Sparkz 76 Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Defensively we’re sound and now Kent is in I think our midfield is very good maybe a striker in as Diedhou and Djuric is going to be way off pace and Taylor just isn’t doing it at the moment just my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you have said the above last season? It’s all relative. I agree with your OP or the sentiments of it at least. But the squad does not evolve in a linear fashion, and sometimes you need a player in short term to aide that evolution. I think Bobby learned how to poach from Tammy, and how to control and roll your man Close-up in one move from Tomlin. I think the players of last season knew they had a special talent in TA, and wanted to improve their games to help him too. So I think we benefitted in some form from TA.

CiderHider Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Quality signing, Scousers think V high of him and we will look after him as we did the Tamster, are we getting a reputation of being a good club where top class talent can develop?

AnumRed Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Actually embarrassing listening to our fans text/phone in to radio Bristol and now on here. The lads joined on loan for the remainder of the season and in his first interview he said the fans were great. The same fans who are now saying he has an ego and he’s useless based on a twenty minute cameo. Didn’t we give Johnson a chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBW Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Looked out of depth. Waits for the ball to be played to his feet before moving. Can't control the ball when he's stood still anyway as is evident from him allowing the ball to roll by him a couple of times. Worried if his contract does have a must play however many games clause.

petehinton Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Didn’t track back for the goal Let the ball go under his foot for a throw in when we were in the attacking third Ran the ball out of play when in the attacking third Not a great start.

BITW Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Awful debut. As mentioned was partly at fault for the goal and looked reluctant to run into the space behind the full back. Very impressed with Walsh today thought he was class. Bad day at the office all round hopefully go into a very tough Derby game with some fresh legs.

Exactly this, may turn out to be a great loan sign but found he came across arrogant in his interview yesterday and was more interested in getting games than being here to help the team.

Loco Rojo Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Yeah not a great start but looked rusty and even if not will need time to gel. Only 20 minutes though so certainly can't judge him based on that. Needs more time before we can properly assess what we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otib118 Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 The guy probably only met his new team mates yesterday, hardly played this season, made his debut in a 20 min spell and people already having a go at the kid, that's a new personal best even by our standards! Give the kid a chance, he's a good player just let him bed in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardy Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Really poor debut - looks like the new Tomlin to me with the wrong DNA. No excuse for not putting enough effort / running in to a 20 mins cameo. Atleast partly cost us the goal aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dearster Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Ryan Kent didn't look match fit today in the game. Completely changed the momentum when he come on the pitch and personally think he was majorly responsible for their goal. We have to remember however that he's obviously a very talented player for Johnson to want him at the club, he's only been in the squad for a day and has had winter break in Germany. He looked lost today but with a couple of weeks of fitting into the squad dynamic he should come along fine and hopefully will be a decent player in the important final parts of the season.

Sticks Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 He cost us the goal made no effort what's so ever to track back, actually stood on half way line until he realised he better make a jog back and just strutted around with attitude. Didn't want to run in behind and when he did ball goes out for goal kick when Joe Bryan was the simple ball to get cross in. Hope I'm proved wrong but really think Johnson has got his work cut out. Lazy 20 minute cameo and doesn't look like current BCFC DNA. Wouldn't normally judge a player this quick but he really annoyed me today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cider red Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Looked awful; okay only had 30 mins but there was no willingness to run. Only get one chance to make a first impression; looks like he will be playing for himself rather than the team; head down; take on 2 players than pass kind of player. Akin to Leo. Rather have elliason who puts a shift in. Walsh on the other hand; quality little player and will fit in well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw enough today to believe after a few training sessions with the squad that he will rip a few defences a new one He did look a bit lost at times and not surprised tbh with how little game time he’s had Walsh on the other hand grew into the game and worked well with JB on the left, some nice touches and looks a good buy for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glynriley Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 I thought our new boys had a negative effect on the team today .Not because they are bad players necessarily but because the aren't up to speed with their team mates. We have a fantastic group who are all in tune with the managers tactics and are prepared to run through brick walls for each other. The new lads have got buy into that, pronto.

BobBobSuperBob Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Thought Kent had a very mixed 20. Mins Sloppy at times but at least had a couple of direct runs which nearly created an opening Until that point we’d been playing endless triangles in the middle of the pitch going absolutely nowhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZiderEyed Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 What a woeful performance that was from the lad. Felt embarrassed for him, seemed like everything he tried went against him. Early doors though, might be the first proper run out hes had in months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibor Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Surprised at the number of people in this thread judging a player on barely half an hour. He clearly has ability, just needs a bit of sharpness and to find the team's rhythm. No need for the over reactions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
