TDarwall Posted August 29, 2023 Report Share Posted August 29, 2023 It was also nice to see Bobby Reid was captain for Fulham at the weekend. It does demonstrate that the development of a player is rarely linear. Not sure many would have suggested Bobby was a future captain of a Prem team. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Engvall’s Splinter Posted August 29, 2023 Report Share Posted August 29, 2023 Once he sorts his final ball we could really see a lumpy sell on. Real dangerous, powerful yet awkward style. Good to watch when running at pace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real dangerous, powerful yet awkward style. Good to watch when running at pace. His combination of pace and power frightens defenders at any level. As he gains experience against top class defenders and adds more final product he could have a great career at top level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted December 27, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 (edited) Seems we weren't the only ones with a penalty drought. Bournemouth 609 days!! Semenyo broke that yesterday, won it. Bournemouth fan I know loves Semenyo..hasn't mentioned Scott much yet but I guess Scott had frequently been injured so he hasn't seen anything like his full range.

Mr Popodopolous Posted December 27, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2023 Interesting Tweet too, assume it is some analyst type- what do we think. I remember pace, power, goals and assists but surely he was capable of carrying it here? Remember him being fairly unplayable v Birmingham in one of his penultimate game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirsikka Posted December 29, 2023 Report Share Posted December 29, 2023 Semenyo has been absolutely brilliant so far this season. You can judge how well he is doing by who he is keeping out of the starting eleven - David Brooks, Dango Outtara (£20m young winger signed from France) and Luis Sinisterra, who was one of the best players for Leeds last season in the Premier League. The demands the system puts on the wide forwards mean the manager will almost always replace them to keep energy levels up in those positions, so don't be distracted by him getting subbed in almost every match. That's simply the way it works. He'll be going to AFCON soon so will be giving up that starting place which is always a risk but he has to be pleased with how well he's adapted to the pace of the Premier League. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw he was in the initial 55 man squad (unsurprisingly!) but do you think he`ll make the cut? I presume he will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledAjax Posted January 4 Report Share Posted January 4 He has travelled (as has Wollacott). I'm not sure if there's a payment scheme for continental competitions as there is for the world cup, but we might get something for this call up, either direct from AFCON or as a bonus in his transfer agreement.
