Tomo 21,751 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 He's really good going forward, but leaks a ton of goals.Sunderland fans are mixed with him, but at least he is getting significant minutes now. Just as long as 90 of those minutes are against us at The Bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Mikel OBE 4,920 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Started on the bench, came on, and got an assist with the 15 or so minutes he had. We've produced some good league fullbacks this year in him and Bertrand. Obviously he has more ways to go than Bertrand, but he has it in him to be a very impressive player for years to come.

Oscar 441 Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Such a huge liability defensively... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Big Sam puts such a huge emphasis on defensive solidarity i can't imagine him not looking at a left back to replace this guy. If Sunderland had a competent left back they would have got something against Arsenal yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Possibly the only defender in the PL that makes Villa's defence look like the Berlin Wall by comparison. He is utterly shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got to be played as a winger IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may look better going forward as a fullback because he gets a lot more space coming from deep. He might not get enough room as a winger.

He's so bad defensively though there's no chance he'd be in a team I'd pick, but you're prob right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not talented enough offensively to be a winger or defensively to be a fullback. Maybe he'd be good in a team that absolutely dominates possession but there are better choices out their for offensive fullbacks. Just another case of people being blindly optimistic about the clubs youth, I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes world class going forward and the fact he didn't make it here just goes to show how unbelievably bad a defender he is, in that regard he makes Danny Rose look like prime Ash.

I see another side picking him up when Sunderland go down.  The threat he offers going forward will, at least at this stage in his career, always see him as an option in this league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
