Yannick Bolasie

[nsno-chris]

To be honest I only stuck the game on after about 60mins and saw his goal and then him losing the ball and overhitting crosses...

He did have a good shot though from 30 yards out which would never have beaten a premier league keeper.

You missed the first half where he ran into people, did a couple of step overs and...well that was about it

 

[LABlue2]

He's incredibly hot or cold but he's been our most productive winger this season so deserves to keep starting

Put in some great crosses in the 10-20 minutes after his goal

 

[Stephenlloyd]

I think hes an absolute donkey and a goal today plus one of his random crosses getting an assist every so often wont change my mind.

Redmond has been good for southampton this season and was £18mil cheaper.

I cant believe we signed this guy, anyone whose seen him play or even just looked at his stats can see that hes not worth the money and wont deliver for us.

Deulofeu 1st half of last season was top class and is not getting a run of games to get his confidence back up due to this donkey.

Just adds to my anti-Koeman stance i suppose.

I wasn't excited by this signing either. He's not a bad player, but can't see him improving much at 28. I do think Koeman will play him week in week out. Because he bought him, all managers do this.

No that keen on geri or Kev too. And think they will by gone next year.

To many of our attacking players. Play as individuals, to many flicks and tricks, not team players. Also not enough goals in our team. I know bolasie scored today. But he won't get that many, nor will geri, mirralas has got 10+ in the past, but he's really struggling at the moment. Maybe a hang over from last season. And Ross obviously struggling too.

You look at the [Poor language removed], one of there individuals I.E. sturidge can't get a game. And we have 3/4 playing every week.

I know it's a big if, but you take Ross out today abs one of the wingers. And have say mata? And a top class attacker with a brain. We probably win comfortably.

 

[Woolly Blue]

Did some good things and some poor things today so, in short, he's like most wingers.

Took his goal well, at least I assume he did because the view from most of the Fishwick stand is bloody poor.

It's not his fault transfer fees have gone mental.

Thats what makes him worth £28million I suppose.

Makes no sense to me for Barkley be in an advanced position. Weve got Gana and Barry both deep with Gana being box to box i suppose but he should really be the defensive midfielder with Barkley alongside him.

Barkley could then run forward with the ball and have more space which its clear that he needs.

We then have 3 slots for new players to come into.

 

[BlueToff]

Thats what makes him worth £28million I suppose.

a) he doesn't set the price - we were willing to pay it

b) he didn't cost that much

c) he's got 3 assists and a goal in 8 league games.

That's a better return than Kev and Del.

I ain't no big fan of Bolasie...but he's doing a lot more than Mirallas. A lot more.

People talk about Barkley not beating players and driving forward...I can't remember the last time Kev did it.

 

[ijjysmith]

Just like most of the others can only seem to perform for one half of a match.

I have no idea what you see in him.

Mirallas has been poor but hasnt looked very good in a couple of years.

Which is a problem. Our attack of full of 1 in 10 players.

We all knew we needed another forward in the summer, in fact any opposition manager knew that without lukaku we have nothing.

In the entire window the best we came up with was Enner Valencia on loan and some links to overpriced low quality foreigners.

Its pathetic.

If i wasnt so tired at 413am id name a handful of u25 foreign wingers we could have gone for...instead we sign bolasie and play mirallas...beggars belief.

You want to try watching in with the locals they all stand up even two rows from the front the six fingered freaks.

 

[Alan Whittle]

Well in Yannick. Could have done with you today.
