He provides energy and gives something but he's struggles to get a real essence of the play on 90mins.His sending off v palace was down to his effort in doing something he not so good at. Twice ! Booked for challenges .Ideally play him high up the pitch and keep him there.
Id sell him and try get harry Wilson in the summer personally if we stay up

I could see them selling him as well... they did with Solanke, Ibe, Kent and other young players they had no place for, and he's not displacing Mane or Salah anytime soon.

Elmo and Taylor have experience but aren't as good as Guilbert and Targett so we lose as much as we gain by playing them. Drinkwater has loads of experience but isn't fit enough to be an upgrade and trying to get him fit hasn't helped with results.So long as we stay up (and I really do think we will) all of the players who joined in the summer will have a better idea of what playing in this league means and we'll have a summer to work on improving them as well as adding quality to the squad. If players still don't look up to it by November-ish than I think we can say they're not suited to the league and look at moving them on but as it stands the only player from the summer I'd be ok to see leave is Jota and that's purely because if a 28/29 year old isn't making matchday squads then I don't see the point in keeping them, The same applies to Taylor and Lansbury (I know they do sometimes make the squad but they're not regulars).How has trez shown any remote potential than traore had? You could see traore had a hell of a lot of potential when he came but was poorly utilised by sherwood. Also he came raw from barcelona. If im not mistaken he was 19 as well. Trez is older. This teams a lot better than the one traore came in from.I think there is absolutely no comparison between those two tbh.The comparison isn't about potential or overall ability, Traore was raw and we expected too much so when he didn't deliver what we hoped he got written off as shit. With Trez it's similar, I think people saw comments from egyptian fans and heard about his following and expected him to be great. From that he clearly hasn't been as good as we hoped but he's still scored some important goals and got some key assists, for me the biggest problem is that he's just trying too hard.

Hardly goal of the season - i have seen better.
Are all the covid games footage going to be shot from a zoomed out perspective? I can't see shit. The camera won't catch the virus from doing close-ups...
Rest assured the broadcasts and cameras will have the usual . This zoomed out filming was merely due to it being a literal behind close doors friendly.As the score line is irrelevant and the focus is on match fitness then having any major camera operators in didn't seem necessary.Though I imagine Smith had it filmed and will watch clips back there ll be little for public broadcast.Agree it's so far away gives a sort of spy element to it ! However I think in 2020 drones and camera work should be close up and clearer even with social distancing rules On that Grealish goal was hard to see it clearly hit the net the other day.

I couldn't tell if it hit the net plus the players didn't seem to acknowledge it? Was a bit odd. I know the proper cameras will be in use once the prem games resume but i thought as the club had gone to the bother of filming the games, even for fitness reviewing purposes, it would be done better? I know nitpicking here but i'm just puzzled by it.
