Has to start against Liverpool. 4-3-3 with him, Jack and Gil in front of Veretout, Gana (if fit, if not, Westwood) and Sanchez.

Much better from him. Works hard and is physically strong too. Far better option than Gab.

He'll score against the rags tomorrow.

I was sort of right, i'm claiming it any way!

He was very good tonight.

Thought he was class tonight.
Didn't think he had that in his locker.

Showed great work-rate and a desire to track back too. Very pleasing.

The most important thing for me tonight was that he wanted to be involved in the game and didn't hide, which would have been the easy thing for him to do.  His performance was the exact opposite to Gabby.

I've seen glimpses over his skills in his previous appearances but he hasn't looked confident, settled or simply good enough...tonight was the first time he's stepped up with skills and pace...theres clearly a player in there. Give him time. The lad will come good.

Hopefully tonight we saw something approaching the real Ayew. Imagine being a defender facing him, Adama and Jack all in full flow.

He showed some lovely touches tonight, and some real class against players who simply couldn't deal with his skills.
Incredibly impressed with his work rate as well - didn't think he had that in him from what I've seen so far.
Couldn't quite work out what position/role he was playing as one minute he was beating 4 players and nearly scoring, and the next he was tracking back and tackling on our own dead ball line.
He played as if the game meant something to him.

More of this please!

Agree Frank. Loved his attitude. It's just a shame we can't play SMA every week. At least with the cheers from the Holte, he may start feeling he belongs and more importantly his confidence grows.

Yes you have summed it up for me. They couldn't cope with his skill and guile that critics could easily put that down to playing a rubbish team however no one can knock his desire and work rate. Well done Jordon and now let's see that week in week out.

Was really impressed with Ayew when he came on. The wide right role really suits him. There is a player in there somewhere.

go on then, you were right,

I was impressed with him last night, and as said above the holts (i think) even started chanting his name, always a good sign.
