Wiltsred14 Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 (edited) Looking at the assists table to date shows that Semenyo has had a significant impact in terms of goals/assists per game, when compared to higher profile Championship players. Happy to be challenged, but he’s like looking like one of the most productive forwards in the Championship. What level do you think he could get to? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/championship/top-scorers/assists Edited February 22, 2022 by Wiltsred14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedNachos Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 Hard worker, seems to have his head screwed on and bags of ability. Could be a premier league starter in a couple of years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiltshire robin Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 If you asked me a couple months ago I’d say not very high but the way he’s played since who knows. His strength at times tonight was top level and game by game he just seems to be getting better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tin Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 I thought he was below par tonight, partly due to the exceptionally high standards he’s set himself recently. I still can’t get my head around why he didn’t square it for Weimann to tap in. That said, his rate of development is extraordinary. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t think of anyone in recent times who has made such an impact at championship level, with the potential to perform higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRedRobin Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 I don't think Semenyo had the best game this evening. We know what he is capable of. He is a great talent though and we need to try whatever we can to keep hold of him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grifty Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 He had a bit of a stinker by his own recent standards, but still hit the bar, and almost created a couple of chances. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 Actually thought Martin was the best of the forward players tonight. Won so much in the air. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 Semenyo, pulled, grabbed, pushed all night by Hyam and McFadzean. Ref missed so many fouls. Still did fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What level do you think he could get to? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/championship/top-scorers/assists Well, Premier League for sure. If you look at one of the teams rumoured (are) interested in him, Palace. They currently have Jordan Ayew playing in a very similar position. Ayew has scored once this season, in 28 appearances (mostly starts) for Palace. Semenyo is 8 years younger than him, quicker than him, bigger than him, can score with both feet (with power) and can turn his man on a sixpence with his back to goal. He also contributes massively in the assists department. He is arguably already a better player than Ayew at 22, and Ayew has had a very decent career with well over 150 Premier League appearances. Hopefully this indicates where the kid is and why City will be holding out for £20m + for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of interest, watching the u23s earlier….Ollie Thomas came on and looked like he might be the next Antoine. Anyone sen much of him in the u18s. Think he came on v Charlton for the u23s recently.

That’ll be his next challenge . Teams know about him & will target him now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent comparison - although I think Ayew has only participated in 22 league games and one cup game this season, including sub appearances - not that it matters much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said elsewhere, was calling for balls over the top, he would have murdered the CB's given space to run into and an early ball. Just never came. Got to add, what a header up so high and smashed the bar. Won a good few flicks too. 10 hours ago, Kid in the Riot said: Well, Premier League for sure.

He showed in a cameo at Preston that he could do it, I always thought he needed to be consistent and to learn the subtleties . He seems a little more relaxed, and if he can take that further he will get better again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still did fine. There was one in particular I recall 2nd half that was so clear cut near their box, could not be anything other than a free kick- yet it wasn't! Same phase of play that there was a possible penalty- depends on whether handball or ball to hand- from a shot by Massengo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
