Bar BS3 Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Looks a good squad signing who’s obviously getting more game time than was expected. Clearly lacks pace, but does look a decent all round footballer. Doing a good job so far. Well done Tommy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
where's the joy Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 pound for pound the best summer signing of them all. Dasilva won't walk straight back in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 It would be all too easy for him to play the LWB / LB role cautiously, yet we’ve seen him: - bomb past his marker for the goal v Brum - in the middle of a melee at home to QPR - brought down for penalty in the 6 yard box v Hull, as well as being a constant advanced outlet for Taylor Moore passes too Of course he’s gonna struggle when faced up to a tricky winger, but I would say the past 3 games, since QPR at home, we’ve worked better as a team to not get him isolated. Bowen didn’t really cause him that uncomfortable an afternoon on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unan Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 4 minutes ago, where's the joy said: pound for pound the best summer signing of them all. Dasilva won't walk straight back in Disagree, but very fortunate signing none the less. I’m actually surprised how strong he is, going forward, 1 on 1. Several times he’s taken his man on near the oppositions box and got around them, against QPR & Derby he tricked his way past a defender & got in to dangerous positions in the box. @Davefevs beat me to it by seconds, with much more detail.

Simon79 Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 I said at the time, this signing reminds me of the Alex Russell signing. He is a good player/pro who is comfortable on the ball & can cover a few positions. He also knows how to look after himself & when to commit a foul. Only slight worry is yellow cards. Has he got 3 now? Could do without a ban for him anytime soon. COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedEyez Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 I think that in the scenario where Jay wasn’t injured and Nagy was, Rowe would be playing CM with Brownhill where I think he’d be even more impressive in his natural position. I think LJ would have shielded Massengo more had the above happened. We have great options! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dasilva bound to get back in imo. Not even close the levels between the 2. Thought Rowe had his best game I've seen. But will be interesting to see 1st goal back. Was he a bit slow? Interesting that once O'Dowda moved the left back, Boro concentrated on our right side. O'Dowda looked comfortable I thought at left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kezman Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 I love the way he loves a tackle. Comes sliding in a mile away nicking possession and always up for a battle. Has plenty of heart and a gutsy performer. Almost put in the perfect ball for Weimann in that lovely move down the left hand side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD a far superior left back. I think Rowe has improved a lot in LB as he has learned his role but really lacks pace. Unfortunately it means he stands off his man for fear of getting beaten and results in us conceding a lot of crosses in from his side. All first half they were targeting his side as it was so easy to get a cross in and it was no surprise when the ball came in from there for the first goal. Fair play to him for standing in manfully but it’s a real shame we’re missing Jay for the next 4-5 months. Also because Dasilva would have linked up with the technical play of Kasey, Nagy and Massengo beautifully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Balls Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Rowe is clearly not a left back, and a back 4 doesn’t suit him, but much like Joe Bryan previously, he is a good enough all round player to be able to slot in at left wing back. He is clearly a midfielder who likes to get forward and 2 goals in 6 games, plus getting the penalty award at Hull, is a great return. In the second half, the ball he got from Weimann, then played at speed back towards Weimann in the box, deserved a touch on it and a goal. And when called upon to replace Massengo, he looked fine in central midfield. As free transfers go, he might not quite be Pukki, but I would suggest that LJ is currently counting his lucky stars that he picked him up for nothing.

ExiledAjax Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Seems to have excellent tactical intelligence on top of his natural fitness, application and affability. He adjusts well when we change shape and although may be limited as a tackler his positional sense as a LB seems solid. I saw him in pre-season and had quiet high hopes. He now is showing that he's just the kind of senior player this side needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
