OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 10/10 for effort tonight, didn't get much service. His runs off the ball were class though. Barbara, Bosnian Blue, BOSS and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Flash 1,144 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 I don't think Andre wasn't great upfront much better when he moved wide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 I didn't think he played badly. Great work-rate, but his movement is not that of a lone striker. I still much prefer him on the wing and thought he did better when he was moved there after Torres came on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meetdoscar 335 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Well he plays far more confidently than torres I think he is a really good buy The_Flash 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Was unlucky with that chance he hit the bar with, obviously he was offside but it was a good hit and if he had gone a fraction later he would have timed his run perfectly. Some pros and cons with him upfront. Obviously hes very fast and good on the counter, not as strong and can't hold the ball up that well.

Blue Armour 4,442 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 I didn't think he played badly. Great work-rate, but his movement is not that of a lone striker. I still much prefer him on the wing and thought he did better when he was moved there after Torres came on. Pretty much what I felt as well. And that he was coming up against centre-backs like Ferdinand and Vidic. A conventional CF would have done better under those circumstances. Still, playing him upfront is always a decent option for the manager...especially with Willian coming in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambo 1,729 Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Not fast enough for striker position imo, needs to work on his dribbling and touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeboii 1,844 Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Not fast enough for striker position imo, needs to work on his dribbling and touch. He is pretty fast. I was always thinking "Man, when will he use his speed?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDY 1,290 Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I thought he held the ball well when he got it, but didn't get into positions to receive the ball enough. Whereas Torres was getting in some great positions, but losing it every time Barbara 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! The only place to be 11,313 Posted August 27, 2013 Popular Post! Share Posted August 27, 2013 Fantastic performance in my opinion and put in a great shift. Harried the defenders and forced a couple of mistakes, whilst making some decent runs that would be picked up by our midfielders better a few months into the season.

Kojo 4,676 Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 It depends which way you look at it, his work rate was excellent, even on corners he wouldn't let his man go he was always tracking.The service will be better to him in other games also, we where just generally sloppy for me, even though Mourinho played for a draw he certainly didn't expect us to be so sloppy up top like we where.Only thing I haven't been so impressed with is his first touch, but besides that he's looking good. He's going to need games to get in it first, Schurrle is a player with discipline and a lot of confidence with his long range shooting and trying stuff from anywhere, he hasn't done any of that since joining because he's smart enough to know if he fucks up he loses his place. And with our 10000000000 cams he can certainly be benched. BOSS, Rambo, The only place to be and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
