2018/19 Jonjoe Kenny

[mkrudden]

Of course he isn't a world beater.

But if we are going to play the game Silva wants us to - confident on the ball and aggressive off it - then performances like that show he may well be suited.

Can we just give credit where credit is due?

 

[MikeH72]

It’s always world class or not good enough these days

Take Richarlison who was deffo leaving us for Barcelona a few months back and is now a useless diving crybaby.

 

[Big Fat Sam]

It’s always world class or not good enough these days

Is it? How silly. I've never ever read that anywhere. Can you show me where somebody is saying that?

 

[blueconverse]

I know he captained the U23's and seems more outspoken than Davies.If he can nail down a starting place for next season wouldn't mind seeing him as captain for a few games. None of the senior members are stepping up.

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Reckon he'll be our first choice right back next year.

 

[Blue Roo]

Sane made most of the right backs look like fools this season.
But not our lid.

There was all this talk about transition through the first half of the season.
Replaced, and rightly so, by a false dawn judgment.

Well last night I saw and felt real and proper hope and substance.
One foundation stone being layed.

I don't care whether he's world class or 1st division 'quality'.
Whether he's got razzle dazzle and silky moves.

I care bc he cares.
I believe bc he believes.

I'd have him represent us, than Wan Bissaka coming in on a fat cheque, any day.
Going by what we've seen so far WB would wilt like the rest of em.
Not JJ, we already know what he's got.
And what that is can't necessarily be bought.

We don't need superstars everywhere on the pitch - this never really works and certainly not transplanting approach into a unique club like ours.
Ours should not be a plastic surgery type of transformation.

Yes, we need something special on the right wing.
But he'll be all the more special for having a player like JJ behind.
This is how good sides come to pass, the superstars rely on the meat and potatoes.

There we go. Same as your opinion too, by the way, Sir. People rate some players while others don't rate 'um. Doesn't make you a better/worse fan, or even a bit of a nob or anything of the like. He may improve. I hope he does and would love him to be the next Coleman, but I don't see it. Would love to be proven wrong.

I think the difference in attitude is that the ones being supportive are not saying he's going to be the next best thing, they are saying it's way too early to know either way, the 'haters' have already made their mind up that he is League 1 standard, massive difference.

Oh come on, that's literally the undertone of every single player thread.

Is this a poem? An ode to Kenny?

 

[StateSideToffee]

Very solid performance; and more importantly, his effort and passion are obvious.

I’d like to see him played with Davies in that right CM pivot spot; and Lookman ahead on the RW.

Walcott’s constant turnovers made life difficult for JJ at times.

Why would he be put in centre mid, as if he doesn't get enough grief in his natural position lol

 

[Paulie]

I thought he was brilliant yesterday. Would be nice to see him with a winger in front that can actually pin the opposition back and take pressure off him. Give him and Lookman until the end of the season to form an understanding.

A love letter perhaps lol
Just loved seeing that performance. Warmed the cockles.

 

[Deco]

Not put a foot wrong in his couple of appearances. Worth giving a chance to for sure.

Reminds me of old GOT, this.

Well in.
