Yannick Bolasie

[mutley]

I just hope he doesn't end up a sort of Peter Beagrie type player.
Beats people time after time but has no end product.

He's not that type of player mate, he powers past people.

maybe he will make lukaku a better player

In fairness Baines' interplay with everybody bar Pienaar has been pretty non-existent - Kev, Lennon, Del, Barks, Clev - all failed.

Rm's fault. He had obviously asked Baines to hold back a bit.

He's best described as a player who no-one knows what he's going to next - including him.

His pace and direct approach frightens the opposition and they often doubled up on him as a result, which leaves space for others. When those 'others' are durge like that nodder Chamakh, McArthur and Murray, compared to Ross, Rom and maybe Mata............

It sounds good when you out it that way. The reality, unfortunately, will probably be Bolasie head down and bumping into a thicket of defenders legs who deal with him no problem.

Ye maybe Ashley Young will make Ibrahimovic a better player at Utd as well

At least he will suck defenders in. We have missed someone who can do that on the left for a while, Pienaar maybe the last.

Not blaming any of the players mate - or even Martinez/Koeman. It's just that Baines and Pienaar had this almost telepathic understanding but equally none of our wide players since have been in the same mould as Pienaar.

It's why Mata would be such astute signing as well IMO, but Koeman may well be looking to go in a different direction.

Btw, Baines still gets forward and did under RM, but he was never played in as nobody was in that little pocket that Pienaar always picked up which in turn opened up the space for Baines to run into.

Filthy. Great ball at the end as well to pick that pass. Thought everyone said he didn't do that? That same ball to Ross or Rom is far more likely a goal.

agree to a certain extent. Defo feel that he had more license to go forward under DM than RM, same with Seamy too.

At least he won't be nicking penalties and missing them....I like the fact we are signing someone who is a bit crackers at football!

 

[davek]

good to see you back mate

Thanks mate.

Bolasie for Mirallas - works for me.

think they had license to go forward mate, but in the last two seasons we mainly tried to play it through the middle, bar a little spell when Del was in the side.
