i_am_red Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Have been very critical of him but today I thought he played well and showed class, unlucky not to score after a great save from their keeper and selfless play to set up showumni. Hopefully this may be the start of a good patch of form as it's obvious he plays better with a big man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this may be the start of a good patch of form as it's obvious he plays better with a big man!i completely disagree with that statement, Jevons was awful today, he makes it look good by moving about alot on the pitch, he should have buried the 1 chance he had, i feel a spell in the reserves or somewhere where he can recapture the goal scoring ability would do his confidence the power of good.

East End Lad Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 I thought Jevons put in a average performance today. Nothing special, should of burried his first chance easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its been hard for Jevons to play along side JMW, but today with Enoch his overall performance was anything but awful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezgimed Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Apart from setting up the goal I think he was awful.The chance he had was as clear cut as any and any average striker in this League (Vernon, Porter, Fallon, The Chief, Hall etc) would have burried it.He needs something to boost his confidence in front of goal because he was shocking today.

Robbored Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Jevons started playing wide left and was largely anonymous untill he and Myrie-Williams swopped around.After that he did ok and was responsible for Showumni's goal.His second half performance deserves some credit.Possibly the best I've seen of him thus far.

dezgimed Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Another negative is his bottling out of challenges.I'd say more often than not today, Gillingham were able to break at us due to Jevons bottling out of a very winnable 50/50 challenge.He simply turns his back, jumps and sticks in a heel, and its pathetic.Personally tackling is part of the fun of football so god knows what hes thinking.

candygram for mongo Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Jevons did very well for Enoch's goal but other than that he was poor.I think he is not an "out & out" forward as he is certainly not the bravest, he is abysmal in the air and generally does not look like scoring in open play.What really annoys me is how easy it is to brush him off the ball, at this level you need your forwards to be strong and willing to run through brick walls, lightweight clever players MIGHT do well in a higher standard with better players around them, but at the moment Jevons is nowhere near the standard required.

Guest Jan Mollars Gloves Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Jevons worked his socks off today.Didn't impress so much on the left early on, but when he went more central, he was prepared to run at the Gills defence & we looked far more threatening.

dezgimed Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 What angers me is I actually rate the bugger, I know how capable he is in front of goal and at dead ball situations yet he isnt showing us what he can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enoch isnt even fully match fit, and made Jevo look very average.Are you sure your not talking about lee johnson????because when it comes to bottling tackles lees your manSpot on that man, Citys other weak player today.

dezgimed Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 I think Johnson put himself about today, remember hes a foot shorter than the others.He certainly goes up for, and wins, more headers than Jevo and does more tackling than that fairy Russell.

icamanicity Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 Until we get closure on the st----t farce, so called fans will nit pick at jevons and also the johnsons and generally have digs at the team, what is it some sort of crusade, mission,i don't know ,but there are some unhappy bunnies around that wont shut up until jevons the johnsons are gone and the above restored to the team, thats the way i see it. I for one will be glad when it is sorted and we can watch the boys and give an unbias view of the game without the st----t factor... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rednready Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 We have a midfielder already taller than johnson, quicker than Johnson, can pass as well as Johnson, can actually score goals and tackle, plus, quoted by GJ as being very close to selection. Thats Frankie Artus, and the only thing keeping him from selection is his surname. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MaccaJK Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 agree.the blokes been on bad form thats just it, it happens to all players. although i thought yesterday was still below par i can see a definate improvement. superb play to set up enoch aswell.

Andy Horsman Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 I thought Jevo had one of his best games for us, he worked really hard, but is not going to create a great deal, when at one stage he was back covering for McAllister.He is too often too deep and lacks pace to then make sure he is in the danger zone.Enoch was ok, but obviously needs match fitness.The problem today was in midfield.Skuse was ok, Myrie-Williams is the new Marvin Brown, Johnson was the joint worst player on the park with th equally abysmal Russell. We were totally overran at times and Johnson seemed incapable of finding another red shirt, while Russell must have spent half the game spinning about to see where the ball ended up after it skewed off his boots.I'm keep coming back to this theme, and whilst I appreciate and to an extent agree with the clamour for wide men and another striker, I think our momentum could be undone on mid-winter pitches with such lightweight central midfielders.We need some grit ala Tommy at his peak.Still 3-1 playing indifferently aint too bad, bet this would all read differently bar those 2 late goals!!!!!

bcfcryan_88 Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 i fought he awful aswell apart from setting up showumni's 'cool' finish he should be given more time on the bench if he carries on as he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
