2017/18 Cuco Martina

[granter79]

He's bang average

 

[ijjysmith]

Exactly what the Saints fans said he was.

You just never know if he's going to be alright or utter dirge.

It depends on when he is faced with a fast winger v him that's my worry he looks cumbersome defensively!
Playing those lot tonight he looked very good going forwards a great crosser of the ball but is he a full back?

I don't see what he did that would say he played well? He wasn't tested? He can't defend and he's a defender

Southampton released him at 27 when your meant to hit your peak. That's all we need to know

On the flip side.. Everton signed him at 27 in his peak. That's all you need to know you negative nancy

His crossing needs to be worked on but he's not that bad... lol so far

..what??

His crossing is generally really good! He put in some cracking balls tonight.

He makes some very nice runs too.

The main issue I have with him is he looks really quick when he gets going but he just saunters back when an attack breaks down.

I thought some of his crossing mate was either to deep or to you know high for our 6 foot Giants lol but that aside he's deffo doing ok

He put one bad one in which went over to Baines.

If some of our players took a risk or two in the box we could have scored a few more with his crosses in. He properly whips them in hard and in decent places. Nobody is going to get every cross spot on. His good to crap ratio on them is pretty high in favour though so far.

Well he's not as bad as people have made out but he needs to be tested more and I'm sure he will be. Koeman sees something in him so i trust koeman

 

[tadpole]

Really good to see him putting so many decent crosses into the box.

Yes he still has questions to answer against his defending, I think he did enough tonight to earn a start on Monday, so that will be a huge test for him.

 

[Andy_Oz]

Looks like he can do a job against that level of opposition at the very least. Thought he did fine going forward and defensively didn't look as bad as some suggested he would.
Some of the shouts for him getting in Lookman's way I don't totally agree with. Thought that was pretty 50/50 between the two of them - Not sure of what each other was going to do. Should get a better understanding going if they play together more.

 

[Woolly Blue]

Did all right.

Shame it's not April or I could make a pun about it being the first Cuco of Spring.
