Arouna Kone

[Eggs]

He was good in the first half but, like the rest of the team, was a non-entity in the second. The result isn't his fault like. Maybe McCarthy's injury is karma's way of slapping us about for laughing at Payet

....that's very fair, as I say I didn't watch the first half.

 

[Khalekan]

I thought that was the worst game he has had since his renaissance this season.

 

[Goat]

Poor game today.

 

[Prevenger17]

Striker playing out wide.

Doesn't help Galloway sadly. Been left a bit exposed.

Tbf, it had been working up until now.

Depends on the opposition.

Kone's almost a luxury player. If we are bossing a game then he certainly does a good job and makes Lukaku better.

If we're up against it then he's not that useful for me.

Was decent until he tired, and was then useless.

I think he's been very good all over the pitch. He clearly ran out of legs, would certainly give him a mid-week rest, but he's made a significant contribution to our season so far.

Oh absolutely. He's surpassed all our expectations.

Just reckon there's a time for him and a time for someone else. Doubt he'll play Tuesday as you say.

What's the options though? I'd rather we rested Lukaku and pushed him up top on his own.

 

[Pacman]

Got his contract now watch the slide. Should be Mirallas from now on think he's chomping at the bit and gives us that extra threat with His Pace.

I guess it's Mirallas who offers a bit more than Kone going back (not a lot!), Lennon maybe, I'm wondering why we even bothered getting him back.

Dunno really.

Not really, yeah he had a bad one today but so did a lot of other players, Roberto should of been watching the game and seen he needed to come off.

When playing away would prefer to have Cleverley on the left, with Kone playing there at home.

Cleverley going to be a bit rusty though after several weeks out.

Yeah Mirallas for Tuesday but not for Lukaku for me, instead of and besides Kone, that's what I'd prefer myself anyway.

Forgot about Clevz to be fair.
