sh1t_ref_again Posted October 24, 2019 Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 As much as I would love Semenyo to come in and be the striker solution we need, nothing I have seen last night or in previous games makes me think he is anywhere near this level yet and would not waste a place on the bench for him. He looked lost, Weinmann was constantly having to point and tell him what to do, by which time it was too late. For a young lad, it was embarrassing his lack of effort, as he ambled over in his lazy looking running style, whilst Weinmann who is 10 years his senior ran rings around him and put in a shift. I was surprised LJ started him last night and even more surprised he did not take him off half time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gert Mare Posted October 24, 2019 Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 I thought that ‘El Serpiente’ looked strong. We’ll create more chances with players who can hold the ball up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colombo Robin Posted October 24, 2019 Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 Very promising debut but most Wednesday fans will remember him as the player who had the best debut they have ever seen, then did absolutely nothing for 12 games until they let him go. Hoping history doesnt repeat itself, because if he can keep yesterdays standards up we have found an extremely useful addition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Movement was pretty abject. Not how I saw it, offered little to nothing. No attempt to get up with play on breaks. Constantly overpowered and giving fouls away. Effectively the exact opposite of what Rhodri offered when he came on. I maintain that if we had a better "home grown" player in the squad, Semenyo would be shipped out on loan again.

He is certainly not lightweight now going by last night. Really think he may suit Weimann. He looks like he can hold it up, but also has good movement. Technically very good too.

(Probably back to League 2) Thought Semenyo was beginning to play very well just before he was subbed. Massive improvement second half. Hope he continues to play more like that. At 19 it's scary to think how good he might be in a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was chasing things the best he could. Not everyone is Andi Weimann. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazooka Joe Posted October 24, 2019 Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 For whatever reason Semenyo doesn't seem ready or, unfortunately, the answer to what we need. When Rodri came on you could feel the lift and see the difference he made to our game. He hasn't scored yet, but hopefully it won't long before he does. Unleash El Sidre.. and he will score !

winsaw Posted October 24, 2019 Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 I really like what u have seen so far , he's like an upgraded Matt Taylor, he's only going to get better as he gets fitter and sure he will get some goals as he's often in the right place, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted October 24, 2019 Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 14 hours ago, Sir Geoff said: Thought Rodri looked a great prospect. I loved the way a few minutes after coming on he had a tussle with a defender and literally threw him to the ground. He is strong, has good movement, holds the ball up well, good link up play. My thoughts leaving the ground were a couple more games like that and he will save us a few 'bob' in January. Sign him til the end of the season before someone else comes sniffing around him. Semenyo. I was surprised that the substitution happened so soon, as he looked a different player in the first 9 minutes of the half. Just watched all his interactions on Wyscout. Overall it wasn’t up to the mark, but nor were most of the team 1st half. In those 9 second half minutes he did more than the previous 45. I definitely think he has something, there are little things he does that are v.good...just not doing them often enough. It’s no disgrace to not be quite ready at the mo’, at 19. I would rather he stayed around the squad, he’s club developed too. Get minutes, games here and there, that’s fine. 5 hours ago, JonDolman said: He was lightweight back then. Only about 23 I think.

I mentioned elsewhere - he might be Palmer’s spark. Palmer needs someone he can play a ball into and be confident he can make a run and get it back. Palmer has been quiet for the last few appearances, but last night, once he realised he coukd pop a ball off and get it back, he stopped trying to beat his man over and over. It was do enough to get the edge over his man, pop it off, and go and get it, but 10 yards further on. Watch the goal. 1. Little pass from Palmer to O’Dowda 2. O’Dowda turns it round the corner, back to Palmer 3. Palmer pass into Rodri, who holds off his man under real pressure 4. Rodri pops it off to Palmer 5. Palmer great vision to spot Briwnhill 6. Brownhill That is how we see the best of Palmer. More please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hertsexile Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 Rodri has a point to prove only on short term contract really wants to play football so I believe this lad will give 100% and hopefully prove he was worth the punt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
