made at times, think he needs to stop thinking too much and just play

 

Much better than midweek.

 

I actually forgot about Montgomery. I would start Mikey for the first half and then bring Montgomery on for the second half

 

Yeah I do be thinking of him mainly as lb now but he’s originally lw and is a decent option there. We will definitely see players rested and others given game time thursday so can only be a good thing for this type of match

 

Thought he was good today. Think it is very much a coaching thing that our wingers tend to come inside a lot. Jota is the one guy who will go by a man more often though. MJ tried to retain possession a lot more today. Again a coaching thing I reckon.

 

He's always better starting a game when he has more time and doesn't try to rush things. There's clearly a player there. You can tell by the way defenders panic when he goes at them.

I think a run of games would do him well but he's been unfortunate with injuries and we have Jota as a better option now.

What he needs to do is work on his impact-sub game. Learn to play 20 minute games - when you're winning and when you're chasing a game.

 

So did Abada when he came on.

 

Decent game today and with Jota out for a few weeks now good to see him getting the game time. I would start him again on Thursday. Think he just needs game time to get into a good rhythm.

 

Like a deer in the headlights.

 

Decision making is poor. I think a loan to another team in the league for a season would do him great

 

Loan him out in January or sell…

 

That at the end summed him up now. Utterly ridiculous..

Shame as well because he got a nice assist and scored with a decent finish, don't think it was him that was offside for it.....but the whole crowd moaning, groaning and likely walking away remember that at the death..

 

Rotten.

I can forgive how pish he is in the final third, but the way he sells himself for their equaliser is absolutely embarrassing for a professional footballer.

Sums up his overall lack of awareness and game intelligence.

 

Nah, I just don't get it. Never have.

 

A year ago he doesn’t even think about passing that.

Mental decision. Decision making is all over the place just now.

 

Okay he * up at the end but he got an assist and a goal chalked off. Not going to be harsh on him

 

And done well for the penalty

 

Was just about to say pretty much the same, I'm a huge fan of Mikey, but it'd becoming more and more apparent his football brain is lacking. Too many times he has many good options yet 99% of great time picks the wrong one.

His trickery and cross for Hendersons goal was fantastic, his finish for the offside goal was great. Then the easiest one of them all a 3 on 0 he fluffs in the most ridiculous way. With a heavy heart I sadly don't think he'll make it here.
