Aaron Lennon ( On Loan January 2015 )

[Adam_EFC]

If he carries on like last night I'd definitely sign him. Fantastic effort, even managed to win a header and he's only 4"2. Like Naismith he's not great but he gets himself about and earned us a deserved penalty. Obviously done their heads in enough for Coloccini to try sever his legs as well.

I'm still unsure at £5m.

£4m sounds a bit more like it.

Yeah for the right price, if he puts in more hard working shifts like yesterday, I'm all for keeping him around. His work rate drove Newcastle mad.

 

[blue61]

His work rate has never been in doubt over his career. I thought he was superb yesterday, there were a few times where things didn't come off for him, but he didn't let his head drop once and the double tackle/block he made late in the first half when we were having a bit of a wobble got the crowd behind the team. If we replaced McGeady and Mirallas with Lennon and Deulofeu for a few million on top, I'd be a happy chappy.

 

[Jimmywhack]

He worked his teds off yesterday but his quality was still lacking, hopefully that will come!

 

[Azzurri]

Not "won't" use him.

Can't.

He is cup tied.

I'd say Atsu could do what you are advocating, though

That's two.

 

[Jason Allen]

I hate to say I all told you so...

 

[Caolam]

If he could deliver a final pass we wouldn't be able to afford him. If he proves his desire to play for us over the closing games I would offer 3 million.

I like him but I think he's still yet to create anything close to an end-product for us. He's incredibly fast and his pace drew the 2 fouls that secured the 3 points against Newcastle, but I'm not sure how much we want to spend on a winger who can't cross or shoot.

Not sure about that mate. Several really good pull backs against Newcastle that could've all resulted in goals. Barkley should've scored from one of them.

 

[bluemangroup]

I'd buy him for many moneys

 

[steken1]

Not a single wide player has put half as much effort in for us this season as he did. I was made up with him.

Him or Hailie Bolassie Ai at Palace?

This

Aside from the Newcastle game, he hasn't really showed us anything yet, apart from his blistering pace. He works hard every game, but he needs to start delivering.

Him or Hailie Bolassie Ai at Palace?

I dunno really. Think we could do better than both but depends on whether Kev goes or not. Bola die could be good or horrible. Nothing in between.
