Again looks like a player

Neil's gets better every time I see him .hope he has a great future in the Royal Blue jersey.

I will believe that a team wants to pay actual money for Bernard when he's holding that sides shirt up and not a moment before. Until then we are stuck with him.

This Niels fella will be playing Ligue 2 in 2 years.

He might well be. But he's not playing instead of guys who should be in Ligue 2 right now.

That's fine. It still is Carlo going to Godfrey first.

....because the situation demanded it. The lad had just gone past Digne like he wasn’t there & Digne threw up his arms in resignation. I’m sure in different circumstances he might well have brought Nkounkou on as a direct replacement for Digne.

I actually thought that substitution help turn the game. Mina looked very assured and Godfrey dealt with the threat.

The more you rate him, the more I hate him.

 

[Nymzee]

He's very rusty remember. His last minutes for anyone (first and U23's) was the start of November and then before that September.

 

[Mozza1987]

Has to be getting more chances in the first team. Has pace and can put in quality crosses.

The situation hasn't necessarily demanded it for the entire length of Digne's injury though. It was more of the same.

 

[Caolam]

He did look good today and fair play to him but the rest of the team set the bar very low.

Goat???

Nkonkou is not ready to play full back yet but I think is ready to contribute from the wing.
Seamus started his career in the same way.

I agree, still shakey defensively, but has the pace and the cross to be a LW option. Shown more than Gordon in that spot.

 

[Sheedy's right knee.]

I agree I think he could be an option higher up the pitch. Athletic and looks a decent footballer. But more Discipline required to play fullback.

 

[Cels]

I felt Niels Nkounkou had a decent enough game against Rotherham, with some very direct, positive play from the lad.
